Seamus Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Morning all, Allow me to present my yearbook for 2021. Starting the year in lockdown meant I was able to carry on with my pace of last year, and although life has got in the way in recent months and slowed me down a little, I've still managed 22 completions, which isn't bad going. For this year, I chose to build to American and Russian themes, which I find helps focus my builds and prevent burn out. As ever, all are 1/72 scale, and posted in chronological order. For those interested, more images can be find by clicking the links to the RFI thread. I began the year building the Century Series jets alongside WW2 Soviet types.

I may yet get another build finished before the end of the year, but it would be at a push, and I'm happy with that output. Thanks for looking, and for those of you who took the time to comment throughout the year Happy New Year, Shaun 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRMRL Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Wow Shaun, these are stunning. The detail for 1/72 is superb. Quite a few of my favourite planes in here too. I really love the F-111 and the Delta Dagger, beautifully finished, but so are the others as well. Again, wow 😃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
