A longer term project than normal. One I tinkered around with for most of the year and finally managed to finish off was this 1/48 Hobby Boss MiG-17F, AMS Resin's cockpit set, Royal Resin wheels and Quickboost gun barrels.

This 1/48 Tamyia Spitfire MkII Eagle Sqdn was rescued from the "Shelf of Shame" after languishing for about a year and a half. I used AeroMaster Decals, Ultracast MkII upgrade set and Eduard RAF seat belts.

Overall it was a good year in modeling for me. In addition to my usual aircraft subjects this year my 6yr old son has inspired me to branch out a bit! Next year will be sure to have even more monsters and and a few Super Hero subjects for 2011.

Happy New Year!

Thank you gentleman!...

I never thought I would say this about a Super Hornet but, the VFA-211 build happens to be my personal fav. My son has me currently tasked with building a Batmobile and Frankenstein's monster. This year is sure to have a few more surprises in store.

Cheers,

Mark
