GrandpaVader Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Well I am probably one of the sickest guys around, but I was always amazed at the guys that could list off what they built through the year. So I tried something this year, I went back through my pictures and searched by date to come up with a list of kits I completed this year. Much to my surprise I came up with about 24 with one more I expect to finish before the end of the calendar year. Here is a list of those kits, in no particular order... Hasegawa 1/48 F-15E (Part of the Build Along) Accurate Minatures 1/48 SBD-5 The Alligator ( a scratch build for the ME109 WF Challenge) Alliance Battlestar Galactica Eduard 1/48 Bell X-1 Eduard Hanriot Ertl Star Wars Snow Speeder Quote Link to post Share on other sites

She is half painted and should be completed by the end of the year. That would make 25 for the year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WymanV Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Nice stuff. Love the SBD-that fuse insignia really laid down nice! I try to knock out 2 a month, but I came up short this year-I didn't even build any armor... Maybe 'cause I moved twice? Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
