A-7E Corsair with small base

This is Revell repack of ancient Hasegawa kit, with some extras thrown in for a good measure. I've used Aires wheelbays, cockpit and electronic bays, bomb ordnance came from Brassin, Decals are from Aeromaster.  And since the fit was really poor, I have to mention Tamiya poliester putty. I've decided to make small deck base for it, which was made from scratch using Evergreen styrene sheets and profiles. Life rafts are home made 3D printed. Tie downs are from Infiny models, wheel chocks are from Wheeliant. Figures came from Aerobonus and Reedoak. Painted with Mr.Paints, weathered with great Ammo washes.

A study in NMF - P-38 Lightning

I don’t know why, but I like to build a model with interesting markings flown by unknown pilot. Beautiful aircraft deserves a beautiful lady, so Vivacios Virgin II, flown by Ian B. Mackenzie  in Belgium in  1944 was my choice. Decals came from Kagero topcolors book. I can't remember exactly how many different shades of Alclad paints were used on this one, but I am more than satisfied with the end result. Although Hasegawa's lightning is pretty old kit, it was pleasurable build.
