Hi, just wanted to share with you guys my model

1/72 Amodel Antonov An-22 Antheus "Cock"

The board seems dusty. Haven't had the time 2 clean it.

fuhh...not bad... the runaway can be detailed more accurately where did u get this cargo plane?

Yea, I know. But i just don't want to be too detailed on the runaway. That satisfied me enough.
I got the plane by ordering it online (http://www.hobbyterra.com/). This website is a great place to order huge Russian resin kits because besides being cheaper than other sites, huge models that cost more than 150US$ will not be charged with postage fees. So I got the plane for 159$ and free of postage fee. Unfortunately this model is now out of production. . But you can check it for other great aircrafts

ooo, u bought it online... no wonder la, it's a great gem of urs... rarely see people collects rare cargo planes....

Yea, truly it is. Cargo planes are my favorite types of aircraft. I am just waiting for some manufacturer to produce the Antonov An225 (The largest cargo plane) model kit next, in any scale. That would be really cool.

waa....that one if according to ur current scale sure damn big try collecting the boeing 377 super "guppy" then... i tot heavykits wanna produce the 1/72 225 Mriya cossack...

Yea, hmm, I think that I wanna add the Ilyushin IL-76 Candid to my collection, but the its gonna be costly. I also heard about that Heavykits was supposed to build the An-124 and An-225 in 1/72 scale. But it never happened. .Amodel also mentioned that they want to build the An-225 in 1/144 scale which is impressive enough. The Lockheed Martin C-5 Galaxy would also be impressive in 1/144 or 1/72 scale...
Btw I dont like the planes like the Boeing 377 or the Airbus Beluga, looks ugly, its cargo space is like a giant hump.

hahaha....got to agree with the ugly part but what to do...they transport 747's parts whut my dad have the C5 galaxy but made of wood will snap the pic of it if i have the time...oh and a SR-71 as well....

Yea, and the An-22 transports An-124's wings. Cool, Im sure that your dad's C-5 Galaxy is expensive. . I am be looking forward to see ur plane's pictures

How much u got that plane? looks pretty nice.

ok, these are some of mine, i collect die-cast cars n car modelkits too but these are some jets n planes... later will snap better pics when i'm back at my hometown..

tomcats, AH-64 apache, russian heli..can't remember the name , F-15 eagle, F-16 falcon, MiG-29

Wah, nice aircraft there

ala, normal one onli le... other guys more gempak one...

Mine? Oh, it costs 159US$ and free of postage just as I mentioned earlier

exactly! so lazy to google... yeap...i collect fighter aircrafts from WW2 models.....err, but i haven't got SU-27 n F-22 raptor yet.... but dassault rafale n panavia tornado got...

Your collection there is impressive enough . Keep up your good work in adding more to your collection . The only aircraft with stand I have is the Boeing 747 I got when I was 5. And I also collect die cast cars as well

my dad is a commercial aircraft collector...those brands like 1:600 schabak 1st gen mas n the 2nd gen mas whole box set... i blew my 1:250 747-400... was 8yrs old that time...

Its great to know that even your dad collects aircraft as well . Haha, I won't blame you for blowing up your 747. U were still little. Its just a coincidence that my 747 survived.

he place em in his office...so not much available at home thou... u got other pics of ur collection arr?

Huh, my collection? In my aircraft collection I merely have these only:

A not so properly built Academy 1/72 B-29 Superfortress(In real life the Antonov would be this big compared to the B-29):


The Boeing 747 that survived until today from when I was 5:



An unbuilt Italeri 1/48 C-130 Hercules (Only God knows when I'll start to build this, I dont even know when Im gonna have the time to start building it)
