2020 in review. Due to being laid off for most of the year I had plenty of time to whittle down the stash…. January Italeri U-2S completely re-scribed Tamiya F-14B commission February Hasegawa/Muroc Models F-8K March Gallert Models UH-34D OOB except gun mount AMT Peterbilt 352 Pacemaker I used to build a lot of trucks in the 70's and just got a few this year-they seemed so much easier back then

Alclad -Polished aluminum, airframe aluminum and aluminum.

Thanks Gents

With Impact decals for VMCJ-2

Aifix P-40 done as Boyington's AVG aircraft. Besides adding rivets a bit of Eduard PE was used. Decals are a mix of kit and Kits World. Paint is Model Master medium green and fiels drab lightened a bit with white and wood, bottom is air command grey from True North paints.

You could hold the wing in place and trace out where it meets the forward landing hear bay corner. Trim that but down on the wing for a better fit, works foir their Intruder kits as well.

Folded rotors, added 2nd set of flare dispensers, cable cutters, intake covers, modified antenna suite, markings printed stripes painted.

Academy AH-60 DAP $65 shipped

Sometimes stretched sprue, sometimes thin lines of putty ike on this Monogram thud I did a couple of years ago

Man I'm getting old when the Monogram '86D is an oldie!

Where are you located? I have a built one I may let go of ($75) but it's rather large and I don't imagine it will be cheap to ship

Yea quarterfenders and cab front grab handles

Better late than never..... SPzAbt 503 Feldherrnhalle, Hungary 1945-Star decals

Haven't built a big rig in 40 years...

Just finished

Not 100% happy with the photos as the star and bars are not that blue that's an effect of the photo.

For a current project.

nose gear door part # B29 and rear cockpit deck part # G3 Have been looking for a couple of years now. :(

All 1/48 My first build of the year came a bit late, May 4th I finished Hobby Boss' A6A Intruder: May 15th I finished my fourth Airfix Lightning, an F.6 June 9th I finished a Kinetic F-84F I then found more things to do outdoors so it wasn't 'till October 15th that I finished a Hasegawa F-15C By November 9th I had Kinetic's Fouga Magister completed

Perfect-thanks

Building a ZM Phantom with the probe extended but no color info on the bay- I'm assuming white but you never know. Also the rear part of the probe that is exposed when its extended as the forward part moves out is? Metallic? TIA

Can't buy fine nozzles for the Aztek airbrush anymore either.

While they made a good go of it I'm glad they weren't overlooked and their sacrifice was aknowleged

Any mention of the Marine Corps contribution?
