It's all good to me Bondo...Wink

My whole intent here is to show what can be done with those kits. Too many times on here I read, " ...stay away from R/M, they are junk..."

As can be seen here, that is hardly the case. While some are challenging and many are dated, I have yet to see any "junk" here. Some even win awards...

Do Revell reboxes count, or is this original R/Mono?

Here's one. The 1/72 F-82 which I did up SAC style with all handmade decals, except for the starsn'bars, the tail numbers and the "USAF" up top.

Owl, your Mustang is a great example of bang for the buck here!

How about a 1/48 Wild Weasel Thud? Probably my oldest build here.

Dornier 335 Arrow

Looking back on this one, I wish I'd done the two-seat Trainer now instead of the single-seat day fighter... Always thought the two-seater looked better as far it's shape and lines went... Reckon I'll just pick another pair and do up both the Trainer and the Nightfighter...  Again, lol.. Think I've built this kit at least 4 other times... It's the only "Luftwaffe '46"-style aircraft I ever was intersted in...  

I've even "flown" it in CFS 2 against 8th AF B-29s and P-80s, lol...  It's performance in the sim is really good, it's faster 'n anything Allied with props, rugged,  but it's under-gunned against the Superforts...  Against the P-80, it's too slow to run away in a dive because of the compressability issues, but will out-turn it at all airspeeds & altitudes, and it can stand on its tail and climb out of a fight with 'em like a homesick angel...

Here`s a 1964 Fw-190 that I built a long time ago...before I knew of FSM or any of the many techniques that I now employ on my builds.

nice builds Aggieman, those zig-zaggy walk likes on the B-52 must have been a pain! oh, and could you do us a wee favor and do something about all that empty space in your signature line? It takes up a lot of room ....

Hans, those builds are superb, but could you put the scale and name of the aircraft with your posts? I have no idea what that funky looking German one is called.
