Seamus' Year in builds

Evening all

Not sure if I'll be finishing any more builds this year, so figured I may as well post my yearbook. Not as prolific as last year's total of 23, but I'm pretty pleased with the improvements I've made. I've posted them in chronological order, so hopefully you can see the improvements too, apart form the Canberras that is.....

All in 1/72, of course :D

Yours has been a very productive year, Shaun.

Congratulations on a fine collection of marvellous builds. I enjoyed following the progress of your Harrier build in particular and the result is excellent.

Good year Shaun! I see you and Mish have been keeping the GB's going!

My fave has to be the Heinkel 111. That paint distemper finish is absolute quality.

The Harrier would have been good too, except for its latent gayness. :evil_laugh:

Thank you all very much for the kind comments folks, much appreciated. I'd also like to thank those of you who take the time to follow and comment on my builds :worthy:

Hopefully the mods will do the right thing and warn you for stating such blasphemy :wicked:

Merry Christmas

Shaun :santa:
