2007... a busy year

You have no idea how bad I feel that I forgot my best completed project this year. I am gonna go kiss my son now for forgetting him

AWww...what 2 beautiful bundles...congrats to both of you!

Regards, Dan

I'm afraid this is all from me for this year. Hopefully next year will find me a little more productive at the workbench....

Nice idea Wing-Nut. Here's my contribution for 2007. I need to slow down next year!

Andy

Great looking builds everyone. I only hope my first build comes out half as good.

Question........

Are you sure that's not one of those 6 inch joke pennies?

 He does have a kind of, "Hey, what about me?"  look on his face.  He's a cutie for sure.

Shhhh Andy.... I figured by now everyone has forgotten this pic but since your kinda new... welcome to the insanity BTW... I'll let you in on a a little secret...

WOW I should reshoot that picture... I've lost 40 lbs since then Now if only my hair would start growing back

Marc

I am actually still working on the P 39 for your group build. I did have a commision build to finish and my one 1:1 project as well, just like Mucker and Priest.

Dave whenever you get to it thats great.  Little 1:1 is more important.

By the way when I do finish the P 39 I will post it on the GB thread even if it is a little late.

Yes, great idea Marc!  I am really enjoying sitting back tonight and looking at all of these again.  I remember seeing almost all of them when they were finished, and it really is great to see them again.  It's also quite exciting to see what next year will hold for all of us.

Well, not a huge year for me. I had one join the shelf of shame waiting for me to figure out what to do with it.

The one I can't get a pic of is a 1/350 Fletcher class destroyer I built. It's on loan to a temoporary display and I have a couple things left to finish on it. But, the rest are all 1/48 in no paticular order.

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!

TLP and Mucker, Congrats on the 1:1 builds but I think 99.9% of the credit for the build goes to your wives does it not?!?  Give credit where credit is due.

Marc, congrats on shedding the weight.  Unfortunately I am going in the other direction with the weight but my hairline is going in the same direction as yours.

Lots of great work being posted here.  Keep the pics coming!!!! 

This is the only thing i've completed all year! But i'm still hopefull for a second at least.

You guys are incredible! It's a real drag that i keep letting petty things like eating and sleeping getting in the way

I dont know,  I am on the fence about who deserves more credit. I mean when moving, who do you give more credit to? The guy who loads the van or the one who drives it? Oh man I am dead when she tracks this thread down

Just like to toss out a suggestion, if i may:

Start a fire in the house. It's alot easier to deal with!

22 finished planes in 52 weeks is slightly over 2 weeks per plane.  That is an astonishing rate of completion, especially when they are all of such high quality.  Congratulations on a job well done.

Darwin, O.F.

I think he's going to have to join the Nasa program and get dropped off on Mars if he hopes to get away with that one!    Good luck TLP, nice knowing you!

The year.... 2015.

The place.... The FSM forum.

The players.... Fat, balding modelers.

 " Hey ... do you remeber that guy.... oh what was his name... the last something... TheLastPost?... something like that... must had something to do with a fence I guess.  What the heck happened to him anywa?"
