2022 year end review

[Mo_]

I'll go ahead and start one. I don't think I will finish another kit this year. Too busy messing with this 3d printer. Was a productive year for me. I hope everyone had a good 2022 and what's left of it. Here's to 2023. Now in no particular order.

What a nice line up Mo. I was going to start this thread this year but I got nothing to show.

I am a bust on this year. Been entirely busy with more important issues and been making big progress against those. Hopefully, shortly after the 1st of the year I will be fully past all that and then I can be a builder of what I want and when.

I managed to finish 3 small dioramas,
2 pieces of Art [that I Post here so I incuded them],
as well as something that I think should also be included - my very long but completed technical history blog post , THINGS ABOUT 3's, on all the different Mk3 Pzr's [which included 11 models built but not painted].

THINGS ABOUT 3' s (July 26th Update)

PANZER 3 - DEVELOPMENT HISTORY, INTERESTING ODDITIES AND MODEL STUFF As the title suggests this will be a post on the German Panzer 3 and its myriad of development changes from the 'cradle to the grave'.

My Uboat post Silent Running, is still continuing and getting bigger but I have not completed a build yet and there are more technical histories to post. Hopefull that will have some content for the 2023 completed entry.

Very productive and diverse

Good to see some people are making progress!

Zilch for me, though if some masks come I might finish one this year!

Most of the models I made were for TLAR. During a time when families struggle to put food on the table and buy gas to go to work, sales have been less than stellar.
Here are a few examples of "Other people's models" I finished. The Golden Fying Fluck and the Missile Toad Battery were gifts/awards.

There are master class models here!
ok here's my effort;
All are 1/32 except the figure (1/6) the Condor (1/48) constellation (1/72) and the Bonanza (1/48)

 

[chrispisme]

oh ya, a couple more

 

[moon puppy]

Wow, you've been busy. Think we've missed out on some of these. Nice job Chris!

 

[Big10]

lol man, do you sleep?

 

[chrispisme]

Pretty well until about 2:00 AM when I wake up to go pee and can’t get back to sleep….oh wait that was a rhetorical question wasn’t it.

Doc told me that comes with birthdays so I stopped having them.

This is awesome seeing all these outstanding models done by such Masters! Quantity as well as quality! Stunning work! I only hope I do half as well.

 

[jeaton01]

I think I'm going to bet that the AN-225 is NOT 1/32! Nice body of work.
