Nichimo 1:200 scale U-Boat - my effort for Macro Mondays on the theme of vowels

Here is my just finished Tamiya 1/48 scale Spitfire Mk 1.

Here is my 1/48 scale Monogram model UH-1B Iroquois photoshopped over sand dunes. I flew in the real one over Stockton Beach sand hills a great many times. The kit is really a UH-1C, but I modified to represent a RAAF B model with rescue hoist. Decals came from the scrap box.

Here my 1/48 Monogram modified UH-1B Huey overflies my model 1/48 Italeri Mirage IIIO.

The Canandaigua Southern was the model railroad of the late John Armstrong and while there was a white boxcar made by USAT with a CS logo on it I found it to be not quite fitting with what I used to see in the pages of Model Railroader when I used to read articles about John's great O Scale railroad. So, I designed my own decals and with the help of some friends did up my own boxcar to honor Mr. Armstrong.

My last completed model of 2022, a Tamiya 1/48 scale Spitfire Mk 1 has appeared out of the construction room.

Here we have my first attempt at staging a 1/72 scale WW2 sunset view on a remote Pacific Island strip to our north. My HobbyBoss 1/72 scale P-40's and a pre made 1/72 Jeep.

Here is my recent build, an ICM 1/48 scale clipped wing Mk IX wearing 453 Squadron, RAAF markings.

This is the smallest model of a Heritage Unit I have ever seen, this Z Scale SD70ACE from AZL joins my roster of the same loco in many different scales.

This is a 4-6-2 locomotive in G Scale 1:29.

PC GP leads this local freight with boxcars over a bridge. I snagged the pic in my backyard.

Finally got some IDF decals on my Academy 1/48 scale, IDF Piper Super Cub. A rather difficult kit for myself, I took great pains with my poor skills to try and get those canopy lines right.

Finished....?

After months in the field without a chance for repair and resupply, Lt. Jin's SAFS had seen better days. A sniper ambush had nearly killed him, melting through most of the armor on the main cockpit hatch and frying the main cockpit displays. He'd had no choice but the strip the hatch and replace it with a woven hat to keep the worst of the elements off of him... With the start of the rainy season, he'd also had to built large wooden sandals to keep from getting bogged down, and add canvas shrouds to keep the worst of the muck out of the knee joints.

The one bit of luck he'd had was finding a pre-war titanium laminate ōdachi in an abandoned homestead while scavenging for supplies. Before the war, it would have been a tasteless display of wealth and power, as it was far too large for anyone to actually wield... But with the enhanced strength of his SAFS, the blade was still sharp enough to pierce the armor of most AFS or sever limbs at unarmored joints.

Here is my just completed Airfix 1/48 scale Spitfire Mk 22. Fun building it but the sliding canopy just will not fit correctly.
