Thats some good stuff! It's cool to see a lineage like that in aircraft and how the design on one affected the other. Have you thought about maybe doing a Wildcat and Hellcat to go along with these two killer builds?

It was a VF-142 bird, and that was the first thing I thought of when I dropped it. Maybe some day I'll make a diorama of that. Like this one!

After taking a break from my Tomcat for a few days and reading all of these encouraging words to fix it, I decided to go ahead and tough it out. I'm using a mix of bondo and gel super glue to get back to "flying status". Thanks guys!

GWS Ork Bomber - Converted to a Ork Colonial Viper WHOA! This is straight up bonkers! (in the best way possible) I really dig creative stuff like this. :thumbsup

Well, that 1/48 Tomcat I was working on went into a flat spin, i.e. I dropped it, and the nose broke off. I know I can fix it but I'm just as easily tempted to trash it. :bangs head

Congratulations on the award. It is well deserved! I love how you really captured the look of "annoyance" on some of the soldiers faces.

Very cool Phantom! How fun was it to put on all of those data stencils? :blink:

I really love the diversity of this site! In these last two pages of this thread alone you see some crazy awesome trench digging tank, a killer rail car being made of wood and a really cool Viper which it different from the F-16 Vipers I'm used to.

I like to refere to my workbench as The Iron Works since I usually have at least one Grumman subject being built at any one time. But as of now I have 3 Grumman aircraft going. A 1/48 OV-1D Mohawk, 1/48 F-14D and a 1/72 F-14B.

Hahaha no my band doesn't, but some friends of ours in another band do.

Lets get things straight Moon...I'm a NERD! not a geek.

Whoa! This looks awesome! On a scale of 1-10 how difficult was this kit? It seems fairly straight forward but sometimes those kits are the trickiest.

YUP! And I quote the whole movie and sing along to Highway to the Danger Zone every time. haha :pilot

This is a pretty cool thread. I've been building models since I was 5 years old. A friend of the family gave me a Monogram snap-tite Space Shuttle kit for my birthday that my dad tried to help me build. He sat at the table for 5 minutes before he got frustrated and gave up. That's when I...

That's a killer looking Scooter!

Thanks guys. For some reason I didnt take any WIP pics until yesterday so that's all I have right now. But don't worry, I still have 3 more to build so I'll post plenty of photos for those. Thanks again for all the kind words. Cheers

The owner of my local hobby shop used to fly the Mohawk and commissioned me to build all 4 models, A- D, of the OV-1. The only aftermarket I'm using it the Cobra Company cockpit which, is a huge improvement compared the kits offering. Even though the kit somewhat supplies decals for the walkways...

It is this Saturday Feb 21st. More info can be found HERE!

Is anybody on here going?

Very cool build! That black and red scheme looks really sharp. I can't wait to see it finished
