OK I the year's already like, 8% over, but I only just managed to finally have some decent amount of daily allocated modeling time to do this.

For this year, I will commit to at least three whatifs, in no particular order:

1) Super Strike Gripen
2) Production F-20
3) Something P-40
4) Phillipine Air Force COIN Su-25.

There.  Now I've said it and I have to build.  Everyone else join in, and let's motivate each other to keep whiffing!
"We can resolve this over tea and fisticuffs!!!"

Keith Diamond

Finish my 1/48 F-16C Satelite Killer, 1/48 Phil AF F-4J, and my 1/48 Hawgs.  Then after that

1/48 F-16A USPS
1/48 F-16A Phil AF
1/48 CF-166CG Block 42 Canadian Snow Viper
1/48 F-15B USPS
1/48 CF-155A Canadian Eagle
1/48 CF-155E Canadian Strike Eagle
Man, we should have cloned twenties. Jackson wouldn't have given a poo-poo.

B777LR

At least 1 or 2 for me. Super Mirage 2000 swiss air force. Archie knows already :D  

Sentinel Chicken

To make prints out of some of my whiff-illustrations! Wink-wink, nudge-nudge!

Shasper

Finish a few of my long-stalled projects, a couple more Ceylonese MiGs, UK B-52 mk.1 tanker, and a Sea Master for the BTR IPMS show coming up in April. Also finish my PPL by mid-March and get caught up on my backstory writing.

i've got a mig-21/starfighter mongrel that needs doing, a mig-23/f-16 that needs doing, and a mig-23/mig-29 that needs doing.

plus there's fun to be had with the spares.

this year i'm really going to try and get something done.

UUUuuumm, I love cardboard (Cardboard, Yum!!!)
OK, I know I can't stop scratchbuilding. Someday, I will build something OOB....

I think my favourite is going to be the Belafonte II...but the SeaTiger runs a close second.

PolluxDeltaSeven

I have myself a lot of projects (I'm not talking about the ideas, there are too much of them!!) for this year:

-Finish my Delta Force A-37
-Greek Super Crusader
-Brazilian Navy Super Etendard
-USAF F-24 Tornado (licence build Tornado ECR)
-Finish the two models in the Phoenix Group Build!!!!!!
...

Well, that's all! I won't have the time for everything so I hope I could finish at least 3 or 4 of them!!

Here are  few I wold love to get around to this year:

Hasegawa 1/48 A-4E as a RN Skyhawk FG.2-based on one of Jennings' profiles.

Hasegawa 1/48 F-104G in NMF as an RAF Starfighter F.1

Airfix 1/72 Vulcan as a USAF B-54A Vulcan in SEA 'Arclight' colors

Monogram 1/48 F/A-18A as an RN Hornet FRS.1-F-18 in RN colors

Trumpeter 1/72 Wyvern-either as a USN or USAF Vietnam bird

Trumpeter Sea Hawk as a USMC Korean CAS machine

There are quite a few other that I want to do, but I'd really like to get to at least a few of the ones on this list.  Naturally, spur-of-the-moment impulse builds may mean that I reach December 31, 2007 without finishing any of these!


So I got that going for me...which is nice....

Allan

I think I'll make my 1/72 P-1101 next, but I haven't a clue what to do with it. I thought maybe invasion stripes and in the markings of Meyer, the American Colonel---you know the Petie 2.

Allan in Canberra

Gervasius

After an incredibly unproductive 2006, I hope to finish at least something.

IRIAF Tu-160M "Superjack"

F-12C Star-something AWACS-killer

And a nest of F-15 Eagles in RAF service:

Eagle F.1
Eagle T.2
Eagle F.3
Eagle FGR.4
Baldrick: I followed Mr Da Vinci's instructions to the letter.
Blackadder: Even though you can't actually read.
Baldrick: No, but I have done a lot of Airfix models in my time.

How about as Gallands machine but in the post-war West German Luftwaffe, say the threat from the East led to a quicker rearming of West Germany and the pushing into production of late War projects  ;) .

As to resolutions, i'm not sure what takes my fancy this year.

Currently i have:-

Revell 1/72 S-100 Sbboote -real
Hawker P1179L for the SIG VTOL build
TSR2's for the SIG stand.

But i haven't found a project for this year as yet  <_<  

Radish

Ah babies, I have plans.
But ideas leak into my brain, and then mature, evolve or disintigrate.
My wife finds the word "mature" rather strange when related to any of my activities though.
So....already finished for 2007.....
Mick-17 Frisky 5
Jugular Jaguar
:wacko:
The F-4D+(P) is almost done.
The Spider Crab NF.10 is well on the way.
The Ornithopter Dakota will be finished by Saturday.
:wacko:
Lots more to finish.
Crusaders
Seafire 47...French Navy
Sea Fury
Harrier
etc., etc., :wacko:  :wacko:

And others will come along too like more Phantoms (at least two more F-4J "versions"), another Jaguar, Super Etendard, P-47, and so on.
Let's not forget the tanks, Hind heli.... :party:  :party:  :party:
