This should be good! You're really starting to get into 1/72 lately...

Starting???...72nd has dominated the bench for a good 3 years now. I'd say I'm darn near "all in"!!!Stikpusher wrote:
I have definitely grown to prefer 72nd...but I still have a sizable 48th stash and a couple few 32nd and a couple 24th stashed as well. Haven't bought anything bigger than 72nd in quite some time!

Welcome to my world. 1/72 scale is all I build in when it comes to aircraft and vehicles. I do feel it is the most fun to do; and you can't beat the display space for them!

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Re: 1/72 Italeri A-10 WIP
I definitely enjoy all aspects of 72nd....size/display space, variety, price. Although, that big Harrier is a nice change of pace!
I'll be crackin this kit out tonight....got a couple deer hangin in the garage that need to be taken care of first though!

Re: 1/72 Italeri A-10 WIP
I keep going back and forth between 72nd and 48th. Definitely taking a liking to 72nd for the post-war builds.

Re: 1/72 Italeri A-10 WIP
I agree. That's why I like doing modern jets in 1/72 scale due to their size. A 1/72 scale modern jet would be my "1/48 scale" kit. LOL!tempestjohnny wrote:I keep going back and forth between 72nd and 48th. Definitely taking a liking to 72nd for the post-war builds.

OK...so I lied! Clearing the yard of all the fallen leaves took a lot longer than I expected....and by the time I finished up with the deer...Fermis wrote: I'll be crackin this kit out tonight....got a couple deer hangin in the garage that need to be taken care of first though!
...I was wore out and too tired....hit the sack, so I could get up early for another hunt. I had four deer stroll through at about 30 yards...easy pickins. They were all yearlings though, and I didn't want to take a little one for #60. I hung up my crossbow and broke out my camera (does not focus well on zoom).
I let them go on by...they bedded down about 40 yards behind me. As far as I'm concerned, that's a good trip to the woods.
Just after they bedded down, I spotted another, headed towards my buddies stand. He didn't see her until it was too late. Then another, coming in behind him...shot my buddy a quick text...."BUCK....behind you!".
Nice little 7 point.
Here's another happy little critter...
Anyway...The Harrier is getting put aside momentarily and the A-10 will be on the bench...today...I promise!!!
Re: 1/72 Italeri A-10 WIP
Nice. The A-10 should be a lot of fun to watch.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
