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

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,

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!
