I have a couple GB's to start / finish which are my current 1/72 AC-119 Stinger and a 1/350 Yamato for a future GB. Outside of those builds I want to complete at least a couple cars, some modern armor, one rather large flting thingy, and a surprise thrown in there..... like a figure dio.

We do have 22 months in this year, right?

Being a teacher, my bench time is limited but my main priority is to finish current builds on the bench. My Arizona has been in dry dock for years. I’m still in the process of masking the deck to paint the hull and super structure. The P-40 is painted and awaiting decals, weathering, and final fitting out. After these are done, I’d like to complete a 1/48 Monogram B-17 that a friend picked up at a swap meet for free. The previous owner had only painted a few of the interior parts so it’s virtually unstarted. My goals for this year are to finally post pics of my builds here (kind of intimidating-you guys are awesome) and get on my first group build. I have about 12 kits in the stash so I have plenty to keep me busy.

I don't have a build thread for it. I should finish it in a couple of weeks and would be happy to share some of the small issues I had with the kit.

Well lets see.

I have a pretty good idea what the beginning of my year will look like.

Italeri 1/48 V-22 Osprey

Planned:

I've pulled several from the stash to the staging area, but that doesn't necessarily mean I'll build these.

Kitty Hawk 1/48 XFU-5 

Academy 1/72 B-17B Flying Fortress

Revell 1/72 C-54 Skymaster

Revell 1/48 Mistel V Ta-154 & Fw190

I'm like a dog chasing cars.  I will try to finish some of last year's GB entries, and get some new builds in this year.  There is no shortage of stuff to build!

I like to plan ahead, means i can make sure i have what i need before i start a build.

My prioity is to finish off mt 72nd U-Boat. But other than that.

1/72nd aircraft:

MPM Bf 109g-12

Italeri Bell 212

Airfix Ju 87B-1

Academy Bf 109E-4

Italeri Ju 88A-4/Torp

Hasegawa Eurofighter Typhoon

Airfix Victor K2

MPM Wellington Mk Ic

Airfix Beufighter TF.X

1/32nd Trumpeter Me 262A-1

And 3 1/35th vehicles.

AFV Club 251/1 Ausf C

AFV Club Scimitar

AFV Club M109A2.

Whether i get through that lot or not all depends on the U-Boat. I usually manage everything i have on my to do loist, but this year might be a stretch.

hey tojo - you're pretty organized.  not at the point where i keep a list!  I however just finished the edouard Lysander and cleared the bench to take some time with the stamp collection.  Then who knows?  I may be ready to get back to it OR ill do a Lego Land Rover Defender (about 2700 pieces) my wife gave me for Christmas then back to the plastic.....  Wm

 

Yes,but always subject to change

Sounds like a comprehensive slate Tojo. 

I am really hoping to finish a bunch of the twenty or so 'shelf queens' I have built up.
