    I have been modeling 1/32 a/c since, well, I can't remember when (I started plastic modeling at age 5). Probably my first large scale plane was the Revell F-102, the one with all of the cool moving features. At present I am in the midst of a TF-104G conveersion, an X-15A2, and a Spit IX, Highflight conversion. Next in line will probably be the FW 190C-0v18 Kangaru conversion. <br />Otherwise, it's 1/35 modern armor, HO railroading, and 1/18 diecast Porsche protoype racers.<br />Oh. yeah, my real focus is my 12 year old. That's why so little gets done in modeling.

    I don’t suppose building two Italeri F-104’s counts as a multi-engine build, does it? Bill Winkes

    Excellent job on this kit. I’ve just picked up the TF-104G, your build is a guide and inspiration. Thank you.

    Su-25M1 / Su-25UBM1 is coming.

    billwinkes replied to Eagle Driver's topic in DN Models

    I have this ser, too. The Trumpeter Su-25ub kit is near completion, assembly that is. Paint is next. It will be a somewhat formidable task. Bill

    Rogozarski IK-3 Royal Yugoslav fighter

    billwinkes replied to AEROPOXY's topic in Vendors Board

    Long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away, I converted a Monogram 1/48th Hurricane to resemble an IK-3. Probably my first radical conversion. Used a couple of pounds of putty. I’ve always been fascinated by the aircraft of the small states of Europe, pre-WWII.

    F4D....the Ford

    billwinkes replied to Dandiego's topic in Ready for Inspection

    Mighty purty. The Ford has always been a favorite of mine. Your rendering certainly does it justice. Best of luck at the contest! Bill

    A favorite scheme. The yellow version is on my future build list. Superb job, sir!

    A stunning job on a very basic kit. Thanks! Bill

    Beautiful job on a difficult camouflage. I have a sweet spot for Romanian Aircraft as my son is Romanian. Your 109 is superb. Wish I could model as well. Thanks Bill

    Welcome, welcome. Your SU-25 is spectacular. I'm currently working on the Trumpeter SU-25ub, same camo. I hope mine approaches yours.

    Thank you for posting your excellent build. It motivates mr to continue my own Su-25ub.

    Any interest in a NF-104A conversion?

    billwinkes replied to a topic in LSP Discussion

    The NF-104 is one of my favorite aircraft -- X15, junior. I'd be part of the market for the conversion.
  33. billwinkes

    Oops.

    Markings available and what kit?

    billwinkes replied to Shawn M's topic in LSP Discussion

    A likely source, but in 1/48th, will be Syhart.

    I'd love to have the early Hunter bits and pieces. Lots of lovely schemes.
