FAR148 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 (edited) With 2021 coming to a close, I can look back at my builds I finished this year and still be excited about them. All are 1/48 scale and are “What-If” builds. First off the work bench was my Republic of China Air Force Forward-swept wing IDF F-CK-1C. She is by far (Pun intended) the sexiest aircraft I’ve built this year. Kit is AFV Club IDF F-CK-1C. She was followed by my USAF camo Mudhen. This was a product of two inspiring images. The build was straight forward other than the big fool missile. Which was mastered from a writing pen and a piece of styrene tube. Kit is Revell. While on a roll, I manage to wrap up my long nose USAF Wild Weasel Saab Viggen. This build was much more involved. Her new nose was scratched built, molded and pressure cast. Bunch of resin parts and a $hit ton of decals! Kit is Special Hobby Saab AJ37 Viggen. And “Douche Nozzle One-One”, my imaginative tanker version of the F-35C was my last build of 2021. This is my one and only Kittyhawk build. The kit is absolute garbage to today’s standard. But I managed to power through it because I was more excited about my idea of the build than the kit itself. She is the heaviest model I’ve built. All her flight controls including her folded wings are resin. Along with nozzle, wheels and tires, ejection seat, drop tanks and pylons.

kurnass77 Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Lovely builds, the F-35 look pretty "natural", almost a "can be"! The Thunder is awesome , remember me the fighter in some the latest G.I Joe cartoon seasons Gianni Quote Link to post Share on other sites
