Fozzy Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 (edited) Hi every body I only joined this fantastic forum I think during this last summer and I have to say that I feel that I have made some good friends even though I have never met them!!I expect if I did meet them I would probably hate them! .................no really I found that it makes modelling more fun and the help and encouragment at times I have had in this short time of being a member has been fantastic!...So a big thanks goes out to every one who has taken an interest in my model making. Having looked at some of the offerings from most of you I'm afraid that I only have a few models to show for this year.This is because I have been concentrating on teaching my self to scratch build and it has taken me a lot longer to finish a model than it used to !! So any how here are my 4 models I have built this year. Starting at the beginning of the year I finished this 1:48 scale Monogram Corsair F4U-4.......as you can see I pretentiously used as my Avitar Then I started Scratch building and had a go at building a Sopwith F1 Camel.......this was built mainly out of Balsa Wood and paper card and is in 1:20 scale Also during the year I won a International Competition here in Bulgaria with this JU87 Cut away Stuka ....and finally this year I finished this Scratch built Westland Lysander in 1:30 scale....again Balsa Wood and any thing that I could lay my hands on.. Well thats it for this year I guess....just leaves me to say that I hope everyone has a great Xmas and New Year. Cheers Fozzy Edited December 25, 2010 by Fozzy 1
Murdo Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 Absolutely stunning stuff Fozzy!!! I've seen the pics before and I was very impressed with the Lizzie but absolutely amazed by the Stuka! Made me very very jealous! Haven't seen the Camel before though, again a superb job.
Mark M Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 these are the best builds of the year by far well done these are the best builds of the year by far well done
Wayne Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 Fozzy, maybe you should consider putting a little detail into your builds? Jokes aside, fantastic scratchbuilding there! Wayne
Fozzy Posted December 25, 2010 Author Posted December 25, 2010 My thanks to Murdo,Mark and Wayne for looking in....and a very merry Christmas to you all! Cheers Fozzy
Deon Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 Amazing work, I couldn't imagine doing one of them in ten years let alone four in one year.

crookedmouth Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Fozzy - I only just spotted this. I have to say I love the Camel to bits. As for the Corsair, I didn't know you did "proper" models - lovely though. And all the other stuff... lovely. Pretty lovely all round in fact
