The end of the year is upon us and with it my builds for the year. Surprisingly I more than doubled my output from the year before. And when you consider several of them were Resin, Vac, or vac conversions even more amazing for me. But here we go in no particular order....

My goodness, you took on some challenges this year. I've never heard of half of those manufacturers before. The Privateer is your masterpiece for the year, I think. 

Thanks Bertie. A lot were from limited releases form years ago. Sadly most of hem are long closed up or have passed away..

What a super selection. I love the Jaguar and the Sea Dart and the vac builds, and the Wendover and Privateer are super conversions. You don't like your hobby too easy!

 

Hoping you have a super 2022,

 

Regards,

Adrian

Nothing else better to do in retirement.. Besides a little challenge is good for the soul now and then.. Not the digestion though , but definitely the soul. Happy New Year Adrian

Yes, what a great collection and some very challenging projects there, but that is the whole point of modelling, isn't it? It would be very difficult for me to pick a favourite, but it would probably be the Privateer or Sea Vixen.

 

What a great yearbook,

 

Ray
