    The aircraft photo you took you like most!

    My favorite one from an airshow we used to have at the small airport close to where I live, The old Junkers Ju-52 tri-motor in civilian camo. You could buy a ticket for a flight in the "Tante Ju" over Bamberg that lasted about 15 minutes. At the end of the show, you could buy a flight in it...

    As I stated in another post, I had to have some retail therapy of late. The first one is the reason I can post on the forum again and post pics of the other goodies, Laptops aren't as expensive as I thought they would be. I also bought a 5 year warranty to keep it going........The next ones...

    D-day 80th anniversary tribute build - 5th June -Sept 24.

    Should be fun Geoff and this is what I found. Now you all promise not to laugh at it, excluding Mr. Smiff, of course, And it doesn't have those awful rubber tires either...I had a U.S. M-16 quad .50 cal 1/2 track too, but I converted it into something else last month... Prost Allen

    Mr. Ketchup is "Back in da House"...hopefully...

    Evening All, As you might have noticed, I have been absent for a while. A lot of crap has been going, some good, but mostly bad. Laptop died and this time it was fatal. HD can be saved, as it is new, but the motherboard bit the dust. My son the techie can transfer the data to this new one and...

    1/35 Tamiya Kübelwagen with a Twist...

    Afternoon People, I have decided to finish the Kübel instead of starting a new kit. The Kübel should be familiar to every one, so I won't go into any intro for it. I will also be using some parts from the Tamiya Kübelwagen Maintenance kit, resin wheels from DEF Model, and a resin conversion kit...

    What's on the Bench 2024

    Well, if it doesn't restore the Mojo Pete, you could build the other 27 Daleks you have in the stash to help.... I'm still up in the air here. While searching for the resin tires, I found a bunch of AM stuff for another favorite of mine. Now I don't know which one to do. This one with a twist...

    What's on the Bench 2024

    With the Mojo flying high, replying to posts, and playing ketchup on here, I decided on what my next project will be. After spending over 2 hours, without luck, looking for resin wheels for another project, I decided on this one, As you can see, it's been started (in October 23), so not sure...

    Allen's WnW's WWI Halberstadt CI.II (revisited)

    Afternoon Good People, As the title states, I went crazy in the past weeks and finished this too. If you read the latter pages in my thread here, I had to modify/paint figs and finish carts, as well as a base. Painting figs is my weakest point in life. I can do scratchy all day long, but the...

    Allen's Hansa-Brandenburg W.12 "Time To Go My Friend", (build a bi-plane GB)

    Evening all, Again, a big thanks to Ian (Papa695) for starting and running this GB. It was a blast to participate and after many years of modeling, I have learned how to do it right. My biggest prob is I spend too much time researching/referencing a build and little time actually building the...
