My build plans:

1: finish I-180
2: finish Mi-24
3: start on Fujimi Bf-109 G-12

Sounds fairly easy but I rarely find time to install my airbrush and do some painting. I am fighting a silent war with my wife to gain control over the hobby desk. :whiteflag:

First thing to do is do a bunch of minor repairs to my builds that were in storage. Then I have 2x F-16's ready for decals and a Eurofighter Typhoon ready for paint

The G-12 should be an interesting build. Don't see too many of those built.

About how many kits can you have going at once?

I am going to build one in post wwii Czech service. I have a very nice masking set to make it. It is going to be my first try a masked markings instead of decals.
The Fujimi kit has mixed reviews and have some PE and resin I am going to use so I probably have my work cut out for me.

Wow... I would love to see photos of the Akagi! When I was growing up in Hawaii, I talked my dad into buying me a really big kit (at that time). It was the Hasegawa 1/350 Akagi. I had no paints at the time and just used glue and the decals but I remember it so vividly. I think the model came with a motor.

That was the old 1/450 Akagi,I built that one back in the 80’s as a beginner
