I have several but the top of the list would have to be my Snowberry and Tam Swardfish.
Dwight, the FAUN is an EXCELLENT kit. I strongly suggest picking it up.
On that note, there are a couple that I am putting off. THey are all large, complex kits that will take quite a bit of time to build and paint;
All Trumpeter, all 1/35
Faun panzertransporter
SA-2 missle on transporter (although I’m just itching to start this one)
Morser Karl, it’s just so damn big…
Ummm…Everything in my collection. Yes, I have issues.
I’ve got that Revell from Germany B-36. It’s giant, and whenever I look in the box, i know I’m never going to finish it.
The Tamiya M4 Sherman (Early) I recently purchased. Though that’s just because I have to wait until I get this cast off my arm.
the 1/144 f14 that has been sitting in my “on going” builds for almost a year now hehehehe [:D]
Well I have three. My 1/32 Academy Hornet and 1/32 Trumpeter Flanker. I am waiting until my garage is finished and I have a large place to work. I am also putting off work on my 1/72 Hasegawa YF-19. It was expensive and it is my favorite valk so I wanna do it justice.
Tamiya 1/16 Tiger I full R/C kit. I move so often that if I built it before I retired, it would probably be destroyed or damaged in the move. It is a retirement project waiting to happen. Same deal with a Tamiya motorized (non-R/C) King Tiger.
my trumpeter flanker. I havent even touched that in about a month, I know I should start soon, but I just can’t stnad those hinges and the seams are always popping.
AMT/Ertl Star Destroyer. Not an overly difficult build but all those fiber optics and drilling of holes. It’s been sitting for a few years now [:(]
My 1/48 B-1B Lancer. It’s a nice kit, I think I have got the skill to make it but…
- where do I put it? it’s huge!!!
- to make matters worse, I have got it in my head that I would like make a B-1A prototype (the one in the desert camo, with the ECM spine). I don’t have enough data to start. Especially the wing root and jet intakes are a bit of a black spot!
Mine are the Trumpeteer 1/32 scale A-10 N/AW, 1/35 scale Hind-E, and Dragon 1/35 scale Leopold. These kits are so huge with so many parts…sheeeesh.
AFV Clubs LEfH18 105cm howitzer. Looks way out of my league.
Monogram B-29 since it is the biggest model I have right now. And it is going to take alot of sanding to get it right.
All of the new ones, at least until I get the ones I’ve started done first…
That’s my biggest issue, just trying to complete kits before I start new ones. I’ve made myself stop buying kits* until some of these are completed.
*That doesn’t mean I’ve stopped buying AM PE and resin for my kits, or decals, tools, paint, dio supplies…I could go on and on…
Ohh, I have 1/12 Honda F1 RA 273 sitting on my shelf
I am still trying to improve my sklills to the extend which will give some confidence to finish that to perfect.
Ok, I confess…a 1/12 scale Williams FW-14B. I’m a little intimidated by spraying gloss yellow, white, and blue on the same model…
The chassis is done, as is the engine and cockpit tub…suspension, etc.
Jeff
Actually, I have one more to add…
The simply awful Monogram 1/9th scale Jaguar XK-E Coupe…I have to get a watchmakers lathe before I can start - there’s just too much to do - basically most of the car will have to be scratchbuilt or rebuilt - along with new spoked wheels with stainless steel spokes…THAT’S going to be interesting.
But it’ll be spectacular…
My Italleri 1/72 scale C-47. Having a difficult masking the sucker and there’s a lot of little windows. Plus I want to do different ID #s on the side and am having a hard time finding the right ones in the scale that I want.
well, after I finish the one on my workbench now, regretfully ALL of them will have to be put off until after I move, get unpacked and set up again!
