I totally missed #10. I really like that. But where's 12, 13, 14 and 15? It's been 6 days since the Jug. What the hell??? Agreed. Da hell?

Hahaha...sorry to disappoint! Number 12 will be posted up tomorrow. Thought I could get it done tonight, but there are still a couple of fiddly bits I have to do before taking pics (FOD covers, couple of clear parts). Lot of decals on this one, took a bit longer than I had anticipated.

Well look at that!! Love the unique markings and paint, dupes. Cannot see any mistakes from here!

Good! That means that they're covered up enough for the pics, anyway...we'll see how they do under "judging scrutiny". I love the Brit markings - had a hard time picking one plane out of the 6 or 9 options I had in the basement (you should check the rest of them out). Next I should do a Luftwaffe one.

Another one bites the dust! I agree. I certainly don't see any faults here. Love the markings too. Would love to see one in German markings!

The Gallery is a cool place because of spotting such exotic kits, camouflage and markings like your jet here. What a great, colourfull build up, it is always a joy to watch stuff like this plane!

Sorry for the delay fellas...had to take my favorite cat to the vet this week. Things weren't looking so good, but he's all better now. So opening a massive can of worms with this one - opening the Pandora's Box of large-scale Battletech modeling. Going to get a whole thread going with a lot more info as soon as I'm able (there's a lot) because there's going to be a lot more were this monster came from (trust me!). The down and dirty - resin garage kit, super-limited production. Think "20 in the world" type range. 100% scratched by someone who loves Battletech even more than me! Pre-paint, after I had my way with the bag o' resin: And the beauty shot: Some more to get you in the mood, including the "ruler for scale" one: Enjoy!

I have no idea what this is, but it's cool and well done. Looks to be a pretty nice molding too for such a limited run. Looking forward to your educational thread and future builds So you finished no. 13 on Friday the 13th....seems fitting

Dupes that is awesome looking ! Where do you find these kits? Thanks Leon! I happened across one of the garage kit producers blogs doing a web search for...I don't remember what. Ended up getting pretty well embroiled in the entire community (for what it is - it's not a big group!). Got a LOT of projects headed this way in the near future! Promise to do a full build thread on the next one.

LOL...bet it will be a lot warmer than it has been!! 40 is better than -9!! Ain't that the truth! Hit 48 here the other day...felt like 70. Snow FINALLY starting to melt. Of course, the forecast for tomorrow night is 6-8 inches, but I'm trying to ignore that.
