Howdy folks! This thread is basically at the request of popeye, when he asked, "have you done any other aircraft models?". I love question like that he he.
Any ways, here's a group portrait of my better ones, all are in 1/48th scale.
On the Far left is a 21st CT Luftwaffe Messerschmidt BF-109 K4. To it's right, a Monogram F-14A Tomcat. Just below the F-14 is a Monogram SBD Dauntless dive bomber, the Hero of Midway. At the very bottom of the picture is Monogram's F4U-4 Corsair. To the left of the Tomcat's nose is a Revell British Spitfire MK II. At the very top is a Monogram P-40B Warhawk. To it's right at the top is Monogram's UH-1C Huey gunship helicopter. And finally, at the very right, is Tamiya's A6M2 Type 21 Zero.
Kinda puts into perspective just how large the F-14 really is, compared with fighters of the WWII era. With its wings extended, the wingspan is 64 feet compared to the German BF109's at a very compact 32.5 feet.
Thanks for looking, and I hope this was the answer you needed popeye!
