Title: My 'Other' Collection - Just For Fun
Post by: Chris Johnson on May 03, 2012, 09:10:59 AM
The following is my collection of 'other' aircraft model I've built. I've built a grand total of two! I'm picking up some WWII kits that happen to catch my interest and I plan to build them as relaxation between biplane builds. As with the following, they'll be OOB and just for fun.

My first WWII monoplane was Monogram's Devastator. The yellow paint scheme really caught my eye.

My second build was Monogram's P-47 in Pacific theatre markings.

I'm considering a Tamiya Heinkel He 219A-7 Uhu after I finish my S.E.5a, just because it looks so weird. That could change tomorrow though!

Cheers,

Chris

Great stuff Chris. I think the first kit I ever built and completed was a 1/72 P47, long lost....to me they've always seemed to be big brutes, would love to see a real one!!
