    WWII restoration

    So after a visit with my parents and discovered my old Airfix 1:48 Hawker Hurricane Mk1. I genuinley can't recall when I built it, but a safe guess is at least 20 to 25 years ago. Here she is in her current state. When you consider it she hasn't aged too badly...

    It was the dawn of the third age of mankind. Ten years after the Earth Minbari war....

    The Babylon project was dream giving form. It's goal to prevent another war by creating a place where humans and aliens could work out their differences peacefully. It's a port of call. Home away from home for diplomas, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanders. Humans and aliens wrap in two million...

    Raging Bulls!

    So with my son (and myself) becoming Max Verstappen supporters during the past year, I've decided to park the Enterprise project for a bit and build us Max's and Checco's RB16B. So off we go with the floor :)

    To be somewhat Enterprising....

    I've been toying with the idea of building a copy of each version of the USS Enterprise, and, due to a variety of reasons I never got around to it. Since I have already built the E I'm taking this as a given :) The idea is to build in chronological order, so I'm starting with the NX-01. All...

    If it was Canadian would it be an Eh-Wing?

    I've put my revisit to HMS Victory on hold (still need to get some bits and pieces) and embarked upon building my favourite Star Wars fighter. Not the X-Wing, although it's right up there, it's the fighter that took down the Executor in Return of the Jedi.... Yes, the RZ-1A A-Wing Interceptor...

    England Expects...

    Tragically one of my older, favourite plastic models was destroyed when my dad fell on it. Long story, don't ask. Well ,that the nail in the coffin, thanks to my ex this model was damaged by standing unprotected in the South African sun and the masts in particular lost their shape. I'm due a...

    G'day, I seem to have shrunk!

    I seem to be on this trend of rebuilding models that I built ages ago, and now it's Striker Eureka from the original Pacific Rim. To save space, ink and paper I've scaled down the model by 50%. Starting with the face. Did I mention that the greebling potential on this model is massive and I...

    To Voyage to the Delta Quadrant (for the third time....) :)

    After completing the Elsa's and Thomas' I built for my own, and girlfriends kids it's time to get back to my roots. as in Sci-fi :) The lighting dies in my Voyager I built a few years ago, and looking at it now with older (and wiser?) eyes I decided it's time for another go at this lovely ship...

    They're two, they're four, they're six, they're eight...

    Now the ear-worm is in place I shall continue :) I decided to build a Thomas the Tank Engine for my son and my girlfriend's little boy as well. Also in this deal are an Elsa (frozen) for the girls, but more on that later... It's quite an easy little kit, but I'm adding a challenge in trying to...

    To Boldly go.... Wait! I've been here before....

    Before we can split anymore infinities, and after the misfire that was my Mutara Nebula re-creation it's to reveal my next build. I'm revisiting the USS Enterprise A 1:400 that I rebuilt a while ago. Sadly that one took quite a bit of damage (found out later the ex put it in a position where...

    Your first time....

    No, not that. What was everyone's very first paper model, and, is it still available? :) Mine was the FIFA World Cup trophy from paper-replika, first built for a work function in 2010. Hooked since then :)

    There she is....there she is...not so wounded as we were lead to believe.

    I seem to have shook off the slump I was experiencing, for the first time (in forever) (sorry, just watched Frozen 2 with my daughter... :hammerhead:) I have left a model incomplete. The Spitfire is on hold while I embark on a project I've been wanting to do for quite a while. I'm starting on...

    Lost my mo-jo....

    All of a sudden I have no desire to carry on with the spitfire, or start something else. I'm sure it's temporary, I think I'm just tired. That said my daughter thinks it's my new girlfriend taking time away from the models....;)

    Tally Ho Chaps!

    I'm going back in time, to when brave souls took to the skies, to a time when you had to see your enemy, to time of valour, of horror and a time I pray we never see the like of again. Wow. that went dark quickly.... Before tackling my next big thing (literally, you'll see in due time) I...
