Morning all,

I don't share my builds here often, but I thought a review of my output this year might be of interest. All are in 1/72.

I began the year building the Century Series jets alongside WW2 Soviet types.

So there we are. I may yet get another build finished before the end of the year, but it would be at a push, and I'm happy with that output.

Thanks for looking, hope they were of interest

Happy New Year,

Shaun

Great models , spot on, Thanks Rob ,

Wow, what a fantastic set of models you have there, well done on these,

Rob

Hi Shaun

Your modelling skills are a match for your camera ones, looking at that fine collection

Well done you

Patrick

Blimey Shaun - where do you get the time? Just visited your thread of 2021 and now these!

Tremendous builds - like that F-105G in the SEA camo!

Best

Darren

Great post , lovely stuff . Agree with Darren on the Thud but for me the Voodoo just pips it for top slot .

I am no modeller but these are superb. Not even going to try to pick a favourite.

Very nice work!

Have to agree with Darren above. Great year in photos and great models - where do you get the time? Nice themes too. Thanks for sharing

Many thanks all, glad they were of interest

Lockdown at the start of the year certainly helped with finding the time, but I must admit that has been harder to come by more recently but hopefully I can still reach this level of output in 2022 though

Shaun,
I always thought you were a good modeller, but you just seem to be getting better and better!

I take it you are still using the Hataka orange line for the paint?
Arabest,
Geoff.

Very nice ! Rob

Thanks for the additional comments chaps

Cheers Geoff, yes for the main part I'm continuing to use Orange Line, although I've started dabbling with MRP and Mr Color where necessary too. All very good in their own ways

Outstanding work... very impressive... I especially like the Lakenheath coverage of model aircraft.

Well done and thank you for posting these.
