Very nice OP!
I got back into building kits a couple of years ago (After a 30+ YR "vacation" lol) and have been working on the old Monogram "White Box" kits I built as a kid back in the 70's. No pics of my own yet but....here's some of a 1/48 scale B17G (I built at least ten of these as a kid) that some dude went totally ape-shit on       HK Models has also put out a 1/32nd scale '25 and '17! They're HUGE!  Here's some pic's of the '17. I don't know how tall/big that dude is(?) but it gives you "some" idea of the model's size.     |

I have a 1/32nd scale Mudhen from Tamiya...it's huge. It's got pretty good detail, but their large plane kits are a bit dated. There are some great update kits for it from Eduard. The Academy 1/32 F/A-18C is a great kit. Lot's of detail and excellent molding. |

I did this about a year ago. I hadn't done a model since I was in my early teens which was a decade and a half ago. I think for my next one, I'd like to do either a Group B rally car (quattro preferred) or A-10.
I realize the paint is a little off; I didn't really care too much about all that seeing as how it was my first model in so long.

I've got an F-18E Super Hornet I need to get started on. I've had the kit for a couple of years now, but just haven't got around to assembling it for a number of reasons. I should get started soon, while it is still warm enough I can crack open the windows to ventilate the fumes of that Testors model glue. That stuff is pretty potent. Hehe.
Oh, I happen to be 37 years old and I frigging love assembling models of military aircraft. If that somehow offends you, then good. I will further offend your delicate sensibilities by telling you to go take a flying fuck.

Is anyone willing to take on a commission for me? I have an important project. An 80's era USMC A4 Skyhawk that I just don't have the skills to build right. Not looking for museum quality. Just a nice, authentic looking build. I have many photos, and a nice example of what I need. Willing to pay.

I wish l knew how to post a picture. I worked up an A10 that turned out pretty good.
We have a place at the lake of the ozarks, and worthogs are always flying over while we're fishing. Always as a pair. And they almost always are low and close. Really cool. We figure they are from Whiteman. We see B2 's too. Not as often, but still cool. |

I'm doing a 1/72 P-47D at the moment. 57th FG, 66th FS plane from a news real I saw on the net. (Tamiya kit) I like doing this scale for display space reasons.
Next up will be a P-47N kit bash I think. 413th FG, 1st FS. |

I built car models as a kid, and a plane or two. But they always looked like toys. I have seen guys build military models at home that could be in a museum diorama.
How do you get the parts to join without gaps? And do you paint over the colored plastic so that it is not so glossy? I can think of worse things to do than building something detailed. |
