    Your chance at deciding the future

    Here's your chance at deciding my future!

    I build as a hobby both 1/48 and 1/72 vintage aircraft kits. I lost most of my collection in a move several years ago. I am currently working on a 1/72 Airfix JU-87 Stuka Tank Buster, but what vintage warplane should I do next?

    Whichever has the highest ranking at the end of November in the above poll will be the next kit. When complete I'll post a pic to show that it was completed.

      I have to take pics of the 2 unfinished kits that I have currently. At one point I had over a dozen finished kits, but alas, they came up AWOL after I moved last November.

            Agreed. And it looks badass too. P-51 is kinda generic, been done by many before. Love the messershmidt too.

            on the stairs, she grabs my arm, says whats up,
            where you been, is something wrong?
            i try to just smile, and say everything’s fine.

                  Looks nice! I like the detail in the second plane. So how do you display them? Dangle from the roof on fishing string That's what I'd do but my room would look like a 12 year old's.

                    Nah. I have a square mirror-bottomed display case that JU 87 currently resides in. The FW I still have to find a home for.
