The hive in 2021: Borg Builds

[BorgR3mc0]

2021 has been quite a “interesting” year. COVID obviously, working from home, lock downs etc. On top of that we had a large reorganisation at the office. As a manager I had to fire 5 out of my department of 15. That was my worst week in my carrière.

As for modelling, I did two reviews for the IPMS (scud and Slave I). Writing an article is more work but I find it quite rewarding. I had a reasonably productive first half of the year. But the second have bogged down in work related and other stuf.

Without further ado, this years production:

Revell (ex toxo) 1/72 Scud B



Eduard 1/48 Ki-115



Revell 1/88 (!?) Slave I



Tamiya 1/72 Achi Seiran

Congrats on the IPMS work? Those all look quite nice.

Good set all of them!

But that Seiran

Oh man I really like the float plane - beautiful.
Ya, managing has it's challenges. I had to cut 1/4 of my budget about 4 years ago. Resulted in letting 26 people go and restructuring my teams. And they ask why folks at high levels get compensated so well.... to those I say try it. I just walked away from my VP position this past July. Done and done!

Remco, these are some fascinating models! Nicely done on that SCUD: I did build the Toxso model when it was still Toxso. I enjoyed it a lot!

Brilliant work overall!

I love that slave 1! Wait... can we even call it that now... someone said something about that on the internet, MUST be true...

Pfffffffttttt..... don’t listen to those liberals, cancel culture & woke crowd.
It was bad enough a school administrator in Rochester area banned Jingle Bells from their music program due to “questionable past”

Seriously though?!?

Very nice and diverse selection of builds! All the best for 2022.

Remco, those are four great builds from 2021! And kudos to you for being an IPMS reviewer on two of them. Your skills are certainly up to the level that a reviewer for such an organization should have!
