Project: Aces

Introducing Project: Aces, my attempt to recreate in scale model form, the most famous heroes of the fictional Ace Combat Universe, I may later decide to create one or two others based on other fictional stories, but as of right now, it’s limited to AC.  The current project status is 0%.  Well, technically it’s like .005% complete since I’ve nearly finished the cockpit on one of the models that I have to make.  So, I assume that you’re wondering what models I will be making, so here’s the official list of planes slash squadrons, and what media they’re from.

"The Demon Lord of the Round Table, a warrior who soared through the Belkan War, inspiring both fear and admiration. His presence filled the skies for but a few short months before he disappeared. Apart from that, nothing is known about him. I was never able to find out what kind of a person he really was. But whenever they talked about him, they always had a slight smile on their faces. That, perhaps, may be my answer."
