I am building my collection of 1:48 scale WWII planes. Of course the P-40 was the first.

MY FAVE!

Are you going to build them? Cool stuff. I have a balsa and tissue obsession. I have a 40" wingspan Guillows P38 built up and getting torn up by items being thrown into the closet with it. I need to take a few pics of it before I do something pyrotechnically awesome to it. I have a half built P40 with a 18" wingspan under the workbench downstairs.

Yes I plan on building them all. I have been building models since I was about 10ys old. Would love to see some pics.

the 109 looks wierd becouse i had an old styrofoam rc plane , took out the motor, battey and reciever and then tore apart the model and installed it. now with the controller i can hang it from the cieling and fly it around in circles.

Those look pretty good. Hand painted with a brush? All in all well done sir. I airbrush mine will post pics of mine when they are done. Still working on a panther tank that has 730+ pieces. Hell of a challenge!

Here is the scratchbuilt 8' wingspan Douglas World Cruiser I built for the local airport a few years back. .

The article on its construction can be found at http://www.internetmodeler.com/2003/sep ... on/DWC.htm

This is the first resin ship I built - the Italian Destroyer Freccia

Airfix 54mm Polish Lancer. I sold this to a collector in Korea of all places after it appeared online

White Ensign Models 1/700 Flower Class corvette. . it is on a wooden light switch plate.

Internetmodeler.com is a website my partner and I started back in 1998. I have many build articles on figures and ships as well as aircraft profiles scattered amongst its pages. My latest fun are a pair of 1/16 Radio Control Tanks .. I have a Panther and a Panzer III, both of which I have repainted and heavily weathered. The most recent aircraft I have done are 16 or 17 1/72 Japanese aircraft that I did two years ago. Ebay is a wonderful resource for acquiring kits.
