Re-posting this since my original seems to have disappeared.... :bash: :bm:

Now that I finished up my last models for 2021, it's time to post my Year in Review. It was a very armor heavy year, mostly due to my drive to get to 1000 completed armor models I guess. Here we go....

And that wraps up my 2021 modeling year. Forty models finished for the year; not bad, but still under my old average. Regardless, I'm thrilled to have gotten all these done!

Thank all for looking in, comments are welcome.
 
Mark,
You had another outstanding year in building.
Please keep them coming.
It helps me aspire to complete more models.
I did finish 13 in 2021. Not as many as you, but, 13 has been my average yearly total since retiring.
 
Thank you Frank! Don't worry they will keep coming. Maddog Manufacturing has too many to do to shut down. Currently I have one on the cusp of finishing, and three or four more ready for paint.

Stay tuned; I should be posting my newest update soon when Maddog Manufacturing opens up for 2022....

Thanks again for your wonderful post!
 
Oops! I forgot one that I'd finished last year. It is a real crappy job but at least this dog of a kit got done!

This is the IBG Diamond T Wrecker, poorly finished back in November... but finished:

Maybe someday I'll get another one and try again to do it right.
 
Good works Mark! Lots of diversity as always which I like...hope 2022 is good to us all!
