I have many many models
MANY MANY MANY model miniatures
Its a pity only a few are finished.
My interests in models has changed since I first started.
Originally I stated with aircraft.
A 1/144 Mig-25 Foxbat was one of my first. It went unpainted and only half the decals went on intact.
I went on to do some more 1:144 scale aircraft eventually going to 1:72 scale
I still have a Mig-21 Fishbed (although the cobwebs make it look more like a cloud) hanging from my bedroom ceiling.
I built a "few" more
1:72 Sr-71
1:72 Wellington
1:72 F-117
1:72 B-52 !!(hanging from my bedroom ceiling)
I then did some 1:48 scale aircraft
1/48 F-111e?
1/48 Mirage IIIc
etc
I then found the joys of armour.
First 1:72 scale resin? troops and then some vehicles Panther/Cruiser
Then some where in here I go an airbrush (a little low pressure Tamiya "Sprayworks" one which I'm still using.
1:35 Panther D
1:35 T34-85 (came out really nice)
2 1:35 BMP2 (One ESCI, One Dragon) the Dragon one is better but both apparently have technical errors
1:35 BMP1
1:35 LAV ADV I like the 25mm rotary canon
1:35 LAV Piranha
1:35 LAV Command vehicle (The ESCI one in which the roof is far too low, bugger)
1:35 BTR 70 Dragon one with the crap "toy" hinges
A LOT of 1:35 scale troops
A few old Tamiya ones
then
Dragon Modern Elite forces.
lots
Dragon Police Forces
NYPD
LAPD
Dragon Nam Series
MACV-SOG
NVA Sappers
and then
Dragon 1/16 Warrior series
German Soldier
At the moment I'm trying to build a Dragon 1:35 scale Kubelwagon (the Hasegawa one) Since this is proceeding slowly (confusing instructions and a poor roof) I've started on a British 1/16 soldier.
