Best year ever (over a dozen builds!)

[Phantome]

2016 may have been an awful year for the human species but it was an excellent modelling year for me. I decided to include as many of my builds in one same place so here goes and also a description of each one (in order of build). All are 1/72 scale.

Fantastic output for a year - put's my meagre effort to shame!

Thanks! I usually average just 4-5 a year. Not sure why this time I felt so inspired. It helped that I had a "finish at all costs" mentality which means I didn't bin anything or leave them half built.

It looks like you have your own private airforce!

Awesome builds, I really like the Rafale and F-4F!

A great selection of builds, hope they're not left on that table!
