Italeri SR-71 Blackbird 1/72
SR-71 Blackbird Lockheed Martin SR-71 Blackbird Italeri – No.145 – 1/72 One of the most exciting air planes ever built is the Lockheed Martin SR-71 Blackbird and very few come even close to the achievements that were made with this masterpiece of engineering – not just whilst flying it but designing and building it! This was done before we had computers and those responsible for the design truly knew what they were...

MiniArt European Street 1/35
European Street Mini Art – Nr. 36011 – 1/35 MiniArt has some beautiful diorama buildings that are notoriously famous for being hard to assemble, or are they?

If the Maus had been finished and put into production it...

King Tiger Panzerkampfwagen Tiger Ausf. B (Sd.Kfz.182) Takom – Nr. 2047 – 1/35 The mighty King Tiger, with full interior, from Takom This was a kit I was really excited to build, almost too excited, and I sat for weeks trying to plan how to execute it. I decided early on to upgrade the tracks to Friulmodel ATL-16 and although expensive, I think it was worth it. I do like tracks to be “working”. I’m not a...
