Out now, the cockpit detail set to add to the Mark1 Models kits (and eventually, to the RetroWings Tempest II conversion kit!).

Thanks. I used various AK's Extreme Metal paints and those worked pretty well. Their resistance to masking tape surprised me.

Here is the 1/144 Anigrand kit, modified to represent the later design, with a more conventional exhaust and re-worked nose. Not the easiest resin kit to put together, lots of milliput required to fill in trenches (engraved panels) and poorly-fitting parts. Also detailled cockpit, missile bay and ...

On the workbench right now, cockpit detail set for the Mark1 H-75 / P-36 kits and the fuselage of the forthcoming XP-42 'Long Nose' conversion kit.

Those two sets should be out during September along with the Tempest II conversion kit.

Just out, still warm from the caster's basement.. An 8-part resin detail set designed for the ClearProp OV-1 Mohawk kits. Includes early and late-style ejection seats (MB J5B and J5D). Note that there is only one overhead ejection handle provided, to be used as a template.

A set of weathered props ...

Nice one! Certainly original. I've only built the Falcon 10 kit from MikroMir, and I long to build another one..

Maybe a first in any scale? I've just released the E-2D conversion kit. It is meant, like all other Hawkeye RetroWings sets released so far, for the Revell E-2C kit(s).

The conversion is available either as a 'full' conversion kit, that also includes the 8-bladed props and the CEC Data Link Antenna ...

Here's my last completed 1/144 aircraft. Miniwing kit, started by a friend who is more used to much larger scales and gave up. The build was almost completed, I merely had to paint it (and add a new thinner prop). This was built as part of a club-wide GB to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the UN ...
