Post your 3 pictures for the September Model of the Month competition Here.
Post your, single, picture for voting purposes here
Rules for the new Model of the Month. Please read before posting
1. Entries must be of your own work.
2. The model must be of an aircraft.
3. The model can be in any scale and in any medium.
4. The model can be “out of the box”, scratch built, or anything in between.
5. The model must be finished within the month for which it is entered. The model could have been started some time before the MOM for which it is entered, it is the month in which it is actually finished that counts. So if it isn't finished this month it may be ready for next month or the month after
6. 1 picture is to be uploaded into the relevant gallery and titled with what the model is of, I.E. VS Spitfire Mk Vc. No composites. This picture must be of just the model, no base. (For a model posed in the "in Flight" configuration" a small stand is allowed which can be used to either support the model or as a counter weight. A beaching dolly can be used for a float plane.
7. A thread will be opened in the general aircraft forum in which you MUST add up to 3 further pictures and you MAY add details about the build. The model can appear on a base or even in a diorama in this thread. Pictures must not be larger than 700 pixels wide, in either the gallery or the information thread. If you wish to post further pictures then open your own thread.
8. Pictures of models can be placed in the gallery from the first of the month until the penultimate day of the month (the next to last day) (see “5” above). (This is to avoid the time zone difference, I'm working on GMT)
9. Voting will take place over the first half of the next month, closing on the 16th. (This will be between 18.00 and 00.01 GMT)
10. Dragon are sponsoring this from June 2007.
11. Staff members of the Kitmaker group of sites cannot enter.
12. The rules will be added to when and if it is deemed necessary.
13. Any none complience with these rules may result in disqualification.
14. Ignorance of these rules is not an excuse for not abiding by them.

Hi all,
This is my first model after a long break from the hobby. I thought I'd enter for fun
It's an Intech F4U1A Corsair (1/72) finished with Humbrol enamels and Techmod decals. Good luck to all.

My entry - also a first in this forum: North American F-51D Mustang from Tamiya in 1/48 scale.
Model is built straight from the box with the only addition of seatbelts from Extratech. Decals come from Aeromaster sheet and represent a plane from the 1st fighter Squadron of South Korean air force in 1952. It's painted with Alclad (three different shades) and Revell enamels.
For the weathering i used the acrylic pigment powder and pastels.

My MoM September entry: An F-14A Tomcat from VF-114 "Aardvarks" 1976.
This is the 1/72 Hasegawa kit built out of the box wtih the addition of missiles from a Hasegawa weapons set. Decals are from CAM. An enjoyable build but a complex model with lots and lots of pieces!
Regards
Magnus

Here´s my Tamiya 1/32 F-14A Tomcat from VF-84 "Jolly Rogers".
This kit was built for the F-14 Campaign and more pics can be seen in the Campaign tread.
I have backdated the F-14A+(B) kit to an earlier F-14A so I could make this striking Hi-viz scheme.
I used a Cockpit from Black Box, etched parts from Eduard and decals from CAM.
Cheers and Good Luck to all!

Ok I am trying my luck. I couldn't upload my entry because I didn't have internet in the weekend. So if it is not accepted please feel free to remove from the list.
PM 1/72 Ta-183 Hückebein. I finished in 3 nights for the Airforce Museum contest. Some minor scratchbuilding is done in the cockpit(like the front panel) and landing gear bays. Decals are assorted from different kits and sets.
