Model Aircraft Kit thread!

[High-Test]

Let's see some of your model aircraft kits, GTP.

Here's one MikeRotch could appreciate, a 1:48 scale Revell B-17G. -THe pics were taken with a cell phone, as many of you can tell.

I came so close to taking up model building as a hob. But the costs looked like mounting when airbrushes and compressors began entering the equation, so i canned it.

I have seen some excellent models, with fake weathering effects, oil effects and bullet puncture holes.

It takes some talentto pull off a believable model.

I got a Sukhoi SU-27 Flanker model, painted in an urban gray scheme. I had to have off the undercarriage because of the nosegear breaking as it was too thin. I'll post a pic soon.

Well here are the pics of my sukhoi:

Cool, sting!

I was trying to use ground up graphite pencil lead for an oil stain, but it didn't work out too well.

A long time ago, I built an F-105D Thunderchief, but my neice got a hold of it, and it sustained irreparable combet damage. Can someone please point me in the right direction to find a 1:48 or 1:32 scale F-105?
