Skunk Models Workshop 1/48 scale HH-60J Jayhawk
It was not an easy build, but I did enjoy working on this model kit.

Airfix 1/72 scale Vickers Valiant BK.Mk.1
Not only is this finished model kit impressively large, but the engineering, options, and fit are top-notch and make for an enjoyable building experience.

Cyber-hobby 1/72 scale F6F-5N Hellcat
For now, this is the go-to model kit for a 1/72 scale Hellcat, especially if you want the wings folded.

Tamiya 1/32 scale P-51D Mustang
In keeping with the standard set by previous 1/32 scale model kits, Tamiya’s Mustang includes a detailed Packard Merlin engine with magnets to align scale thin cowl covers.

Eduard 1/72 scale Grumman F6F-3 Hellcat
Eduard’s 1/72 scale kit of the Grumman F6F-3 Hellcat is a fine representation of the classic World War II fighter. Not as complicated as Cyber-hobby’s kit, Eduard’s Hellcat has great detail where it can be seen.

Kinetic 1/48 scale S-2E/S-2G Tracker
I would recommend this model kit to intermediate modelers who think they can handle the complex masking required for painting.

Aoshima 1/24 scale Lamborghini Countach LP400
If you’ve built a few model kits, you should have no problems at all turning out a showroom Lamborghini.
-
Trumpeter 1/32 scale A-4E Skyhawk
This model kit includes detail in a lot of places you won’t see without picking it up, including landing-gear bays, speed-brake wells, and avionics compartments.

HobbyBoss U.S. M3A1 “White Scout Car”
It was great to build an up-to-date model kit of this interesting U.S. Army vehicle.
