Some I've done in the late 70s through the 80s. Those kits long gone since.
A-7 Corsair II
A-4 Skyhawk - at least 3.... USS Indepence, USS Oriskany, and BlackSheep squadron of USMC
B-52 in 1/72 scale. The vintage one I did as a kid
B-26 Marauder
B-25 Mitchell
A-8 Crusader
A-1 Skyraider
F-105 Thunderchief
F-106 Delta Dart
Another F-4 Phantom cuz I need to do stencils decal hell again
I'm sure there are more I haven't thought of yet

That's quite the list. I remember building all of them in 1/72 scale.
I believe I still have a vintage Monogram 1/72 scale B-52 in the stash somewhere, possibly two. I do know I have another F-105 Thunderchief in 1/72 scale from Monogram as well, maybe even an F-106 too.
Yep, good times.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.
Believe or not, I really don't have a long list. I've gotten pretty much every aircraft that I want to build. There's a few, especially if someone makes a F11F Tiger. Oh and I'm waiting for ICM to do more Blackhawk/Seahawks.

Pretty much the same here. Though I did just order Fine Molds 1/48 Claude - been wanting that one and SprueBrothers has a sale on Meng & Fine Molds this weekend.

I thought those data stencil decals on the Monogram F-4 were the coolest thing back in the day. They "made the kit real" to me. Now I just think they look cool...
