PATRICK FROM THE SANDS

Fantastic result...the weathering is perfect!

Whaooo! that's awesome! love it!

Excellent...and very instructive! I didn't know that ADC Grey was also applied to transport aircraft. Thanks for sharing!

Magnificent! I am currently finishing the Valom "A" version, disappointing...

A beautiful rendition of Pips aircraft! Excellent 72eme, as usual!

Very nice! the Italeri F-100, despite its age, remains to my opinion the best F-100 at that scale considering the flaws of the Trumpeter one...Your models are just superb!

As usual, a masterpiece!

Very nice! It reminds me the hard work I did to convert a Meng F-102A to a TF using the Grand Model resin kit...everything was wrong, from shape to size, never ever again! Yours is very convincing!

Very nice Zipper! The NMF is top class! I built the same Revell kit a while ago and I found quite a bunch of errors, the major one is that the fuselage is too short by 5mm. I did a heavy surgery to correct that, just to find out that the Italeri one is the best "C" model at that scale...so finally I built both of them!

Just awesome! Grand Bravo!

Hello Fellow Modelers! Let me present you my last WWII single engine warplane, restored: the Revell P-51B. This kit was quite good at its time, but is now outclassed by the great Arma Hobby Mustang. Among the major flaws, the wheel wells are not deep enough, the canopy has a weird shape, an minimalistic cockpit and I found the propeller and its spinner strange. So I corrected all these errors, the canopy is from Falcon (very difficult to graft on the kit, used some extra parts from a Tamiya P-51 done long time ago (wheels, prop and spinner). A time consuming work for a final result not so great... However I did that for my son, and thanks God the series is finished! For the paint job, I have elected to keep the CBI flavor. I found a nice P-51 picture on Internet, belonging to the 23rd FG with an aggressive shark mouth. But as I removed all decals during the restoration process, I had no other option than to manually paint it. All other markings come from my decals surplus box. Weathering is plenty, these machine received severe punishment from the CBI climate. Here is the true Mustang: ...and mine: That's it, thank you for watching!

Superb! I am curious to know if these F-5 from DM are really better than the Italeri ones and good value for money. At first glance it seems that the depth of the wheel well has not been enhanced (major flaw on the Italeri version) and your comments about the cockpit is not encouraging... However, yours is top class!

Very nice looking Thud. I did the Monogram one long time ago, seems that the Revell one is from the same mould. I should have put some weathering under the fuselage, these beasts were intensively used in Vietnam, but this is a personal opinion, as you kit is very convincing.

Superb Mirage! your paint job is just top class! I don't know what are the pro and cons of the Dream Models compared to ModelSvist but at first glance the radome hardeners seem a little bit too heavy on the DM...

Superb paint job on your Dagger! Your beautiful kit reminds me all the hassles I had wrestling with it, trying to correct all the flaws and by detailing the weapons bay.
