[Closed] Remember this thread about plastic model kits?

That's very nice put's my efforts (when I was a teenager) to shame!

looks lovely that!

what scale? is the wing camo decal or paint?

Nice, need a new thread and perhaps you may have started it. Have pics i could post of some of mine if people are interested.

Lovely - especially the rigging and the prop.

finished it after nearly three years now!

I am a slow worker

Me likey. You gonna hang it from your bedroom ceiling?

nickc; 1/32 wingnutwings kit, the lozenge camo on the wings are decals supplied with the kit and took ages to fit.

nairnster; post yours, I'm interested.

Squidlord; thanks, I think it's one of the best I've done.

thepurist; they normally just sit around until they get broken, the fun for me is making them. I gave my Me262 to my 3 year old grandson to play with, lasted about 10 minutes before the undercarriage and back wings were off 😀

I work in 1/72, mainly due to cost and space considerations

Nice work nairnster. I particularly like the weathering on the F4 and the P51's. The 109 is very good as well. I think it's harder to make 1/72 kits look good than the larger scales.

I like 1/48 scale myself and my next kit is a B26 Marauder. I have a fascination for these aircraft as I often cycle past their old bases at Chipping Ongar/Willingale, Matching, and Great Dunmow.

Saw a link to this guy's work on a car forum, amazing ... no plastic kits though 😉

Some excellent work there. 🙂

These are the last two I did. My wife is away for a week next month and I fancy doing a Fiesta WRC kit.

They are 1/148 scale. The excavator is about an inch long.

Nice work everyone. The prop and rigging on the Pfalz are great.

These are my most recent finished:

Although reading the text he seems to take diecast models and paint and detail them rather than building from kits.

Actually, his Flickr feed is even better: [url= https://www.flickr.com/photos/24796741@N05/ ]https://www.flickr.com/photos/24796741@N05/[/url]

Really top rate modelling.

goon; I like that Skyhawk a lot and it looks familiar, has it been in any magazines?

Nice work, guys, the Phalz and the A-4Q are outstanding.

So, after the Pfalz I thought I would do a nice and easy 'out of the box' build and chose a Revell/Monogram 1/48 B26 Marauder. I looked at it and thought 'those raised panel lines look a bit rough, I'll rescribe them'...

Then I thought I'd by an etched brass detail set, that turned into an Eduard Big Ed set....

Might as well add some decent guns as well...

This may be a long job as well! 😀
