Nakajima Type 11, Early production (Irving), Tamiya 1/48
Okay, I must admit I had forgotten what Tamiya stands for. Abundance of detail, no flash, perfect fit (I didn't use any glue for the landing gear...).
I used Eduard's p.e. set, a value for money set that provides lots of extra details. I [...]

Happy New Year everyone! Here is a kit I completed sometime around 2005 or 2006. I don't really watch MotoGP or any other motorcycle racing, but I was somehow interested in this Tamiya kit. It is the only motorcycle I have ever built so [...]
Tamiya 1/48 P-47M

This is my first finished project this year, the very well known and praised Tamiya P-47 1/48 kit. Nothing to add, really, a superb kit. Only some small stencils did not behave well and...disintegrated. C'est la vie!
