Completed Builds 2022

[Panzerwomble]

Thought I'd get this one in now as I won't complete another build before the New Year. 

 

Please feel free to post yours on this thread as well - maybe we can have one large thread rather than 30 small ones . Just a thought . 

 

1/48 Eduard Mig 21 

1/48 Hobbyboss Thunderstreak – first use of Silhouette home made masks- thanks to Max for advising me it was worth buying a Cameo / I'd be able to use it 

1/72 Revell S- boot – first ship / sea diorama in 40 years 

1/35 Revell Horche plus Minart figures- Totenkopf in the Ukraine 1943

1/35 Tamiya Schwimmer – Kaiserbaracke Crossroads Ardennes Dec 1944 -done this one a few times over the years 

1/72 Revell TwinTwin Otter  just for a laugh 

1/35 Tamiya new tool PZ II France 1940

1/48 Hobbyboss Seahawk from a picture onboard HMS Centaur my father took in 1959

1/35 Tamiya PzIII river crossing – first epoxy water attempt

1/144 Revell U Boat “Das Boot” 

1/72 Airfix old tool Typhoon - old school build, brush painted no modern tools or glues. 

1/72 Revell Dambuster 

1/35 Tamiya Kingtiger Ardennes LSSAH 

1/35 Meng Panther, Ruckmarsch ends at Rouen dock - Aug 1944 

 

Way too much 1/72 for my liking, and not an LSP at all this year. Sadly, I’m a disgrace to this fine forum.   

Started the year finishing off my various trials with Alclad NMF finishes, and ended up going back to large dioramas, with some boaty stuff in between . Where will 2023 go? who knows as at some point we will be moving house as well. Better make sure I have a bigger study.

 

Have a good New Year all.

 

Cheers

All very nice builds man!  I really like your water effects in the dioramas that you did them in.  I am about finished with the new tool Tamiya Panzer II as well, though minw will be in a desert setting.

I love all of them, however the 21 and the Schnellboot are my favorite. Thank you for sharing.

Did I spy AH hefting a panzerfaust PW, or is my imagination in reheat? Your boats look lively. Good luck with the move.

If you look on my profile under "topics" you should be able to find all my builds with more pics.  

The S Boat should be here Linky

He he , I see what your mean . Hair is not my fave to paint , so a lot end of figures up blond or black ! 

 

Thanks for the kind comments all

Wow!  That’s a heck of a list!

 

I completed exactly zero models in 2022, with my only excuse being about 1500 hours spent on remodeling my just-acquired (but 100 year old) house.  I did at least start and almost finish an ICM Gladiator for the Africa GB.  That will be the first of hopefully many for 2023…

I’ve had a crazy productive 2022 (for me anyway). I managed to complete 7x F-16’s in various colourful markings. I’ll pop a picture of each one up when I get chance to photo’ them individually. 

[aircommando130]

Those are awesome builds! Like others I love your water effects too!

Merry Christmas and happy 2023!

 

Cheers....Ron

Further to my earlier comment. Here’s a quick snapshot of each jet. Along with a couple of conversions. The SUFA was on gear until this year. It’s had aircrew and a new canopy.

 

Zeus.

 

Belgium ‘Blizzard’ Display.

IAF ‘SUFA’.

 

Hellenic AF.

Thunderbird 8.

 

USAF ‘Venom’ demo’ team.

Assorted ‘Aggressor’ vipers.

 

This one has a couple of decal missing after a bit of a varnish disaster. Replacements are in the mail.

2023 sees a couple more Vipers to finish off, and then I’m into other stuff……finally. 
 

just realised this is the non-LSP section.

I’ll get it deleted.

Brain fart alert.

@Stokey Pete

 

Phew thats a lot of werke ! 

I'm not sure I could serially make the same subject , although I 've built a lot of Panthers and Lightnings over the years. You picked some great colour schemes , not a "grey jet" among them 

Any thoughts about a Mitsi F2 ZeroViper in the future ?

I did consider it but saw how much work is involved in the conversion. Not really my forte.

Some of the best water I've seen Guy.    ( jealous  )

Nice work all around.
