Let's see...
What did I finish in 2009?
First there was the halftrackcampaign;
Then there was the Airbornecampaign;
I did a Sd.Kfz. 250/6 conversion too;
Then I did the Market Garden-dio;
Then there was the "Blitz II-Africa"-campaign;
And off course the "Get the job done"-campaign;
I did a figurecampaign, too. The sniper-campaign;
And as the icing on the cake, I did my Patton&Panther;
Looking back, it was a very productive and fun buildyear!!

I was a slow starter and didn't really do anything until August, here's my finished builds since then . . . .
Tamiya 1/48th F-84G Thunderjet for Aluminium Campaign
Revell/Monogram 1/48 P-47 Razorback for Chequerboard Campaign
Monogram 1/48 P-47 for Cave Tonitrum Campaign
Hasegawa 1/48 Fiat G50 for Made in Italy Campaign
I have seen some stunning builds in 2009, and 2010 promises to be even better.
Cheers all, Damian

Well it seems that it may be more than I thought. Some haven't been photographed in their finished state too - I noticed as I was rummaging through my photos.
Anyway in no particular order:
1/32 scale Revell P51 and Trumpeter P40B each representing 3 Sq RAAF aircraft. P51 started and finished this year. P40 in Get the Job Done Again campaign.
AM Avenger OOB - another Get the Job Done Again entry.
Revell 1/32 started and finished this year.
Tamiya 1/35 - yet another Get the Job Done Again entry.
Those that didn't make the photo gallery:
Academy 1/35 Stuart "Honey" - finished early this year - can't remember when started
Monogram 1/48 Hawker Typhoon tankbuster. - started and finished this year
A couple of figure kits 1/35 scale for dios I intend to do incorporating the above armour.
Nearly finished the Trumpeter 1/16 T34/76 and 1/16 Trumpeter Soviet tank crew figure to go with it.
BUT I seem to have "obtained" more kits than I have completed - (yet again!!!! )

All nice looking models,
I hate to say it, but I honestly don't believe I actually finished anything I started in 2009.
Hopefully 2010 will be a little more productive year for me.

Nice photos, more pics of Sophie please.....lol. But seriously, who makes that kit of her and where did you get it? SWMBO said you did an exellent job on the blending of the skin tones, I concur.

Sorry, been away and only just saw your question. Sophie is a resin kit made by Pegaso in their Fantasy series. I just did it for something different.
And would you believe someone reported the pic to "photobucket" recently so that they deleted it for breaching their terms of use?! So i put it back and re-linked it.

I built nothing in 2009. Didn't even glue the pieces back on to the kits that I built in 2008 that the cleaning lady broke off. But looks like a lot of guys did some great work. I'm making up for that now.

Really wow! There's a LOT of fine stuff posted on this thread! My hat is off to all. Some a you guys are "over-achievers" and certes over-producers.
Old codges like me stand no chance at all at all! I returned to modelling in 2009 after about 35 years of other stuff. It was a wake-up call to see what-all folks have done and where the hobby is today. Model clubs, kits, approaches to them, PE, etc. all different from "back when".
Here's my little bit for 2009. I'm old-school and slow. And I certes ain't any sort of competition to about 99% a the folks posting! But it IS fun!
Mirage's UE with Wurfkorper
Trumpeter German E-10 w/ a few mods
MasterBox Tk 1A with mods, Poland campaign 1939

Excellent models everyone! I started three models last year but have not finished either one of them. I've slowed down quite a bit in recent years but planning on finishing at least one this year.
