CliffB Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 As usual, my output in 2016 was largely driven by Group Builds (thanks guys ), and club competitions. All are 1/72, apart from the last one. In chronological order there was.... 1. A 'New York Airways' S-61L, which combines a Transport Wings vac-formed fuselage and white metal parts, with bits from the old Airfix Sea King kit. Originally started in the 2015 Sea King STGB, I finally finished it as a KUTA. 2. A Bolivian 'Chaco War' Vickers Mark E tank, using the Mirage kit. Part of the Made In Britain GB. 3. An Egyptian de Havilland DH.60G 'Gipsy Moth', using the (very) old FROG kit. Another Made in Britain GB entry. 4. A civil registered Westland Scout, in its retained ex ETPS 'Raspberry Ripple' scheme. It's the Airix kit, with Airwaves vac-formed canopy and PE parts. Built for the Helicopter GB. 5. A Bulgarian Su.25 'Frogfoot'. An old Revell kit, with Linden Hill decals. Built for the 1980's NATO Europe v Warsaw Pact GB. 6. The new Airfix Defiant...... 7. and the old one! Both built for a 'West Midlands' themed club competition. 8. An RF-8 Aerosani (ExtraTech resin kit), for the Great Patriotic War GB 9. A Bolivian Klemm 25, built in 18 hours straight from the Huma kit, for the Blitz Build GB. 10. A DERA Harrier T.4, from the Heritage Aviation resin kit, with Combat Decals decals. The kit was given to me to build as part of a 'Kit Swap' club competition. 11. A 'Galettes St.Michel' Mauboussin Corsaire from the Dujin resin kit with home made decals. Built for the Vignette GB to replicate a period photograph (1950s). 12. and finally a1/200 scale Aviogenex Tupolev Tu.134, from the Aeropoxy kit. Built for the Airliner III GB. Overall, I've had a very enjoyable modelling year - largely down to you fellas! So cheers and Happy Christmas Cliff 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdrianMF Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Nice year's worth! I love the Gypsy Moth and I was lucky enough to see the Galettes St Michel vignette in the flesh at Telford - you had stepped away from the stand.
