Wow, great models John! Way to go and congrats on getting them finished!

Mo, it may be only one, but it is a superior quality one! Brilliant!
 
Are you getting all healed up, Warren?
Hey John, yes but slowly. Still in physio 3x a week and exercising daily. The doctor has me putting some weight on the leg but stretching out the muscles after 3 months is going slow. I can bend my leg to about 60 degrees from straight at the moment.
 
I had lots of projects in 2021, but I don't feel like any of them are finished. Bravo to the Guys that actually build a model kit!
 
Excellent Work Everyone!!
With the beginning of 22 upon us I'm looking forward to another great year here at the Alliance!
🥳🥳
 
With a winter snowstorm rolling in on us, we decided not to chance on a trip to Marion to play with friends & Family for New Years Eve.

Teresa finished one of her Christmas presents. It is rubber band propelled and rotates about 70 degrees every time you set the mechanism.

Thank all for looking in, comments are welcome.
 
Thank you Dave! I'm very happy with my collection. Yeah, I'm still trying to figure out what to do with that Antonov once I get it fixed again.
