I'd be happy to finish just 2 1/72 models in a year! :)

Nice work. I made 25 1/72 models in a year once but now I've moved up scale I'm lucky to get 1/2 dozen done. Shame about the Rumpler. I do like the Afghan DH9. I had to look at it closely to realise it wasn't real. Fantastic bit of weathering on the side panels.

   That's a pretty impressive inventory for just one year of modelling, Dave, and all very nicely done. You've had a very good year, what's on the list for 2017?
Cheers,
Lance

A great collection of models for just one year of work, very impressive, I really like the Meteor.

Great collection of planes and this in just one year. I have to tell my wife that it is necessary to spend more time in my man-cave.
Thank you for showing.

All very nicely done, and quite a collection for just one year! I have almost managed 8 in 1:72 this year, but then I was out of work for over 6 months!

Very impressive and all beautifully done, Dave, averaging nearly one per month!  I'll be lucky if I can finish 4 this year.
Cheers,
Bud

Very impressive, Dave. I'm staggered that anyone could complete these in just one year!

I am shooting fpr3 and 2 of those were started in 2015  :-[ Your completed models are all awesome! A shame about the "Crumpler" Every time I see the Meteor I want to break out my kit and Pheon Decals!

Well done, Dr Dave! A really great number of models for the year - and simply awe-inspiring quality! Very, very, nicely done! you are one of the few modellers who admit trashing a few models but just carrying on! That is inspiration! Regards, Marc

Great display of your work this year Dave. The Meteor and Skoda are very noteworthy. WTH happened to the Rumpler?
Cheers,
