A good year so far

I haven't posted much but I have built quite a bit. I've also had a few builds that didn't see the light of day.

So far I have finished;
Special Hobby Stuka - 1/72
Hasegawa Kawanishi Shiden K1J1 - 1/48
Andrea Miniatures Last Samuarai in 54 mm
Tamiya Crusader Mk 1 tank in 1/48

On the Go;
Italeri/Esci Valentine Tank - 1/72
Italeri/Esci Carro Armato M13/40 - 1/72
Tamiya Thunderbolt P47 D - 1/48
Andrea Miniatures Huron Indian Warrior - 54 mm

And the disasters
Eduard Fokker triplane V4 Conversion - 1/72 This was 99% done and i screwed the paintwork up to the point where it needed stripping (You try to do that on a Triplane). End result the wings got torn away and I didn't have the energy/motivation to fix it. Martha has it on her shelf, Not sure why.
Tamiya Supermarine Spitfire Mk5B Screwed the decals and paintwork up, then lost my temper and threw it. Moral of the story paint don't decal black walkway lines. lol I have never yet built a spit I liked. The darned original aircraft is so one of a kind its not something that really looks right in a model. (To clumsy looking imho).

Oh well that's it for the moment. My in progress list is supposed to get finished before year end lol no chance........

Oh forgot I entered the Last Samurai, Stuka and Shiden in the IPMS London and Ajax Shows.

Last Samurai came second at Ajax and first at London.
The Stuka came Second at London and Ajax
The Shiden came Third in London and didnt place in Ajax
My first real tank the Crusader went to Ajax and came third... Hrmmm perhaps my models are not as crappy as I think.. lol

That Rotten dog can swim

Andy's first time in water. He seems to think he's a fish, must be those short legs of his. Of course being Andy immediately he came out the water he had to roll in the sand and get filthy, so back to the water to try to get some of the sand out.

Martha was much better at keeping him out of the sand..

Andy gets a haircut

Sheesh, he looks like a real well behaved dog. Well for about 5 minutes. Later in the day he was rolling over in the dirt and generally ignoring any attempt to keep him clean.... Thats my Andy

Two other things I am working on are this Morane Monoplane in 1/48th scale and a 54mm native American from he early 1800's. The Morane has sat on my bench for close to a year. I don't normally build in 1/48th as I loose interest after a while, this model could be on my bench in the same condition a year from now. The figure is new and has only been underoated, I'll post more as these models progress.

Havent been posting lately

I have done a little bit of building though. Here are some pictures of the Fokker V4.
