Trumpeter T-38C Talon, 1/48

Hello again iModeler! Here is my Trumpeter T-38C Talon, built completely OOB. This was a fun kit and I had no problems with it during construction. I purchased and built this kit last summer, so it did not stay idle in my stash for long. [...]

A-7 Corsair II

These A-7s belonged to the Colorado Air Guard’s 140 TFG and Oklahoma’s 138 TFG. A-7s were the first live aircraft I worked on as an “ Airframe Repair Specialist”, as the Air Force liked to call people like me. The aircraft with [...]

P-47 Razorback Tamiya 1/48 "Jabo"

P-47 Razorback Tamiya in 1/48 scale (Kit # 61086) I decided to represent this aircraft from the 509th Fighter Squadron, 405th Fighter Group. This aircraft (P-47D-22-RE) was flown by the 1st Lt. Bob Hartmann. I have always loved this scheme [...]

Hasegawa 1/48 F-15C USAF Aggressor

Hello! I've always liked Aggressor's scheme for the Eagles, so as soon I got a F-15C kit, I went after the right decal set for this scale. They're from Two Bobs and everything else is OOB. I scratch built the ACMI pod from a AIM-9, so this [...]

Cursed F-15C Build

This build was cursed. That is all. Problems were mostly caused by my own clumsiness, not the GWH kit, which in terms of fit and surface detail is fantastic. Dropped the model, breaking a stabiliser and meaning I had to redo the first [...]

Revell F-86F

All raised details have been rescribed, a lot of scratch inside the cockpit because it was completly wrong for the F model of the aircraft, hypodermic needle pitot tube, movable flaps, fuselage drains drilled and opened, scratch built [...]

USAF Wild Weasel F-16CJ in 1/48

This is a quick three day build of Tamiya's superb quarter scale F-16 series... I've been meaning to do one for years and finally got around to it - a stunning kit that goes together perfectly. Chose the Tiger Meet markings to add a bit [...]

1/72 Esci/AMT USAF F-104 Drone

The 1/72 Esci F-104 kits were re-boxed by AMT. The kits are pretty nice with extra fine recessed panel lines and the option to build the short tail A or C version or the more common long tail version used by most countries except the US [...]

North American P-51-D Mustang "Blondie" WWII USA military aircraft 1:48 TAMIYA model, built out of box + Eduard seatbelts. P-51 Mustang was the most famous American fighter of WW2. Extremely fast and highly manoeuvrable. This [...]

Italeri 1/72 KC-135R Stratotanker, 100th ARW

This is the Italeri KC-135R built out of the box. I used a mixture of kit decals and those from a Wolfpak sheet. I attempted to build this (foolishly) as part of a club Blitz build over a weekend. I almost got there too. A couple of weeks [...]
