Mad about World War-II combat aircraft. I specifically hand-paint my models and build in 1/72 scale. Just 7 models under my belt, but I take my time.
I restarted my childhood hobby in '23 at age 60. I still work hard to keep an income so needed an out to de-stress. Here are my babies so far, packed away & now in a container headed to 🇨🇦 where we will be visiting our kids & grandkids for a few years. ETA 6-8 weeks to new home.
If I botch a paint job I’m just gonna label the project “an authentic paint finish” 😂
An authentic Spitfire paint finish would hardly pass muster at a modern air-show.
Found this Grok analysis of the Short Stirling vs Lancaster very interesting... x.com/i/grok/share/R…
The Short Stirling was an absolute monster compared to the AvroLancaster

Anyone seen this level of detailing in their BF109 kits yet😉
Messerschmitt Bf109G-2 Trop, carabiner 98K at RAF Cosford.
Wow here’s something interesting. Haven’t seen a kit with this detailing yet😏

Really nice. One downside with 1/72 is the near impossibility of finding crew and other props to build dioramas with.
Making 04 Japanese Carrier Deck dioramas with 1/48 Japanese Pilots and Ground Support crews in WW2. The carrier deck is our scratchbuilt product, the A6M2 Zero was built from Tamiya, the 1:48 Japanese miniatures were collected from many model kits #probuiltmodel #scalemodel…
That bottom picture would make one heck of a diorama…would definitely clean up at the shows for originality.
About to become very popular? Saab JAS 39 Gripen. Single-engine, delta wing canard config. Multi role. Avionics: Modern, network-centric warfare, advanced datalinks, electronic warfare and can fly from short, unprepared runways. Mach 2 capable.
Interesting stats on which economies grew the most in the 5 years since Covid struck...
Germany is now officially the "Sick man of the world" - the only country that has SHRUNK its economy in real terms in the 5 years since just before Covid19 struck. Neighbors Finland and Austria are not far behind. The US is officially the 9th fastest growing economy. China,…
Here are the Top 1/72 scale Supermarine Spitfire Kits (the most popular 1/72 subject) based on a comprehensive evaluation assisted by Grok3 AI. It's the methodology used to score all TOP30 subjects in my previous post. Note that item-1 and item-3 are "Expert Sets" with PE, resin…
Here is a list of the Top-30 most popular WW2 Aircraft in 1/72 scale as well as the manufacturers with the best interpretations with their latest tooling, ranked into 1st, 2nd and 3rd places. The exercise took me the whole weekend in front of Grok3 to do and all supporting…
This is pretty rad if you ask me👇
Here are the worlds' 20 most popular 1/72 plastic scale aircraft together with the mainstream brands with the best interpretations. Interesting that WW2 subjects completely dominate the list. Manufacturer mentions below: I see a future for Hasegawa, Airfix and Tamiya in your…
This is next level diorama. A bit humbling actually🥴
I don't build ships. I know nothing about them. But I've seen enough ship dioramas on X to confidently declare this sea and wake effect is ridiculously next level...
I use a cheap pair of +4 reading glasses, sometimes paired with a 2x magnifying glass to complete my 1/72 scale kits. I would need a TELESCOPE for this 1/144 (superb) example below🤣
This is a classic🤣
Guess what my daughter has waiting for me in Canada. I can't wait to get stuck into this subject since falling in love with Japanese subjects since the completion of my Tamiya "Zeke" Zero. If the build quality on my @ArmaHobby Hurricane MKII was anything to go by this build…
