DesTROYers 2014 Logbook

[DesTROYer]

January 2014, it feels so much longer ago than that, for me got off to a flying start (no pun intended).

First bird on the flight line was my RAAF F-111C A8-130.


Then came the RAAF F-4E Phantom II A69-7234


next came my RAAF Mirage IIIO A3-89


RAAF F/A-18F Super Hornet A44-215


RAAF CAC CA-19 Boomerang A46-206 Milingimbi Ghost


you're probably starting to detect a theme, as next was my RAAF CAC Sabre A94-980


A brief Sci-Fi trip with two MkII Vipers from Battlestar Galactica, both were gifts for friends. Need to build another for myself.


RAAF F/A-18A Hornet A21-29


Just for something different, a US Army M4A3E8 tank.


Then back to the RAAF, with my award winning C-130H A97-010


My RAAC Abrams M1A1 AIM SA


and finally my Academy 1/48 SU-27B Flanker


Not a bad Tally, hey? I need to get in and take some better photos of the later ones.

Whats planned for 2015? I have two RAAF Canberra's to add to my Bomber fleet, a RAAF F-35A Lightening II, CAC Mustang, Australian Army Bushmaster & ASLAV-PC, another Sabre, Mirage and PIG, and whatever else takes my fancy. I'm gonna need some more shelves.

Thanks everyone for your support and help over the year.

Outstanding effort Troy and thanks for sharing.
It is a great having you and your excellent modelling efforts as a regular feature of our little site.
Especially love the Herc.....she really does deserve her award-winning status!!

First post updated with my two most recently completed builds. Thats the work bench cleared for the year. All projects done. Thanks to everyone for their assistance and feedback through out the year. You're not a bad bunch once you put aside your love of flying cattle trucks.

A hearty well done on your very productive year! I'm really envious of you guys who have been so productive modelling wise this year. It is inspirational for me though. 2015 was a big year for kit buying, but sadly not kit building. This must change for me in 2015!

All the very best for Christmas & New Year and looking forward to seeing your 2015 builds next year!

Thanks Adam.

You're not a bad bunch once you put aside your love of flying cattle trucks.

after seeing in QF10 from DXB night after night, I am realising just what an accurate description this is. The Economy zones of the A380 make the average cattle truck look clean, tidy, and orderly.

Absolutely a stunning line up Troy, sure you haven't got some Elves locked in a room helping you turn out so many models? I can't pick a favourite as they are all works of art, amend that.... the Herk will always work for me.
I like your cattle trucks quip, we have the real thing go past our farm everyday, I've already named them after airlines according to their paint jobs.

Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year to you and yours, looking forward to the 2015 output.

Cheers
