Tamiya has been known as one of the finest producers of scale models, so let’s see what everyone has built!!!
1/48 Buffalo. Built it many years ago. 
I got a couple, I’m more of a Monogram/Revell guy.
Very old - back in the 1990’s
these are within the last two years or so.
Nothing better than Tamiya!
Here’s one of mine:
1/48 Tamiya F-16C Arkansas ANG OOB:
Here’s Greg Boyington’s F4U-1 #883 at 1:48 I built a few months back… An absolute joy to build for the most part… Raymond
Gawd, this one’s prob about 14ish years old…old Badger with air can days [:(] I did tons of Tamiya armour, but, alas, all gone…
Nice builds! I need to get that F-16 out of the closet…love the Arkansas birds!
These two were built last year. Both are Tamiya 1/48
I’ve only built 3 Tamiya kits, and they all happen to be the 1/48 Mustang. Enjoy!
This was my first attempt at the kit and my first attempt at NMF. Built in fictional markings with a True Details seat.
Here’s my second attempt at the kit. Used some old Superscale decals, some 500 pounders from my spares box, and a True Details seat.
And the last of my Mustangs…for now. Another True Details seat, an Ultracast tail, and some Aeromaster decals.
Cheers,

Beautiful work folks! Here’s a few of my recent Tamiya offerings…
…and the paint is still drying on this turkey right here.

Leftie: What plane and what scale is this? I’ve been looking for a few like this in 1:48, but have been coming up short. This looks amazing. =]
And a nice job all around. So far it’s a nice spread of aircraft. =]
Wow, some really nice stuff showing up for sure! I love the Russian bird (I’ve blanked on the designation) that cnq built!
Joe, what did you think about the P-51 B/C build? I’m wanting to do the “Gruesome Twosome” at 1:48 for my wife, so I don’t mind spending the money if it’s worth it… Raymond
Wow, there are some very nice builds here.
Despite having about 5 in the stash, I’ve just realised I’ve only built two. I do have a number of armour builds too.
This one’s about 5 years old. I feel i’ve improved since then.
I completed this one only a month or so ago.
Ray: I’ve got the link bookmarked from when I was referencing it for Mustang info. He’s also got a story about Bill Overstreet at the beginning you’ll like. I have it here for you to jump to. This way you can dig through it at your leisure. =] Joe’s pretty thorough about what he likes and dislikes about a build.
Joe: That’s a helluva lot of Tamiya kits! I hadn’t realized they have all be Tamiya until now I think. lol
It was great. I can’t recall any fit issues…typical 90’s Tamiya. I did use a Verlinden cockpit. Here’s my WIP for that particular build if you would care to check it out.

Thanks Britt and Joe! I’ll take a look at the links. I’ve been trying to decide what I want to do next, and that my have answered my question… Raymond

WOW! Some great builds here! But I think Josiah has a pretty cool set up with the Corsair and Zero! Very cool!
