Like Bill said, your one model far outshines my 44 by miles. You've overwhelmed everyone with quality while I did so with quantity. You have every right to be proud of the one; it is a most noteworthy accomplishment.

Here is one that I forgot.
I did a side by side build with my daughter on a couple of Stuarts from Academy in 1/35th scale. She did the orange one. She really did do all of the assembly, and painting of the three color camo (I helped her airbrush the base orange color) and the pin wash and dry brush! Not bad for 9-1/2 years old. Go girl! Floyd was just for fun (and I really enjoyed (and still do) the freedom of going off-script and not worrying about anything ... (accuracy, rivet counting, correct colors, etc…). It is still one of my most enjoyable builds. (Something to consider when we get "bogged down"). Decals were from some Ma.K battle suit kits.
Cheers,
Bill

2012 was a bit of a slow year for me, I only completed 5 models:
Of course, I did also launch two much bigger projects this year as well, which ate into my bench time considerably:
...but my bench is been very busy lately so hopefully 2013 will make up for it.

1/72 Grumman X-29 - well I finished it after 3 years
1/72 Whirlykits vac formed De Havilland Swallow

1/72 Tasca Akuyaku
hmmm - more than I thought

Thanks Bob, I try to build at least one aircraft every year, right now I'm working on the Great Wall Hobby 1/144 Vulcan.
Super nice kit so far.
Here's my year:
1/48:
Just two finished P-51's from Tamiya, 1/48 is not my scale
1/72:
Biafran B-25 from the Hase (revell) kit with zotz decals
two colour full birdies, tamiya and academy Aztec decals:
My personal favorit, Dominican Thunderbolt, from the Tamiya kit, used 40 years old Stoppel decals, worked great!!
Dominican F-51D, Blackbird models decals and tamiya kit
Bolivian Sabre build from the Hobbycraft kit for the camo campaign, whatta fun build!!
Dominican P-38, academy, gave me much trouble! :pinch:
Nicaraguan F-51D, tamiya aztec decals
Bolivian Cavalier Mustang, hand painted sharkmouth
Salvadoran F-51D
I think this is the last one
Not to shabby
