antony robertson Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Hi all. I hope this is the right place to post this, but i wanted to start a thread showing what i build during the year, if its in the wrong place please let me know! Any comments please feel free to post away! First up is the Revell C-17A Globemaster 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sea-monkey Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Awesome work! I have this kit on order - can't wait till it arrives. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aggressor Supporter Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Good to see one of these little ( ) C-17 guys built. Looks great! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
antony robertson Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 Thanks for the positive feedback guys! Next up is a kit i started last year which got put on the back burner for a while as i had to decide which decals i was going to put on it. I wanted the blue JASDF Phantom for ages and bought the kit specifically for it, but then i won a set of Zotz decals for a dragon decorated plane! After a lot of deliberation the blue scheme won and the kit is now finished! so here is the 1/48 Hasegawa F-4EJ Kai in the 8sqn colours! Kit is OOB except for a pair of Aires resin seats!

Alan Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I like your Phantom- very nice indeed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
antony robertson Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 My next build is the 1/144 Trumpeter F-22 Raptor. This kit was bought less than a week ago and went together so nicely and with such little fuss that it was assembled in only a few hours! The kit has fully detailed weapons and gear bays and comes with a good array of weaponry and external tanks. It is painted in the 2 tone JASDF blue scheme for the what if group build. Decals came from a variety of sources, including the kit, aftermarket F-4 decal sheets and the panther logo from a Mitsubishi F-1 Comments welcome Quote Link to post Share on other sites

antony robertson Posted April 17, 2009 Author Share Posted April 17, 2009 Time for a few updates! First up is a Dragon 1/144 Tornado ECR which has been painted in the display scheme used by the Italian Air Force. It still needs the Roundels putting on. Decals are from my 1/48 Tornado kit reduced to 1/144 scale! All comments welcome Quote Link to post Share on other sites
antony robertson Posted April 17, 2009 Author Share Posted April 17, 2009 Next up is a Sweet models 1/144 Sea King done in Royal Navy colours. This is the 3rd one of these i've built and they are brilliant little kits. Again any comments welcome Quote Link to post Share on other sites
antony robertson Posted April 17, 2009 Author Share Posted April 17, 2009 Last up is my 1/32 Academy F/A-18D Hornet. Built totally from the box. A very enjoyable build and a very substansial kit when done! Feel free to leave any comments! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mildenhall rules Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 dude, looks awesome! I like the angled stabs! The pilots came out a treat too. might have to give one a go in 144. Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caudleryan Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I have that kit, also. I afraid of the stripes, though. RYAN. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
antony robertson Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 I have that kit, also. I afraid of the stripes, though.RYAN. Hi Ryan Dont be afraid of the stripes, the easiest way to do it is one part of the kit at a time., marking out the stripe outlines with a pencil then painting them afterwards. If you try and do the whole kit in one go, you'll just get confused and put paint in the wrong places (believe me, i did it!!). Good luck with what is a very nice kit to build.

antony robertson Posted May 3, 2009 Author Share Posted May 3, 2009 Time for another update guys, this time a 1/48 Italeri Tornado from the Italian Air Force in the Black Panthers special colour scheme. I started this last year and it sat in my half built pile until i finally got round to finishing it. As normal feel free to add comments. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
antony robertson Posted May 3, 2009 Author Share Posted May 3, 2009 Next up is the Revell 1/144 scale BAe146, painted in Flybe colours. It was supposed to be in Jersey European colours but due to a self inflicted decal mishap i had to repaint and re-decal it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

antony robertson Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 Time for another update, i've been quite lazy about updating lately, so got a few to put on, but got to take some pictures first. This update is for a Classic Airframes Canberra T.17 in 1/48 scale. It was built for the Canberra GB on Britmodeller but i thought i'd share here too. Please feel free to comment!
