Oh man, let me see,

Currently on the bench,

1/350 replica of the Musashi wreck,

1/48 Monogram P-51D

1/32 Hasegawa P-51D

Next up, not necessarily in order,

1/24 Revel Foker Dr1

1/25 AMT 67 Shelby

1/48 Hasegawa Macchi 202

1/350 Arizona

1/200 Hasegawa 727

All's I gotta say is you are the man! I just don't know how some modelers do it with multiple builds and my hat goes off to you that can. I tried to build my 56 F-100 and my Bf109G-6 at the same time and it just aint happenin' for me. I just can't seem to get my work to flow well with more than one on my bench. I've seen guys on here and other sites that have in the upwards of 8 projects going on at one time.Surprise

Shoot. Waayyy too much. I've got a Monogram 1/48th F-100D that I'm building for the Monogram Mafia III Group Build. I just shot some paint on it tonight. I've also got the Academy 1/48th CH-53E that's being built for the USMC Group Build. A 1/48th Hasegawa A-7E and 1/48th Hasegawa F-18F are also sharing the bench, plus whatever I've got listed below........

I'm also starting on the F-4G in 1/48 from Haseqawa.

A Monogram 1/48 B-26 with a complete Edward PE set.

I wanted to learn to install PE is why i bought the complete set...HOOO BOY !  there's lots of it !!!! and I'm still attempting to install the first interior bag of it.  Got the pit done and traversing to the waist gun bays.  Sometimes I think I bit off more than I can chew but I;m hangin in there.  The parts bending is getting much easier and more enjoyable thru the experience though.  i found that using 2 sharp carpenter's wood chisels and a chisel- shaped xacto blade on a piece of glass in the bending process is working very well.

 

 

 

 

 

 I'm finally retired. Now time I got, money I don't.

Joe, I look forward to seeing you do some armour. Hope you can pop into the armour forum more often, there is usually some great builds and lots to learn going on in there.

I just stared on a Huma 72nd DFS 230 glider.

I am doing a dio of the assault on Eben Emael in 1940.

  

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

At the moment, nothing. I just completed the 1/72 Eduard Grumman Hellcat F6F-3. So, right now the bench and work area is under going rehab. You know, a thorough cleaning and reorganizing in preparation for the next project.

So, what's on deck for the next endeavor? I will be pulling a 1/48 Tamiya P-47D off the shelf that I had started a few years back. I met with a complete Alclad disaster on the fuselage and in despair I had set it aside. Rather than going into a complete paint stripping escapade, I obtained a second kit from which I will build the cockpit, fuselage and wings. All other parts are completed from the previous build.

This is a cool little thread that I forgot all about. Right now I'm working on a  Revell 56 Ford F-100 from the Street Demons series that was released in the 80's.

 

Here's the kit:

I'm currently in the final stages of Moebius Models The Dark Knight Rises Catwoman with Bat-Pod in 1/18 scale. Having built the Tumbler from Moebius just before that I think I'll try something completely different for a change...once I finish the Bat-Pod...and build a car. I haven't built any car models in years. I don't know which one I'll build. I've added a bunch to my stash over the past few months.

Current project(s): Hobby Boss: 1/72 F9F-2 Panther

Wow, it's been a while since I've built anything. I keep wanting to but just haven't gotten started. Right now, I have an AFV Stuart M3A3 that has been sitting there since June 2012. I have a half dozen AM kits that go with it and the tank itself is about 3/4 of the way done. First medical problems held me back. Then basement renovations kept me from working on it. Now, I'm better physically and the renovations are done. I have no more excuses and just need to get with it.

Might as well add a couple more I have on stash;

1/48th scale Hawker Typhoon Mk.I - Hasegawa (that's a Christmas gift I'm getting this year)

Yesterday, I picked up an old 1/72nd scale Supermarine S.6B by Airfix. This kit is dated 1973 on the package. Got it for $4.

I also have a 1/48th scale De Havilland Mosquito kit (Tamiya) on hold until after the holidays at my LHS.
