<Major props> to Sub for posting the Burnell Poole painting. My all-time favorite naval artist, did some great iconic scenes from WW1, sadly largely forgotten today.

Oh, and...

I have been away for a long time...Just decided to pop by and it was nice to see the ready room.

Last time I tryed to count to 500 I pushed the wrong button and ka-boom, it was red and it got nuked.

Could we try again?

Some rules first...of sorts.

Try to keep it modeling/our hobbie realted. The picture accompaniing your number should be a model (whether you bullt it or not)or something that could be a model. For example, for number 16 you can put a model of F-16. 34 can be T-34. No model? The number on the model will do. No number, 4 barrels for number 4, then. Use your immagination...

If you really can't find anything, well, just post the real thing...

Allow me to start:

1 for Mig-1

 

EDIT ON FEB. 21 2013. SINCE THIS TREAD TURNED OUT TO BE QUITE A FUN ONE, I DECIDED TO CHANGE THE "500" TO "2000" SINCE THERE IS MIRAGE 2000. AFTER THAT, WE WILL SEE WHAT TO DO.

CHEERS...

Well, I was just wondering about how computer circuits, or whatever that post showed, plays into "modeling/our hobbie realted". I posted that in fun and I hope you recognize it as such. I know it is hard to find modeling related subjects and that we are going to have to compromise at times. Angel

No worries Sub Smile. I just googled images with number 1333 and of few hundred pix only that one had a number. It is the "...sort of" part of the rules Smile which kinda leaves things open to sort of other things. But I will keep it modeling related.

Interesting....just for smiles & giggles, I image googled "1333" and the 8th pic I got was this:

if I put "italeri 1333" I get this:
