My Night Fighter Collection Thus Far

Night fighters have always fascinated me due to the unique cat and mouse games played by the hunters and their prey. Here are pictures of eight such planes in my collection. One is a Model Power entry, another is a repainted IXO, a third is a Dragon repaint, and the remainder are plastic items, made from kits and/or my own special solid resin castings. The latter are displayed without props---you are supposed to imagine them as in flight, with the props spinning.

Very nice collection. I'm sure I'm speaking for a lot of us, but in general, I'd love to see more night fighters offered up.
 

Anything for a weird life.

Re: My Night Fighter Collection Thus Far

Nice group, but I am a little partial to the P-61 Black Widow. I hope to add one to my collection.

Nice collection of night fighters you have there...
I wish they make that P-61 in 1:72....
