Hi all. I present to your attention my new model - F4U-1A CORSAIR from Revell. The plane of the famous pilot Lt. Cdr. John T. “Tommy” Blackburn (VF Squadron, US Navy, Ondongo, Nov.1943)
For me, this model is experimental. I tried to implement my personal improvements and modifications (I used...
Hi good people,
Calling this done, finally after 10 months doing this massive kit. Added lots of aftermarket resins, PE, masks. Quite happy how it turns out. I still need to fix the landing gear as it seems askew, this thing is heavy lol.
Painted in Top Gun scheme with multi camo, well as...
Hi
The engine mount of the airplane is shown here. Some improvements have been made to make the model more detailed. The carrier and the transport carriage have been scratched. Some pieces of the box model have been replaced and they have been made to scratch using aluminum to make the motor...
I have been wanting to start this new aircraft kit for a while now, but wasn't too sure what kind of scheme I wanted to go with, hence my delay on moving forward.

I have Revell's 2015 1/32 FW190F-8 waiting in the wings (heh...get it? waiting in the wings...) and I want to paint it in the scheme that Lorcher's plane was in when he made a break for it with his fiance stashed inside. I dig the story, hence my interest in building one.
This will be my first...

The Panzer IV is complete.
This kit was an exercise in nostalgia for me. In the mid-'70s a friend introduced me to the Monogram Armor Series. My first tank kit was the Sherman Calliope "Screamin' Mimi." After that, I built (in no particular order) the Wirbelwind, a few StuGs, US Halftrack with...
My next project is a nostalgia build: The Monogram 1/32 scale Panzer IV.
Way back when, in those wonderful years known as the '70s, Monogram had their Armor Series kits. There were US, British and German vehicles available. For some crazy reason, these kits were molded in 1/32 scale...
