  1. I don't really know. I don't know a thing about this aircraft. It does not have the spatted wheels.
  2. Here is Polar Lights B2 Robot from the classic 1960's Sci-Fi show. It remains one of my favorite tv shows from that era. It's a fun kit to make. The clear dome was glued with Future floor wax which dries clear and does not accentuate the seam.
  3. Here is my rendition of the old Frog kit which was issued in the late 60's and early 1970s. I replaced many parts such as the landing gear, cowling, prop and canopy (vac-u-form version) on this model. It's not totally accurate but it is better than a stock build. Thanks for looking.
  4. Here is my rendition of the older but excellent Hasegawa Me262a. Model Master paints.
  5. This is the Aviation Usk 1/72 Ki-10 built out of the box. Aviation Usk kits are short run models but surprisingly after careful cleaning of the parts they fit nicely, including the photo-ecth. Painted with Tamiya XF-14. Kit decals shattered so there are some missing on the kit. The owner of my local hobby shop asked me to build it for him. I gave it to him last week. He gives good deals on old kits.
  6. absolutely Gorgeous model. Well done sir.!
  7. Here's my version of the FROG Me262 done mostly out of the box. I did vac-u-form a new canopy using the original as a master. Nice simple model, which is what I like to build.
  8. Excellent weathering. You have a very nice collection
  9. Thanks Gentlemen for you responses. That's what I was thinking that the spit was either placed or saw it but made up the codes
  10. Excellent weathering, especially on the underbelly. Well done sir.
  11. In this painting by Peter Hurd B-17s arrive at their base following their first mission into Europe. It has all the elements the artist witnessed and is a very good source for the type of vehicles that were in use at that time. But the Spitfire has me confused. Anyone have any idea what squadron it would belong to?
  12. This is the classic Matchbox Me110C/D built out of the box and marked with after market decals. Even for it's simplicity it looks good when built up. No issues at all, just normal filling and sanding. Nothing out of the ordinary.
  13. Thanks. Instructions were vague, but I will keep the info in mind for future builds. Ditto on the number placement.
  14. Thank you. The markings are aftermarket. I think they might have been MicroScale.
  15. This bagged kit was in the stash for many years until I decided to build it last year. It's strictly as is with MicroScale decals. It's a simple kit and was painted with Tamiya spray can silver.
  16. Thank you all for your comments. I need to build another. Anyone know of a sheet with other markings?
  17. Five? That's really neat. Would love to see them when done. Thanks.
  18. Thank you Steve. I appreciate it. It is a simple kit but the dimensions are just fine.
  19. Nice! I didn't realize Tamiya included a trolley for this kit. It looks great with it.
  20. Here is my version of the 50 year old kit from Revell. It is built as the instructions indicated. For it's age it's a fine kit to build.
