Your Last Three Models

Thanks guys!

John, it's been a productive year so far. Hopefully I can keep this up for a few more complesions before the holidays.

 Gary, I'm with you on the look of the Lee. Maybe we've both seen Sahara too many times  

Those last 6 are some great builds, Carlos!  I especially like the Lee (I have a soft spot).

Gary

Cranking out the stuff Stik.  Dig that Russian gun and the finish on the F-18 is fantastic.  So is the spit - heck they're all great.

Three more completions since my last update:

Monogram 1/48 F/A-18A

Academy 1/48 Spitfire FR. Mk.XIVe 

Well this week I finally got to three completions since my last posting on this thread.

1, Heller 1/48 Dassault Etendard IV M

2, Eastern Express 1/35 B-4 203mm Howitzer

3, Takom 1/35 M3 Lee

Lets see how long it takes for me to get three more across the finish line...

Yes - the decals were fantastic on this kit

And she is BIG - thats a same scale 737 next to her

That Airbus is really cool. Was the animal decal part of the kit?

Nice latest trio John. Its always fun getting up and running at your modeling workbench after moving. 

And reminded me of my last 3.  Spaced pretty far apart due to the move to AZ

1/144 Revell A380 - thanks secret santa.  The last one I built in San Diego

1/17 Mantual Coastal Cannon - Built in the apartment in AZ while waiting for our house to be completed.  Different medium, didn't require all my tools etc

1/48 Tamiya Rufe - first one in the new house/shop

Three beauties CN.  Whoe doesn't love a scooter?  And the antenna on the Uhu... wow.

My last three

Thanks for watching

The LED lights on the carrier is spectacular! I bet that took a long time to build?

PFJN2 - fun stuff.  Pretty eclectic variety!

Stik - Nice trio.  Begs a russian aviation vs ATST dio :) 

PFJN, that is some fanciful work on your last three. 

I was able to get these three across the finish line in the last week.

ICM 1/48 Mig-3

Monogram 1/48 P-40B/C

MPC 1/54 AT-ST

Hi,

I finally had a chance to finish up a couple builds 

JoeSMG

Beautiful work on all 3 Stick, love the Yorktown? diorama used with the Buffalo.

Frank, your three entries are lookers as well. Do you have an old thread round here telling how you do that killer checkerboard paint job? I would love to know your technique

Eugene, great work on a truly disparate trio! That bird of Prey brings me back!

 

 

Joe, this is the video I watched to learn how to paint a checkerboard:

.

Once you paint one checkerboard, the next one is easier, and so on.

The cutting board is very handy when doing doing a checkerboard pattern.

Great stuff FF.  The battle mechs are really cool

Well here are my three latest...

A couple of 1/100 3D printed Battlemechs fighting in a sandstorm...

Meng 1/72 F-106 A

1/8 3D printed Mandalorian 

Beautiful work on all 3 Stick, love the Yorktown? diorama used with the Buffalo.

Eugene, great work on a truly disparate trio! That bird of Prey brings me back!

Don't know how I missed so much!  Great stuff catching up.

castelnuovo - Nice builds.  Great looking Mig

fotofrank - fun whatifs and I really like the drone

Eugene - Great variety.  Striking t-bird colors

Stik - 3 beauties.  The prewar buffalo is really eye catching

Thanks Eugene. The Buffalo pleasantly surprised me by turning out better than I was expecting until the very end. 

TB, yeah I sure learned all kinds of model related improvising, but not for those slated for the target/demolition ranges....

Yeah Stik!

   But, my gosh, look what you learned. Those are great looking Builds! Because of situations I had to many times, refurbish Glue Bombs or survivors of Fireworks and B.Bs to have mine. learned a lot about what you could do with Typwriter paper, Revell Glue and Testors paint for sure!

Looking good ! especially the Buffalo!

Castel, Frank, & Eugene, those are all some sharp looking trios for your latest builds! Kudos to all three of you for them!

TB, models and my dad, reduced the amount of trouble I tended to find as a youngster. They never really eliminated that trouble, and sometimes even inspired that trouble... 

As for my latest three, I tend to lose track of where my latest builds are a new trio... but apparently I did complete three more since the last ones

First up, my 1/35 Dragon M48A1 GI Blues Elvis Tank

second up, is my 1/48 Hobbycraft VNAF F8F-1B

and my most recent completion, a 1/48 Tamiya F2A-2 from VF-2

Hey Stik!

 That's an AMEN There! I only had that choice because dad was always out and I had to be good. So, Models kept me out of trouble!

The Bird of Prey is pretty cool!

Oho! I definitely like the one in the Middle. I think that's a S-2F isn't it?
