1/72 Handley Page Hampden
Here I imagine a Hampden bomber going through its last preparations before a night-time mission.
1/72 Diorama: “Tanks in the Streets”
Various models, including “Monty’s Caravan,” showing Montgomery and Eisenhower in conference, in a ruined streets diorama. See my recent Panther collection for more in this setup…
1/72 Aircraft Collection “In Flight”

Here is my attempt to capture the feel of a palm-studded, sun-drenched airbase in the South Pacific in the latter half of 1942. It is the first time I have […]

I’m definitely excited with how some of these turned out!
