Previously-built Models

[JohnRatzenberger]

Here post 1-2 images of previous builds of GB-subject models. You do not have to be a member of this GB to do so.

If your model has a build thread on UAMF (old or new), then please include the link.

All things considered, this thread should run 50 or 60 pages if we all try really hard ....

Time to show some of my antiques...
I've mostly switched to more modern subjects, but there's still some survivors from a distant past. The models here are all between 30 an 40 years old, and all 1/72 scale.







As near as I can recall, the rear line are all Matchbox IXc (no idea of the markings match the plastic, on any of these survivors). The USAAC one is almost certainly the Airfix Vb, while the brown one is the Airfix Ia. The final model is most likely an early Revell. For obvious reasons, build quality leaves a few things to be desired, but hey, I had great fun with them back in the day.

Neither ricketty construction nor age seems to have dimmed their fighting spirit though; AZ*H jumped out of my hand when I was putting it back on the shelf and neatly amputated the leg of an FW190 with its wingtip I'm still debating whether to repair the victim, or just put it out of its misery.
