3 x English Electric Canberra...
1 x Bristol Beaufighter for the Med GB...
1 x Supermarine Spitfire for the D-Day GB...
1 x Hawker Typhoon also for the D-Day GB, decals and propeller do be fixed...
1 x Messerschmitt Bf 110G-2, decals etc...
1 x BOAC Mosquito, decals etc...
1 x '64 Dodge 330 RAMCHARGERS.....

This is just off my head....
 
Both kits are really nice. Karaś looks really great when done with all PE and rasin parts. Łoś as well.But the front glass of the nose has been divided into two parts.This can cause a trouble as the gluing of both halves has to be very clean and made with a glue that gives a transparent join.
 
Oh geeze, I've fallen into a bit of a pit where I've started stuff, and just left them alone, unfinished on the shelf.

1/32
Fw 190A-8 (almost done, should be finished today)
Ju 88A (ready for painting, kind of? )
Ju 87 (how bad is this, I don't even remember the version it's been so long... Was for the MTO build but I don't like how the painting turned out. Just about ready for decals, has been for almost a year!)

1/48
Bf 109E-4 (for the BoB GB)
Henschel Hs 129 (ready for paint)
Panavia Tornado (partially painted)

1/350
USS Franklin (painted, fiddly bit time, and when 40% of a model is fiddly bits, makes it difficult)
 
Yes indeed! Need to get the -37 done and get a -23!

I'm dying for a 1/48 -23 as well! I would like to get the -45 -30!

------------------------------------------------------

I guess I'm not trying hard enough,

1/72 TB-3 Bomber (from Heavies GB)
1/32 Bf 110 (from BOB GB).

Recently discovered at my parents house:
1/72 Space Shuttle from Revell that I started 27 years ago. Nose is painted black and I completed the cockpit.
1/144 U-47 Cutaway Sub started around the same time - some painting done

I think maybe we need to start a 'Finishing Unfinished Models' section!

EDIT: Terry's post below about a B-17 that's too big to finish reminded me of one more:
B-24D 1/48th scale. Also too big to finish

That makes 15!
