    1/72 Heinkel He280 V-2T in Kriegsmarine Service

    Well worth the wait. Someone once said time is relative. And it ain’t a race.

    Making More Realistic 1/24-1/25 Throttle Return Springs

    Another source I’ve used is the winding from a guitar string. A coating of WD40 makes stripping the wire inside the winding easier to remove.

    Custom hauler

    Well after taking time off I’m back Into the hobby. This came from Lindberg’s Dodge L-700 semi kit and one I really wouldn’t recommend. Lots of difficult alignment and fit problems. Rather than do the semi I went a different direction, a car hauler. So chopped the top about 4” 1:1, drop the...

    Canopy colors

    Thanks for the input. Big Don from the local club gave out surgical #11 blades last Christmas now that’s the only thing I’ll use on BMF

    Canopy colors

    You guys are rubbing off on me. I’ve started a 1/72 F6F-5N Hellcat by Dragon. I assume the inside of the canopy frame is interior color. can I get this effect by painting the interior color first and then the outside color over it? Also I’m using bare metal foil as a mask. Has anyone else used...

    Sofia and Moto Guzzi Max, Italian Style

    Those tank dimples definitely give it an Italian flair.

    Stude SNAFU

    Here’s what you get when a car guy hangs out with military guys. I started this along time ago with the idea of a Viper engine in a lakes car but my interest waned and it sat in its box for several years unfinished. Then during a club conversation about the WWII auto industry building planes and...

    Rommel Rod

    This kit has been built and built till all the freshness has been worn off so I decided to move it a new direction. The basic premise is what would Erwin’s shop truck look like if he had a sideline in customs and rods. To lower the stance frame was z-d in front and a equal amount removed for the...

    Bobbed R75

    This is my latest effort. It’s the 1/9 scale of the WWII BMW R75 motorcycle. It was given to me started but with a few parts missing. Rather than follow the box art rendition I put my own spin on it. To disassemble I used the freeze method with fair success. Figuring there would be some breakage...
