My main area of interest appears to be green models from the Allied WWII European Theatre - 1944-45.
I go astray a few times, but usually go back there.
I am not a master modeler and I am not showing off, just using this as a venue to express myself and show people who are interested in this kind of stuff what I have done.

Upcoming Projects 2015

I have a few just about ready for paint, however I do not paint my standard model master grey enamel in the house, waiting for positive temps to go out in the shed. Otherwise Cathy would kill me for stinking up the house. Paint booth did work for crap. Not enough CFM.

Coming up - 3 aircraft






Tamileri (Tamiya rebox of Italieri Hurricane Mk 1- Thanks Chris for putting that one on your swap list). I saw this and realized I had never done a Hurricane before. Coupled with the IPMS Canada 50th Anniversary decal sheet for Sqd Ldr Johhny Kent (Canadian) Hurricane from Sept 2, 1940 when he was a flight leader with 303 Polish Sqn, it was a lock.






Hasegawa Hawker Typhoon Mk 1b Car Door. I started this one a few years ago but ran into trouble with the seams for the cockpit insert. So with new found aircraft skills, I repaired and completed it.

Revel ME-262. This is not a great kit, many seam problems and gaps. However it was a perfect quick build to prepare me for the Tamiya ME-262 that i also have in the stash. Learned more seam skills and will be a great paint test bed. This one had raised panel lines which i engraved to be recessed. I used my plexi glass cutter (Thanks John K) with the metal tape lengths for a guide (thaks  Steve F). Didnt turn out too bad, we will see what it looks like painted.
