The Sheep's Nest. One of my first
models
after
my
return
to
the
hobby.
It's
a
small
diorama
in
1/144
scale

the Revell F4U-1D Corsair as it should
look in Vella Lavella in 1942. Published by the late Air and Sea Models magazine in 1999. |

as shown to the public at Martlesham
Heath in July/1936. Published by Fine

War Prize is a very
battered Tamiya Aichi M6A1-K Nanzan in 1/72, as it was found by the

This

my
commemorative
display

the
75th
anniversary

the
first
transatlantic
flight.
It
presents
a
much improved Testors Spirit of St.
Louis in 1/72 scale and the William Bros. Wright Whirlwind J-5 engine
in 1/8 scale. |
|
Pyccкaя крыса (Russian Rat). The
little
Hasegawa
Polikarpov
I-16
in
1/72

a
nice
kit
at
a
first
glance.
In
the
end I added a new cockpit and many details to bring this model
to a better standard. |

Dad & Son. The
cold-war missile AGM-86B
