What If ideas/goals for the upcoming year, what are YOUR plans?

[scooter]

I do have some vague ideas, involving an updated Buccaneer and a railway diorama with a Dapol harbour crane, turntable and steam engine(s) but they are a" What-if-he-gets-round-to-it"  sort of notion.

Bucc clipping the harbor crane at low altitude and high speed?

Fascinating thought, but I've missed out some punctuation.  Insert a semi colon after Buccaneer, to make this two separate  items.

A nuclear powered airliner,  well there's been nuclear powered cargo ships and even a liner was built. So how hard can it be to whiff it?

The USAF did test a nuclear reactor attached to a B-36, specifically an NB-36H, and planned a nuclear powered cruise missile.  The latter would have scattered radioactive material in its wake to enhance its lethality.

For this year, I have finally started my Feachd an Adhar Poblachd na h- Alba ( Republic of Scotland Air Force) collection.
I have deliberately not used a specific timeline which, gives me a lot of flexibility in subject choices! 😉😊.
I have completed the C-27J "Spartanach" (Spartan) using the excellent 1/72 Italeri kit as the basis.
Currently in the paint shop is the Sealgair (Hunter) FGA.9
based on the 1/32 Revell kit.
That will be followed by the F/A-18E/F Adharc (Hornet) again, using the 1/32 Revell kits as the basis.
Photos to follow soon.
Just as an aside folks, this is a fun project for me and, I respectfully ask that it be viewed in that light.
I know I shouldn't have to ask that but,  when I suggest this project on other modelling sites, I recieved a fair amount of personal abuse.
People can draw what conclusions they like about my political views but, they have nothing to do with or hobby!
😊

You don't have to ask that here.

[PR19_Kit]

Yeah, we don't do 'personal abuse ' here, it's just not cricket, old boy. 

[Old Wombat]

'Tis called "What If ..." for a reason, we ALL build off the beaten track!

Some of us have our Alternate Timelines.

I, myself, build mostly to my Royal Australian Marines ATL & zenrat builds a lot for his Peoples Democratic Republic of Victoria (& zenrat Industries) ATL.

Others don't.

No-one cares!

I have a couple of Royal Scots Air Force builds in my display cabinet - so, you go!  (I'd say it in Gaelic but that I don't know any - sorry.)

I must say, I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of your builds. 

And, to cheer you on your way, here's my builds.  Mine are all 1/72, due to "Lacka" reasons - money & display space, that is. 

  based on an F-16XL  (ground attack)

  based on a Kfir C7 (air superiority)

  a stretched Lightning F6 (air superiority role)

a chopped Lightning F6 (strike role)

I made up my own decals - printed them on paper.  I sanded the backs to thin them down, and attached them with thinned white glue and over-sprayed with Dull Cote.

Thanks again to Nick I have my stash back,  it needs sorting out and what's left of my started builds to be completed. I think that I have enough spare parts and kits to build for a very long time. I had a quick look and the expression 'wow, did I really buy this? And why did I get two of these?' I found some miliput filler and plenty of clamps.

With my post-1989 USS Iowa battleship about 99.9% finished, I'm not sure what to start next.
Either:
a) Convert a 1/350 scale San Antonio class LPD-17 into a large scale NUMA oceanographic research and exploration ship.........with undersea diorama.
........or
b) Build an old 1/72 scale Testors B-2 stealth bomber kit and convert it for a theme titled "Santa's Coming by Stealth". The aircraft will be painted red and I might make a diorama with ground crew loading presents into the bomb bays.

I haven't decided yet.

I had the old 1/72 Testors B-2 Stealth bomber kit,  it has a few problems with gap issues around the wings and very little detailing.

I'd like to build one of these  in 1/24 scale
