This is a build I've started some time ago, one of my modeler's dreams that comes true in a now uncommon scale in my workshop: 1:72. This is mainly becouse the subject is hardly available in a larger scale, and if it is, the price is just unacceptable. At least four hundred zlotys (with the … Continue reading Under construction: Lockheed L-14H2 Super Electra | MPM 1:72

A long run: PZL. 43 | Mirage Hobby 1:48
Hi All It's been a while since my last post here, reasons as usual - almost no time for the hobby, list of the started models is growing, so the stash of the unopened boxes. Anyway, I'm struggling to have some things finished, like this particular kit. Indeed, it is not a lucky guy - … Continue reading A long run: PZL. 43 | Mirage Hobby 1:48
In the workshop: Ki-43-II Hayabusa | Hasegawa 1:32, part 2
Hi, All It's been a while since my last update and indeed, there's some progress in my builds. First of all worth to mention, that the Hayabusa hasn't gotten as much attention lately, as I think she deserves. Lot of other launched builds, including two rather ambitious resin kits, PZL P.7 from Arma Hobby and … Continue reading In the workshop: Ki-43-II Hayabusa | Hasegawa 1:32, part 2
In the workshop: Supermarine Attacker FB.2 | Trumpeter 1:48 – part three
Hi, All Last few weeks have brought some progress with the jet-Spitfire. The Attacker received some paint, as well as the decals, which turned out to be a nightmare as regards to their application. Any attempts to correct their placement right after their application are almost impossible. The film the decals are printed on is … Continue reading In the workshop: Supermarine Attacker FB.2 | Trumpeter 1:48 – part three
In the workshop: Gee Bee R1 | Williams Bros. 1:32
Hi All The next victim will be the Gee Bee R1 from Williams Bros. An oldie, but definitely worth attention and effort. Have bought this kit recently and somehow could not resist to start it - despite there are so many other attractive objects in my stash. OK, so what is inside? One clear sprue … Continue reading In the workshop: Gee Bee R1 | Williams Bros. 1:32
In the workshop: Supermarine Attacker FB.2 | Trumpeter 1:48 – part two
Hi, All Attacker quickly takes its ugly shapes. To get more fine and smooth joints I ended with filling and sanding the top and the bottom of the fuselage... Initially I was hoping, that the fit is perfect OOB, but either it is me, either it is Trumpy's fault, I couldn't make it fit perfectly. … Continue reading In the workshop: Supermarine Attacker FB.2 | Trumpeter 1:48 – part two
In the workshop: Supermarine Attacker FB.2 | Trumpeter 1:48 – part one
Hi All, Decided to start another project (hopefully a quick build), something a little bit different, than usual - a jet airplane. These early jets have always fascinated me: sometimes with strange shapes, strange technical solutions, many dead ends in the aviation technique development. One of such planes is Supermarine Attacker. Who would say that … Continue reading In the workshop: Supermarine Attacker FB.2 | Trumpeter 1:48 – part one
In the workshop: Ki-43-II Hayabusa | Hasegawa 1:32, part 1
Hi, All This kit was moved to the waiting room in September last year. Well... it took some time to begin - just some other "side" projects have taken most of my attention during past few weeks and months... hope you understand and forgive me Few photos of what's in the box and some aftermarket bits … Continue reading In the workshop: Ki-43-II Hayabusa | Hasegawa 1:32, part 1
In the workshop: PZL. 43 | Mirage Hobby 1:48. Part 2 – a tough kit
Hi All, This kit is a pig indeed. Parts do not fit, the plastic is brittle and quite problematic with regard to the way it works with a glue (especially Tamiya's Extra Thin) - dries for hours. In addition to that it seems, that the photo-etched fret in my kit is missing, as some instructions … Continue reading In the workshop: PZL. 43 | Mirage Hobby 1:48. Part 2 – a tough kit
In the workshop: Kawasaki Ki-100-I Koh Type 5 Fighter | Hasegawa 1:48 Part 4 – finishing
Hi All, Haven't published anything lately - well, Christmas, New Year - this should have been a peaceful time, but this time it wasn't. Many has happened in my professional and family life, leaving not much time for modelling and photography. But, that's the way things go sometimes, now at last it is much easier, … Continue reading In the workshop: Kawasaki Ki-100-I Koh Type 5 Fighter | Hasegawa 1:48 Part 4 – finishing
