I'll have to see what I can come up with, I go in phases where I'll build a bunch of models and then maybe not build any for a year or two.
  Pretty much anything I had (tons of armor and aircraft) has been destroyed or lost (due to several relocations), but I may have some pictures when they were still on the shelf, right now all I have intact is my 90% complete USS Constitution and a British Airways 747-400.
  I'll try to post some pics soon.

Great models pal. I'll dig up a couple of shots of my own.

Sea Fury FB.11

Tempest MkV

Spitfire MkXIVe

My 0ld model shelf.

A few old photos here. I don't have my digital camera just now and these are the only shots I have on my comp. I'm working on a project at the moment and taking photos as I go (when I get my digi cam back) and I'll post them when it's done.

Like you hawker, I have lost, or destroyed a few of my planes, but some of the better ones I still have in boxes under the trailer.
Both you have great looking planes. I am sure that there are others out there looking for pictures still...cant wait to see them

that sound cool Craig. I used to have a 1/100 747 that was a premade. It was like the type you would find in the boeing's CEO office or a large travel agency. Well being young and nuts, on the day I graduated I had set up an awesome launch pad for it. The plane sat on a modified HO scale rail car that sat on some tracks that sat on a 2x4 that was at a 45* angle. Mounted next to each engine was a "D" size Estes rocket engine.  When the time came and the button was pushed the plane took off and actualy flew about 50 feet (15.25m). When it "Landed" the tail section fell off. Later that evening, I got an M80 from my dad (also known as a cherry bomb or a 1/4 dynamite) I sat the plane 100 ft (30.5m) from where I would be standing. I lit the bomb, threw it into the plane throug the rear and ran. When it expolded I was 100ft away and fragment hit my hand. The next day my friend and I went to see what was left. We found the tail, the wings and half the nose. We found fragments, in scale, about 100 miles away from the wings, including one piece that flew over the house.

lessoned learned....none.
just dont try this at home, I am a trained idiot

Chris

Craig you have a fine selection there, and I can only think of one more to be added.
The first of the Century Series should have a place in your history, for its notable contribution in being the first to be able to go "Mach" in level flight.........

i'll tell you now, when i first saw the Ad for these things, i thought they would be cheap bits of plastic that break two hours after buying them, but have been pleasently surprised, a few of them are a little fragile, but i do agree the F86, is an amazing model, i love how its almost all metal,
my favs have to be the harrier and the F-14. i broke the little things on the nose so it looks a little funny now:)

I have plane models as well.

However, those models are years old and they are falling apart like hell. Out of the 16 plastic models (assembly required.. ) that I have, only 3 are still in very good condition. I'm planning on putting away any plane that is not good for display but are good enough to keep. I'll also throw away any plane that is no longer worth keeping.

These are the models that are still in very good condition:

1. F-18 Blue Angels
2. AH-64 Apache
3. And a Russian one (can spell the name).
4. F-14 Tomcat

These are the models that I'm planning on putting away:

1. F-117 Night Hawk
2. SR-71 Black Bird
3. Spitfire MK11
4. F-15 Strike Eagle
5. F-16 Fighting Falcon
6. A-10 Thunderbolt
7. B-17 Flying Fortress (looks good when it's damaged. hehe)

These are the models that I'm throwing away:

1. B-52 Stratofortress (too small, too ugly, too cheap)
2. F-22 Raptor
3. AH-1 Cobra
4. Zeke (ww2 japanese plane. about the size of my hand)

There is a Museum called Wings Over Miami at Kendall-Tamiami Executive Airport. I guess I'll donate my useless planes to those people. That's where I got the F-22 Raptor. The plane was in poor condition and I managed to fix it and looked good for display. However, that plane then began to fell apart (after a month or two).

I want to show you the models that are in very good condition (after lasting for more than 4 years. Whoa!!), but I don't have a camera and no previous photo of these planes and choper

my F104 has a bent tail a little and my Harrier has one of its rear elevator thingys bent up a little. all decals in place though, i need to order the P51 as the store didnt have the thing in that week(they only get one in for me as it didnt sell well) i will also just order a new harrier edition with it. have a whole squadron of them:)
i was confused why they didnt include the Lynx, world helecopter speed record holder, back bone of the british army for years. when you look at upcoming models a few could have been left out instead.
looking forward to the Hind model, the F16 and the Cobra

Ok fellas, heres mine:


Unlike some of yours, theyre flying R/C models.

P.s Yes thats my house as well!

I agree, if you can build em, lets fly em and see them active in their environment........ .....we have a few R/C pilots on here, and have had a few suggestions of an R/C forum, but so far, I think the interest isn't high enough to warrant one. After all, there are many specific ones for that and this is really a virtual flying site forum. Thats not a knock, but an observation.  

That Nebula looks very much like a Gentle Lady and must fly about the same....is yours a two meter sailplane and how do you launch it?.....winch or high start (bungy) ?

ps: Love your avavtar....just to let you know, I touched the real Goblin........ .....it's so small !

Ok, here are the pictures I promised.

The USS Enterprise in fabulous cutaway view


And my Avistar

Pardon the wires hanging out. I just took this picture a couple of minutes ago while it was still charging.

While I am normally an aircraft modeler, I decided to do some motorcycle kits while recovering from a full sized motorcycle wreck Here is on of a Tamiya 1/6 scale Harley FXE1200 that I did.

Yes, it is a model, it's just the way I took the picture. Honestly guys. Here's a picture of it under construction.

  Hammerfly, I think you need to downscale your picture a little.
 
  Anyway, I found the only picture I know of that I had of most of the armour I built, it has all since been destroyed, it's not a great picture but you get the idea:

Hi Paz   Thanks for the armor pics.    Bring back memories, although my stuff was all WWII, except for a British Royal Chiefton.(hope I spelled that right)  Again thanks.

A couple of late war Spitfires in the shape on an LF MkXVIe and an F Mk21. Both in 1/72nd scale.

Perfection in miniature.

LF MkXVIe

F Mk21

I just love building these aircraft!

That the Classic Airframes Meteor F8 there Will?

Look at all those roundels(sorry if I missed spelled).  Who would have thunk it?

You know Will, as that very Meteor kit is sitting right there in that photo I posted you'd have thought I'd have got it right! ??? That and the fact that it is so obviously not an F8 with that fin and rudder. And I call myself a Classic British Warbird fan. D'oh!
