  1. That’s very cool and unique! How long is it in 1/400 scale?
  2. Just finished up the 1/48 scale Spitfire from Revell. Another fun aircraft build for my fleet that just keeps growing. Tried out the airbrush again with Apple Barrel acrylic English Ivy over Tamiya rattle can AS-22 RAF Dark Earth. Lower color is Apple Barrel acrylic Summer Sky airbrushed. Mr Hobby Matte Clear for the overall finish. link to a little history https://www.historics.co.uk/buying/auctions/2012-02-18/car/1941-spitfire-2a/
  3. This a Cubicfun 3D puzzle that my neighbors gave me for feeding there cat while they were cruising on this vessel on the Snake River. Press fit made of paper and foamboard. Nice break from glue and paints.
  4. Finished this low riding minivan that my son had gotten me last Christmas. I’ve always wanted a minivan but this will be as close as I’ll get. Paint is Tamiya TS-54 which I sprayed without any primer, body quality was flawless. Thanks for looking and enjoy.
  5. Thank you all guys! I have the Revell Supermarine Spitfire on the bench now.
  6. Thanks guys, I’m really enjoying these 1/48 scale builds I’ve been doing.
  7. Looks really nice Rich! I’ll agree this kit was a joy to build.
  8. This is Revell’s 1/48 scale Flying Tiger piloted by John W. Ferrell if the American Volunteer Group. It’s my sixth 1/48 build of WW2 aircraft. I airbrushed the green Apple Barrel acrylic craft paint over Tamiya Dark Earth. Pretty much a cheap kit but builds up ok. Thanks for checking it out.
  9. Looks like it may have opened in August? 11610 W. 95th, conveniently located next to a Hobby Lobby. as far as kits on hand I saw a coke trailer, Myers Manx, a corvette Cr7? and a mid 90’s Mustang along with various jet aircraft.
  10. My haul from Ollie’s, Hobby Lobby and a local Hobby Haven in Overland Park,Ks.
  11. Was quite surprised to see this Charger was priced at only 29.99, unlike other new kits there. A bargain at 40% off nowadays.
  12. My first trip to Ollie’s in Overland Park, Ks., which I think might be the only one in the area. Very limited selection but I came home with a Monogram Dodge Vioer to add to my collection.
  13. Very nice looking floatplane. What scale is that?
  14. Thank you guys for all your extremely kind comments!
  15. Better yet, finally a Maverick!
  16. Just finished up this nice building kit of the 66 Fairlane. Paint is Tamiya Racing White. Thanks for looking!
  17. I was speaking of the actual size of the plane compared to the other fighters of the day. The build itself was quite easy, but you are correct, with the 8 .50 caliber guns it was definitely the beast!
  18. Very cool, I’ll have to check these out next time. Unfortunately since I retired and moved my closest store is an hour away instead of 5 minutes.
  19. I bought this kit at a garage sale for five bucks this summer. Decal were unusable so I purchased these Warbirds Decals from Hobbylinc. Actually they didn’t cost a penny using built up rewards. Paint is all Tamiya rattle can. Plane is ready for it’s maiden flight with Paul A. Conger at the sticks. Thanks for looking and welcome your feedback. this plane was a beast
  20. Fantastic work on a beautiful plane.
  21. Looks great, sure puts mine to shame.
