Peter is one of the most diverse modelers in our club, building aircraft, armour, ships - you name it.  His real calling, though, is science fiction, Anime in particular.

Peter has built all three of Bandai's impressive Star Trek kits.  From top to bottom we have three incarnations of the starship Enterprise: NX-01, Jonathan Archer's ship, NCC-1701-A, James T. Kirk's mount (after he destroyed his first Enterprise), and NCC-1701-E, Jean-Luc Picard's current command.

This is Revell Germany's 1/72 Gotha Go-229 Flying Wing.  Peter mentioned that this kit is a bit of a challenge to build, especially if you make the mistake of following the instructions.  After having major issues matching the wings to the "fuselage" on his first kit, Peter tried again, mating the entire upper and lower surfaces together to simplify the process.

except for the landing gears doors which were made only for being left open,didn't fit at all in closed position,which would,ve been keeping the bottom array in nonuse upright position,overall all the best fitting  and best detail of any of the previous 3 companies that have released valkyrie kits.
the extra packs are despite photo is a space only variant
This is Peter's Hasegawa 1/72 scale VE-1 Elintseeker Valkyrie from the Macross movie.  Peter reports that this is the most extensive of the Hasegawa kits from a construction standpoint, and offers typical Hasegawa quality and detail.  The fit was great (the best of any of the three companies which have released Macross kits to date) except for the landing gear doors, which can only be posed in the open position as supplied in the kit.  Putting the gear down, however, did not allow the ventral electronics array to be deployed, so Peter modified the gear doors.  Despite the backdrop, this is a spaceflight-only variant.

This is a very nice rendition of one of Bandai's Gundam models.  Zaku III is a 1/144 scale kit, one of the High Grade kits.
