1/48 AA FBC-1 ("Soaring Flying The Leopard")
This is a BIG aircraft, and a very basic, inexpensive kit of a Chinese fighter in demonstration team colors. Everything about this kit is minimal, including detail and decals, but the overall size is impressive, and it looks [...]
1/32 Trumpeter P-47N “Too Big and Too Heavy”
P-47N-1 of the 318th FG, from the Trumpeter 1/32 kit with Zotz decals.
In March 1945, the 318th became the first fighter group to re-equip with the new P-47N-1 Thunderbolt. Following the invasion of Okinawa, the unit's ground component [...]
Supermarine Attacker from Trumpeter in 1/48 scale
Still keen on the Fleet Air Arm; I've just finished one of Trumpeter's latest. The Attacker didn't quite make its mark as noticeably as the USN Banshee & Panther although similar in performance. The tailwheel undercarriage wasn't a [...]
1st finished since the move
This is the Trumpeter 155 M198 howitzer #02306, nice kit, goes together well, no real problems. Kit has some photo etch, no metal barrel though. Built OOB, painted with Vallejo 70.819 IRAQUI SAND. First time using their paint and first [...]

Trumpeter 1/32 F8F-1 Bearcat
This is my first submission to I-Modeler. This is an OOB build. This Bearcat is the Air Group Commander's aircraft of VF-19 during 1947 I enjoyed doing this kit as it is one of my favorite airplanes. Painted it with Model Master enamels [...]
US Coast Guard LCM(6) 1985
LCM(6) USCG Cable Repair Boat. Another version of the LCM by Trumpeter.
The US Coat Guard utilized a number of LCM(6) as cable repair craft, used to string power line transmission cables as well as telephone to off shore lighthouses. These [...]
Trumpeter MiG-15 in 1/32 scale
This one is an early (very early) Trumpeter release, generously given to me by a friend who chickened out when he opened the box. This is not intended to be unfair to Trumpeter, who have given us some superb kits, but like with any 'new [...]
