Westland/Aerospatiale Puma: Built from the Reveal 1/32 scale kit. It was modified to represent the type used in the Gulf War. Additions include seat belts added to all pasenger and pilot/co-pilots seats, machine gun and scatch built ammunition boxes. Paint used this time was Humbrol enamel.

F14 "Tomcat": Another 1/32 scale Reveal kit. The thing that sticks most in my mind about this model was the lousy fit of some of the main fuselage parts, which required a large amount of filler and a even larger amount of time sanding down and rescribing panel lines. Still it was cheap and still fun to do.

McDonnel F4-D Phantom: This is the 1/32 scale kit from Tamiya which my wife bought for me one christmas. It has taken nearly a year of on and off modelling to compleate. Not a lot can be said about the fit of parts and instructions except they are very very good. The only thing I found that let the model down was the decals, maybe it was my fault for leaving them in the box whilst the build was ongoing, but I found them to be very brittle and almost unusable, still I found enough in my spare's box. The only problem I now have is where to but the thing, it is huge. Still this is one model I thoroughly enjoyed doing, highly recommended if you can afford the thing.
