I'm a little curious. At 400 pages, is this the longest thread in papermodelers.com history?

I think the thread "One model per (non-working) day is a bigger thread.

Yeah,although this definitely isn't a short thread!

Here's another one you ought to take a crack at, Aaron. No F-100C competition, and LOTS of markings (including the NASA bird) to choose from:
North American F-100C Super Sabre Photo Roster

Aaron, another gap in the model range may be the Curtis P-36. It wasn’t up to WWII standards, but nevertheless was a classy and trim little plane. Also in its favor for a model were multiple color schemes: both silver and olive drab for the USAAC, plus the blotchy white/green/orange camouflage for war games around 1937.The French operated P-36s, too, and those aircraft passed to Vichy France. These planes had typical French camouflage colors, with distinctive red and yellow stripes on the nose. (These Vichy P-36s went up against Wildcats/Martlets of the Royal Navy during the invasion of North Africa. It may have been the only time that American-built aircraft fought each other during the war – and it was ironic that US pilots were not involved.)

Hmm. quick search of the P-36 came up with about 3 million paint schemes. I might do this one next, after the Jap plane.

Ok Ok Ok the P-36 is cool but can you all guess this neat bird. ITS NOT A P-36 EITHER. I have a replica of one at a Museum up the road from me that flies and thought it was awsome as well as different

So many good suggestions, so little time to get to them. After I finish the Ki-2, I'm gonna let you guys pick the next model.

Here's the choices:

Curtiss P-36 Hawk

With the P-36, I plan on doing a repaint contest like with the T-28

North American P-64


North American F-100C


Convair 48 Charger


Lippisch Aerodyne


Rhein-Flugzeugbau Fantrainer


The one with the most votes by the time I (finally) finish the Ki-2 will get designed.

[McTschegsn]

I'd definitely go for the Lippisch Aerodyne!

[umtutsut]

Surprise, surprise...I'm in for the F-100C!
