Here's my commercial vehicles...

[Mark Deliduka]

I'll start with my aircraft. I have completed the largest collection of small commercial aircraft in 1/72 scale over the last couple years. Here they are:

 

Aurora Piper Cherokee 180:

 

 

Aurora Piper Aztec:

 

 

Eidai Beechcraft Bonanza V-35:

 

 

Cessna Skymaster, manufacturer unknown:

 

 

Airfix Cherokee Arrow:

 

 

Eidai Areo Subaru:

 

 

And here's a group shot of all of them together:

 

 

Here's a couple of airships for you...

 

The venerable Revell Goodyear Blimp with working lights:

 

 

and the monster of them all, the 1/285th scale Haw3k Graf Zeppelin:

 

 

 

 

 

I also have a number of ships for you....

 

Revell's Esso Glascow Tanker:

 

 

Revell's Hawaiian Pilot Freighter:

 

 

How about Jacque's Cousteau's Calypso:

 

 

Another Revell ship, the Titanic:

 

 

Next is Glencoe Models NS Savanna:

 

 

Now for another freighter, the IMEX Trinidad:

 

 

Another IMEX ship, the NedLloyd Rouen:

 

 

From IMEX again, the MS Toyama, a container ship sans containers:

 

 

And another IMEX ship, the MS Tampa a container ship WITH containers!

 

 

This is a little Japanese freighter put out by Hasegawa, the Hikara Maru:

 

 

Oh, here's a couple more passenger ships I've found...

 

The Airfix Canberra:

 

 

and the Queen Mary:

 

 

And just for fun, here's a commercial vessel my mother-in-law used to take up the river to market every weekend:

 

 

 

 

After all that, the only cars and trucks I have so far are these....

 

This is a Ford Model T I built for someone as a gift:

 

 

I have two more in the stash to build. I'll have to get on those.

 

 

And finally, my automotive Magnum Opus, a 1/12th scale of the 1911 Christie Fire Truck:

 

 

 

 

Well, that's all my commercial vehicles I have so far. Now let's see all of yours!

Way cool stuff here. Love the Christie!

What a great variety Duke! You seem to have a real knack for ships as well as your armor.

Thanks Guys! Bob, I love that Christie too, I'd been wanting one ever since I was a kid and finally got it in San Diego at their model contest! It scared the crap outta me when I first opened the box, but I dove right in. It's such an awesome kit!

 

Gil, I do only build my ships OOB, so no fancy rigging or P/E, (although I did rig a couple) but I like how these turned out. I have one more IMEX ship to build, the Bahrain, and then I'll have finished the entire range of IMEX ships. I also picked up the Lindbergh kit of the Presidential liner that I want to start soon too.

 

Thanks again for the great replies guys!
