Gotta love that Mummy.

It was a fun project, for such an old mold it had nice detail.

Got to agree with Dave; gotta love that Mummy! It also reminds me of one of the best songs with DyNAbyte... You've done good modelling this year, here's to next year being good in the other respects as well. :thumbsup2:

Everyone loves their mummy!

Nice work Chris - stand-outs for me are the Chi-Ha and the M41 - very nice indeed

Armor has always been my forte, even though I like building planes more!

A busy year Chris :thumbsup2:

I wish i had done more this year, at least I'm getting better at it. Only the P-36 was messed up (by a chemical reaction to the flat finish). If i ever get some money together i can get a regulator for my air compressor and then do some really fancy camo, for now I can't control it properly.
