I coming up to one year on here, following and getting advice from all the great and friendly folk on here I feel I have improved 100% but with lots more to build upon.

As a thanks to all the help and guidance I've got here I'm posting all the models I've built here in order to show how much better you guys have made me as a kit builder.

Esp thanks to Nigel, Carl, Tony, Terri, Stephen, Steffen, AW, Jesper, Eerie, Gerald for the help, advice and for running the GBs that motivate me to actually finish builds. And to the countless others who inspire with their build logs and tutorials for us lesser mortals.







I'll try to continue to improve with all the help that is so freely given here. I wouldn't have had so much fun build without you all.

Well then Jaypee , HAPPY BIRTHDAY !

Looking forward to your future projects

Hi Jaypee,

That's a nice collection you've got there. There's definitely been progress regarding your skills, A+ on the end of year report card

Goog to have you with us and looking forward to future builds,

All the best,

Mike.

I wish I could build 8 in a year
Its good having you here JP, and a pleasure watching you improve with every model
Nige

Congrats on the first year . Quite some year it is too . But, to express in a swedish manor, there is one cat amongst the hermines (boy that looks weird in english).

I'm glad to be used bouncing ideas, and I appreciate you're there for the same reason.

Build on Tony

Hi Jaypee,

Congratulations!

Jean-Luc

I wish I could build 1 in 18 months!!!

Jaypee, welcome, congrats, happy birthday...looking forward to your next build!

Nige I got the impression you where turning out P-47s quicker than Republic.

Thanks so much I could get bogged down with certain aspects of model making
but without finishing builds I wouldn't learn anything.
I'd end up really good at building but crap at painting or the other way about.

The strutter was my favourite to build and I've got a few bi-planes coming up,
a stripy fokker and a Se5a of the USAAF in red and white starburst, that I'm
really looking forward to.

Right at the back of the stash cupboard is revells latest lanc but that is for 2010.

Next up will be the 1/50 MC.72 my first foray in a larger scale. I'm beginning
to get attached to old rubbish kits. So I got myself a tamiya 109e and D.520
to cure it.

Jaypee: Model On !

I thought you had been on longer than that. My anniversary will be March 21 and I managed only a Nieuport 16, a Yak 3, a Halifax, a DH Vampire T11 and the F100-F. Not bad for 2 days a week! It is addictive though, and the advice and encouragement so freely given means that each build is stretching my skills further.




Sorry, no pics of the Vampire

Superb work, I've only been on the board for a week or so and this gives me some hope that the Typhoon I'm working on will be OK! I've already picked up some great tips on filling, decals and panel lines from the site.
