Nice, where is the place of honor in your house that it will reside?

Building some plastic models during the offseason
- Thread starter kingofnerf
- Start date
Added it to the Nerf Royal Museum yesterday.
I binge-bought $50 worth of diecast on the top shelf at the Toys-R-Us store at Columbiana a few years before it closed. Being a lifelong bachelor, it was the first and only time I ever went to a Toys-R-Us store.

Very nice. It looks like you will soon need to invest in another display cabinet.
Started on a 1/48 Navy F8F Bearcat to take my mind off of a bad baseball season.
Finally was able to resume the build. The decals could be a little thicker (had a couple fold under and had to fix them with a toothpick and little cussin') and the landing gear is kinda tricky.
Got the ordnance hung.
I'm usually do WW2 aircraft with no hung ordnance. It's hard to do it without screwing up the paint, but you just have to be patient.

Interesting, what's the timeline on "hung ordnance" on U.S. aircraft? I would have thought it was available for WW2, but that's me without any specific knowledge. So WW2 was all bomb bays? Were winged missiles early '50s?
Both Allied and Axis planes were firing rockets in the last year or so of WWII.
Model kits were toys for me back in the day and you can't have imaginary dogfights against Japs and Jerries with rockets under the wing. LOL
