Next is 1/32 Tamiya F-15J as an Aggressor, decals from Two Bobs.

Slow year, did three builds. First is a 1/32 Trumpeter A-4E Skyhawk with Zotz decals, nape bombs from AMS.

More Planning on at least two more, A luftwaffe and Canadian bird. Don

Kinda forgot about this one, despite all the naysayers you guys should really think about getting this kit. More pics. Don

Yup, big difference in bad cold and flu. Had diagnosed flu twice, both times turning into pneumonia that nearly killed me. Flu shots never bother me beyond sore spot for a day or two. Down for two months both times before getting anywhere close to normal. Hospital for weeks both times, 104-105 temp, not capable of doing anything for a looonnnggg time. If a flu shot helps prevent that from happening again, i get one. Don

Never used to get the Flu shots, then i caught pneumonia twice in consecutive years, almost died twice. I get them now and had a pneumonia shot. Get colds, etc but been good since. Going to avoid getting the flu as much as possible, shots are included in preventive measures for me. Pneumonia might be three times unlucky for me. Don

Title says it all. Don

Like you, i made a suggestion along the same lines awhile back, too. I suggested any squadron but at different points in time. Rictofen ME109/F-4F Phantom, VF-17 Corsair/VF-84 Tomcat, 617Sq Lanc/617 Tornado VMA A-4 Skyhawk MA-211 Harrier..... I also suggested nose art being part of the build, not as many but there are still combos. I could do two builds, but for those that can't or don't like jets/props/biplanes i suggest you partner up with another member who does do the builds you have no interest in. These are done in the same build thread, so scale wouldn't be a factor as they're just the

May enter the GB later on with a Canadian Zip. Finishing this one on another sites GB. New 1/32 Italeri kit.

Whuuuuuutttt???? Don

Left a lot out, This is the Trumpeter A-4F kit, with decals from Zotz A-4E Skyhawks in the Vietnam War. The Snakeyes came from the Academy Hornet kit with the TERs from the kit. MK 77 Napalm cans from AMS with drop tank from a Hasegawa A-4 kit with the tailcap from AMS. Paints were Tamiya or Model Master Acryl. Don

The classic Snake and Nape loadout!! Really did enjoy the build, much prefer this kit to the old Hasegawa kit. Thinking of doing a newer A-4M from Trumpy, or an IDFAF conversion. Thanks all for the positive feedback. Don

Marine Skyhawk based at MCB Chu Lai, 1969 Don

Done five of the big eagles, this is my latest build. http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?showtopic=47829 HTH Don

Do. Or do not. There is no try.

Yup!! lost the fairing and hook, then found them. Will paint/decal/install soon. I left a lot of info out, this is the Tamiya 1/32 F-15J kit with Two Bobs decals. This was built in a Group Build over on Large Scale planes. I remember when these decals were released, how there was a lot of anticipation. Then, I can't remember seeing more than 2-3 completed 1/32 builds online. Funny how that happens. Don

Few more pics Don

Sorry Kris, for not updating sooner as i've been busy with life/work stuff. The kit and decals arrived last week, thanks again for all your hard work. I've been busy with a Factory Five 33 Hot Rod at work and researching assembly info after work at home. Some pics. Thought some of the gearheads might get a kick of some pics. Don

Another great Group Build with lots of great builds!! Thanks to Kris for all the hard work and effort and for getting some great sponsors and prizes. Don

Ok!! some outdoor pics finally. Don

Ferrari looks like an anteater. Or a vacuum cleaner. Don

Just had a look on Macs Modelling, that is a bit expensive. Would have to think about those ones. Truthfully I thought WOW!!! That's out there!!, but when I look at how much some aircraft stuff is it really isn't too bad. There's other stuff he as, too. If/when I do another 1/12 build i'll have o have another look. Don

Cripes!!....this ones going down in the build pile...far down...too bad it's not in 1/12( yeah, that would make it all better )...Where do I get these decals?. Don

Oh cripes!! YGBKM!! Is the front spoiler covered with the CF decals, too? I could build mine without the CF, but I get the feeling it wouldn't look right without. Looks great, looking forward to more. Don
