Thanks for the info, I really liked those kits and will be sure to look for them! (so they can sit in my stash collecting dust [:)] )

Kevin, that pic of ‘nothing’ looks great! Nice detail and I love the weathering! Is that the Eduard photo etch on that? [;)][:o)]

Actually Kevin, I am pleased that you are working on some models. The inportant thing is that we have fun and enjoy our hobby. I am looking forward to seeing the ones you mentioned when they are finished. As good as you do, I know they will be incredible!

Thats a pic of my stealth bomber. You have a good eye picking out that Eduard detail set but you missed the Aries cockpit and the scratchbuilt, fully functional radar system. You actually made me blush with that last bit. Thanks!!

I feel so inferior. All I finished was a 1/48 P38 and a 1/72 F84. Hopefully I can knock out one more ship before Dec 31st.

I’m curious what a couple of thos models are: the 3rd and 5th ship, and the 13th plane. What kit and vehicle are they?

lol you feel inferior ihave not completed 1 this year lol

now i know who to ask for modeling experience and reference! Good Job! Love the Hummer

[Duke_Maddog]

Jeff, I don’t feel for you. I would love to have a job like yours! I also thoroughy enjoy seeing your work in the magazine as well as the Forums. I especially can’t wait to see the TF dio get built!

Oh Jeff, maybe you can show this Thread to Mark Thompson in light of his most recent Editors Page. I already wrote him an E-mail, but seeing it makes it more effective. Just an idea.

Thanks Luis! I’m glad you like my collection for this year. I have just completed another model, a 1/72 scale Israeli BRDM I, and have eight more on the verge of being done before the 31st of December.

We’ll see…

[Duke_Maddog]

Well, I have managed to complete another 8 more models, bringing my total up to 65 completed builds for this year so far. I’ll post pics of them later.
