What-if modeling

FAA Skyraider Mk.1 & Tow Tractor.

This is a What-if I made a couple of years ago in the markings of a Royal Navy, Fleet Air Arm Skyraider. The Royal Navy had in fact, operated the AD-4W early warning Skyraider, designated AEW.1 and flown by 849 Naval Air Squadron during [...]

Northrop F-20 Tigershark – 1/72 Hasegawa

The F-20 was of course the last of the famous Northrop F-5 line. Regrettably the F-20 did not go into production despite being a superb aircraft In 1983/4 the RNZAF sent a team to the USA to evaluate the F- 20 Tigershark as a possible [...]

And now for something completely different… A “What If”, a “Definite Maybe”, and a “Just Because”!

An update to “What do you do the day after you get a tooth pulled?… You build a crazy build!”

Hi Folks; A few weeks back I posted a build that I did in a day. I got a tooth pulled so it was either doing the build or binge watching "Grey's Anatomy" on Netflix. A few days back I found a few Spanish Ejercito del Aire (Air [...]

What do you do the day after you get a tooth pulled?… You build a crazy build!

So on Wednesday a got a molar pulled because I cracked it. That meant spending the rest of the day in bed. Next day I still couldn't talk, so I stayed home. Feeling kind of sick of being in bed, at around 9 a.m. took out a bagged Ju-87 [...]

Another What-If? - Luftwaffe1946: After much drawn out fighting, the Germans finally capitulate. Leaving behind items such as this D0-335 much abused & repaired Arrow. Replaced wing & lower fin in case you hadn't noticed! Have fun [...]

Hasegawa 1/48 Kyushu J7W1 Shinden (Greased Lightning?)
