Well 2010 is drawing to a close, what has been your best personal build so far this year. I think mine has been Eduard's 1/48 Hellcat. A great kit to put together, without taxing the wallet and patience to much.
All the best.

I would have to agree with you Tim I've built two of Eduards Hellcats this year and would greatfully build more.

The Hasegawa 1/32 Bf 109 G-10 I built for Terri's 109 Campaign went together without a hitch for me.

At the opposite end of the scale is the Modelcraft 1/48 F-82E I'm building at the moment. Every join has major issues.

I going with my 1/48th Kinetic Prowler.



Happy Modeling,

Aircraft wise, it isn't that much of a hard choice, I only finished one. Eduards Bf 110E (started a couple of years ago).

Other then that, my favorite was Knight Models Mk 1 Ironman.

One of my best builds this year is WNW SE5a and Eduards Pfalz D.IIIa in 48 scale . In ways though , all of the builds which I was able to finish this year turned out really well . Improvements on weathering , finishing and pick up a few more tricks for scratch-building ! Also learn't some new naughty words to go along with the frustration , which can't be rebeated here .
Was able to review some really cool products , help out a few folks and made people smile which is the real goal in life to my maddness ! ( But don't tell anyone - Okay !

My favorite for the year is kinda tough to decide on....depends on my mood.
Right now, I'll pick Revells 1/48 TBD-1, I got for ten bucks!!!!
Scribed and rivetted(one by one), and tons of scratchwork, and painted markings.

Well, I only finished 1 kit this year, out of 4 starts.. Airfix P-40E

Hi Tim

The Dual-Build with Jean-Luc of Eduard's Fw 190D-9 was the high-point of my modelling year. It's a great kit to start with, and you couldn't ask for more inspiring company to build alongside!

All the best

Hi all.
Some great builds on this thread.
All the best.
tim

If I can count a model I actually started in 2009, but finished in 2010, then my best would be my Wingnut Wings 1/32 LVG.



For a model started and completed in 2010, it would be my 1/48 Tamiya F-16C "Arctic Aggressor".



Cheers, and Happy New Year,

Well folks, my best builds? Well, certainly the most relaxing ones I did are the two below. One is the Italeri Republic P-47N, based on Iwo Jima. The other is the Hasegawa Mitsubishi J2M "Jack". Both are of course 1/72 scale, the scale I work the most in. I relaxed, and built each one over the course of successive weekends. Started on a Friday and finished on a Sunday. They may not be award winners, but I found that taking a more relaxed attitude actually sped things up a bit for me. They came out respectably I believe. Thanks for looking. Happy New Year! Russell

For aircraft I only built 2 but this was the one that seemed to come out the best in my opinion

For me, it was the Eduard 48 scale P-39N Profipak. I got it for a song and it' goes together very well. It looks great with Soviet markings on the Olive Drab/Neutral Grey colour schemes.

My only build this year, so probably the best
