Tamiya scale model kits

Tamiya 1/48 Brewster Buffalo

This is my fifth model so I'm still learning quite a bit. This kit in particular is very simple and easy to build, all the parts fit together perfectly, and the decals seemed to be less thick than the ones from my Tamiya Wildcat. Due to [...]

Tamiya 1/48 BF-109 G6

This is my build of Tamiyas 1/48 109! This kit was initially daunting as the instructions included magnets poly caps etc but it was very comprehensible and fell together just as you would expect with tamiya! The fit with the engine cowling [...]

Tamiya 1/48 Spitfire Mk.I

1/48 Tamiya Spitfire Mk.I (Newer kit) built out of box. I had a lot of mess ups along they way on this one no where near perfect they never are for me. Not the kits fault. First time trying freehand camo I couldn't get a really tight [...]

1/35 Char B1 Bis.

This is the excellent Tamiya kit built straight from the box for the most part. I’ve come to enjoy dabbling in simple Tamiya armor kits as a break from airplanes. This one sat on the side of the bench for a couple of years, slowly [...]

Tamiya 1:48 Mitsubishi J2M Raiden ("Lightning Bolt")

This is my take on a legendary J2M Raiden. You've probably seen other builds, profiles and decal sheets of it. Someone heard it from someone else who heard it from another builder who saw a picture of it. This aircraft served with the [...]

This is the 1994 Tamiya kit, built without any modifications or AM other than the decals from Eagle-Cal sheet 48-173. Painted with Tamiya acrylics and Mr. Color lacquers (and Xtracolor enamels for the fabric control surfaces). My third [...]
