Okay Marc I’ll post mine here. Saves cluttering up the board with everyone’s individual review.

You have some great builds [bow] and looks like you’ve had a very productive year.

Here is my humble collection from 2006 (in order of completion). All 1/72 except for the destroyers which are 1/700. I have been busy with house reno’s which has cut into my building time but I still managed to put a few together including some rather large birds. Here goes…

1/72 RG Me 262A

1/72 Airfix Sunderland

1/700 Tamiya British Destroyers Onslow and Offa

1/72 Revell Ar 234C with V1

1/72 DML JgpzIV L70

1/72 RG Ju 290 A5

1/72 Airfix Meteor MkIII

This is the first time I have done this and it is kind nice to see the product of a years work all in one place.

Tony… nice Mustnag and Wrigley Field is very cool. You MADE your own guitar? [tup]

11

Alrighty, let’s see what I can dig up from what I did this year-

Airfix 1/72 Fw 190D-9

Academy 1/72 P-47

Airfix 1/72 Hs 129

Heller 1/72 Me 163 Komet

This may not seem like a whole lot, but there’s a whole slew of projects that I started but didn’t get a chance to finish. This includes my Bv 222, continued work on my 1/72 Spruce Goose, a scratchbuilt trolley for my Bv 222, my second attempt at a working contra-prop gearbox, and another small project that I won’t reveal until it’s finished. [;)]

But then again, I’m not trying to make any excuses, either! [:D]

Merry Chritmas, everybody, and a Happy New Year!

12

Tony & hkshooter, nice collections [tup][tup]

Mike, nice to see that you do some small stuff too. [tup] I’m looking forward to seeing that Bv222! (and the goose but I imagine that will be awhile [:)])

13

Marc, your builds are amazing! I love the 109 E3, its flawless. Those Mustangs are are also very well done. All a real pleasure to look at.

14

Dave, you have a great group of builds there! I am so impressed with you Sunderland, that is a real head turner! Thanks for sharing[:)]

15

Even Lincoln looks shocked at how small that 1/144 Fw190 is. Some great looking builds from everyone [wow]

16

Very nice jobs, congrat´s to all.

Cheers

Great work, everyone! It apparently was a good and productive year!

wing_nut a build is a build lol yes I took a class on guitar building and this is the finished product. It takes longer to build a kit with a lot of extra details than a guitar. The guitar took about 36 hours to complete, I have a bf-109 that I know I have at least 80 hours into and that’s oob. The kit is 22 years old and it needs a lot of tlc. Merry Christmas to all.

Tony… and the best part… no panel lines to worry about[;)]

Lucien… great looking line up.

Oh contrare? mi amigo, That white edging is to hide the panel lines. I used Squadron white putty to fill the gaps lol.
