From pre-2003?

Thought I would share some of my final builds before my hiatus nearly ten years ago. I look back now at some of these and think “geesh, how in the heck did I miss that seem?” I see so many awesome build here now. Hopefully y’all will be willing to share some of the secrets from your mad skills![:)]

Awesome! Love the Italian F-104 and the phantoms! Too bad u had to quite building for awhile. Those are some nice cockpit details, especially the Stuka and hurricane.

Thanks Nathan! Loved that H’gawa 1/32 Stuka.

found two more…

Awesome looking builds. You have any more pics of the Stuka. Is it the D or G kit.

Don’t see anything wrong with any of those beautiful builds. Nice work.

Thanks!

Maybe this link will work for the Stuka.

Wow! Thanks for sharing!

Those are really sharp looking models. The F-4 and Intruder in flight displays rock!

Gotta agree with everyone here. The only thing I see “wrong” is that you took a 10 year hiatus! I love all the planes especially the Cutlass. Is that the 1/48 scale Hobbycraft kit?

My fav is the PB-Y 5A. I’m building one now…yours is fabulous.

Yeah, they all look fantastic to me!

Thanks for those Stuka pics, a really nice build there.

Lol! What are you? Fishing for compliments bud? These things are awesome! Here I’ll show you some bad builds…

Granted they’re not the WORST builds ever, they still come from a time before I knew of weathering, making decals look painted on, putty or patience lol.

Thanks for all the kind words guys!!

The Cutlass was the 1/72nd Fujimi kit. It was a blast.

I like the F/A-18! You don’t even wanna know how many times I tried building that in high school haha…And in AIT as a 19 year old! Ha. Good times.

Nice bunch’a models!

Wow! That was some serious work there before your hiatus… what’s next for you?

Thanks

Just broke out an A-7E H’gawa and an S-3 with the Paragon set. Working from my stash still.

What seam?..those look perfect…Thanks for sharing.
