Here's a link to the interview with ICM, cool enough but cooler she is a woman.

Why do they call you Phantom? 😆 Great collection.

I like it!

looks good

Great kit that is quite a challenge to build. Yours came out looking good. Agree, the canopy is a real problem.

My recent completions.
Dora Wings Winnie Mae in 1/48. It is a very nice kit and comes out looking good.
HK Models B-17G in 1/48. Very nicely engineered, the wings just snap on! Great if you need to transport.
Thanks for looking.

Impressive!

That is a great paint scheme and you managed to make it look very good. 👍

Took me long enough. The Beast is finally finished. Wanted this in my collection for many years and now it's a reality. Modelsvit 1/48 F-82G of the 339th FIS(AW). ResKit wheels, and Aerocraft Models 3D printed exhausts. Tamiya acrylic gloss black over MiG chipping fluid, pastel chalk exhaust staining. Old Eduard injection PSP base. Multiple issues are keeping it a 3 footer. All self induced and not the fault of any components.

I haven't looked at the arc home page in a couple years at least, since it hasn't been updated.

What about "legacy pairs". Pairing a commemoratively market jet with its WWII or Korean War or Vietnam Conflict namesake.
Passionate Patsy comes to mind as others before.
That's a cool idea

I have been watching too and am humbled by the prospect of death and tragedy that those men faced every time they flew a mission. Truly a remarkable generation. It is only the fact that all those lost lives truly made a difference to the outcome that balance out the tragedy.

That’s great. I’d consider it an honor if a museum took my work to be put on display.
Me too!

About 10 years ago, I started building some of my aircraft kits to be posed on a stick and displayed in flight. This at least allowed me to make more efficient use of the space on each shelf. This has helped for a long time. Now I am in the process of focusing on reducing my stash as the boxes occupy the lower sections of the shelves.
That is an awesome collection! I try to reduce my stash but it seems to stay the same size. Haven't figured that out yet.🤔

I live near the USMC museum in Quantico, VA. I reached out to them to see if they would be interested in having some display models. I heard back from them today and they asked me to send a list and pictures and they would get back to me.
Fingers Crossed 🤞

I have come up with a solution. I have taken pictures of all the models I have built over the years. The problem is there is no way to look at them as a collection. I started thinking if I could put them in book form with details about each build I could convince myself that it would be ok to get rid of the built models. Every few years I would just have to make a new book. I need to look into Snapfish to see what the cost would be to make a picture book . I will let you know. I have contacted the local VFW but I have not heard back from them.

The thing I question is wouldn't the gun be a better solution? A lot less expensive than a million (?) dollar missile against an non-maneuvering, simple flying bomb. I dunno.
This is possibly a fake news item.

This picture was taken at Paxcon 2023.
Ah yes that's where I saw it. Great job!

That looks amazing!

it was a most satisfying change to see other people viewing them, rather than fellow modellers casting critical eyes at shows!
That's a good point

I too am at this point. I have kits built, sitting on boxes because I have no more room.
You can check FB marketplace for someone selling display cases. Thats what I am doing. If you have no room for more cases, try selling the kits on eBay. You might also check with a local VA Hospital and see if they have room and would be interested in creating a display area for your kits. Or a local VFW. May even check with a local VA owned retirement center.
Heck, maybe check into a recruiters office and see what they say?
Great ideas
