Keeper Of The Force

It was a pretty productive year for me.

I really pushed myself to thin out the stash as models look much better on display than in the boxes.

I've also got a good jump on this year with the 11" and 22" Eagles started as well as the 1/72 Bandai Falcon and the 1/1000 Lambea tri-deck carrier

BSG 1/72



Old non-scale Earth Defense Ships and the small non-scale mecha bonus kits they come with from the classic "Star Blazers" (Space Battleship Yamato) Comet Empire series







JPG 1/72 Hailfire



Revell 1/112 pocket X-Wing



Imperial Assault AT-ST miniature



Bandai 1/48











Warmachine/Hordes gaming miniatures
Most of them are on 30 mm bases, the horses on 50 mm bases with a few like the chariot and the two "steam powered warmachines" being on larger bases
Some of these were only quickly painted to "table top" quality just so I could play them in tournaments that have a "fully painted" criteria or prize




























Space Battleship Yamato 2199 series 1/72 fighters






Space Battleship Yamato 2199 and 2202 series 1/1000 scale

Andromeda


UX-01 Transdimensional Sub




Garmilla Meltoria Class Warship



And the Yamato itself









Yamato Mecha Kits (these come out at 1/144 scale based on scaling up from the 1/1000 version)

All finished in 2017

My goal is to try to at least finish one or two things a month. I got tired of seeing a closet and shelves full of boxes and procrastinating starting kits because I had to get his upgrade or detail set for it, or I wanted to make it perfect, or scratch build interiors etc...

If I did that I would never build half of what I have collected. So I have been doing mostly straight out of the box builds, skipping the lighting except for kits that include it, or kits that really call for it. Same with going all out super-detailing stuff. I save it for a few select kits that need it

Ideally I would completing more kits than I buy in a year

I've created a database I use to keep track of what kits I have, when I got them, how much I got them for, when I started working on it and when I finished it, plus some notes regarding paint mixes or techniques I used

It give me some motivation to finish them when I see how much in total I've paid for kits and how long they have been sitting around.

Amazing results in one year, personally I like your Yamato stuff


And good luck with your goal, it's the same with me but I always fail...

Thanks for these explanations blakeh1
Your "politics" is rigorous but the best one to keep the line!
congrats also for that

amazing job!

I wish I could end so many kits in one year!
