The year in review, 2017
It was a busy year for me, especially with family and work. Even so, I managed to get three models done, all in 1/48. The Pogo was a what if that started out to be a scale project and turned into more fun than anyone should expect to have. The Corsair started as a quick build to get me out of the Dornier doldrums I contracted working on a Do-24 flying boat, which is still in work. The Corsair only took three months! The DC-3 was personal, representing an airplane I flew and worked on during my nomad mechanic days a long time ago. In between these models, I managed to overhaul and repaint an 82 inch span radio control F7F Tigercat that I built for a friend ten years ago.
Next year's projects are on the bench now. I'd like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and hope your holidays are filled with family, friends and laughter.
And good modeling, whatever you build!
Backatcha, Jaime...(love that headline photo).
Jaime that "what if" Pogo is just pretty!I always thought it was a better looking VTOL than the competitions. That one just looked clunky! Nice Corsair and civil Gooneybird, as well!
These are all great, but being a BIG fan of the DC-3 (& 1 & 2) -C-47 family, I like it best!
Go Gooneybirds!
Nice work! Merry Christmas to you!
I also like the DC3 best Jaime, merry Christmas to you and all iModelers !
You have certainly been a busy man my friend... Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Family, friends and laughter, that's the spirit!
Very nice builds, the Pogo looks really cool in what-if markings! Happy holidays!
