Crippled Corsair
If I have to name one plane that I really love and admire, that would be the F4U Corsair, especially the wartime variants. Actually this plane got me into scale modelling. When I was young, I came across with Revell's antic 1:32 Corsair, [...]

Ilyushin Il-2M3 Shturmovik (Tamiya 1:72)
A few months ago @johnb John and @fiveten Spiros came up with a mini group build, building Il-2 Shturmoviks. What started as a duo build, soon evolved into several modellers building theirs and I was lucky enough to participate in this [...]

Another one of my offerings in the Jerry Grandall Tribute Group here on iModeler as organized by Tom Cleaver. I never realized the amount and variety of decals that are offered by EagleCals. That is until I did a little research and then [...]
