Seawinder's 2016

[Seawinder]

I didn't come anywhere close to my informal goal of one completed project per month, but I did manage to finish six this year. In order of completion:

 

Tamiya 1:48 Dewoitine D.520

 

amiya 1:48 Do 335 A-0

 

Hobbycraft Grumman F8F-1 Bearcat (with some parts from a Trumpeter kit and a lot of aftermarket stuff)

 

Accurate Miniatures 1:48 Grumman TBF-1C

 

 

Hasegawa 1:48 AU-1 Corsair

 

Eduard 1:48 Mirage IIICJ

 

Cheers and Happy Holidays,

Pip

Nice Avenger, I've got one for the bench next. Hope it turns out as good as yours, I have one question for you in regards to the observers seat come with the kit? As I'm thinking of doing mine in FAA colours, I was pointed down the 4 man crew concept, but having done a little research I've found that not all were 4 man.

Thanks, Ozzy. As far as I can remember, the AM TBF kit doesn't have the observer's seat. I seem to recall reading a WIP article in which the modeler described scratchbuilding the station/seat.

Vice nice work (the Avenger is my favourite too ).

Superbly finished models there especially the Dewoitine, which you don't see very often.
