Paddleboat mega RT from the Betterleys. Highly detailed, but will take you 1-2 days to complete because of all the tiny parts you have to paint
Rooster pin cushion and thread spool stand, RT from Dorothy Hansen. I got this as a gift from Molly Cromwell (the kit). I was nervous about painting, but it was easier than expected and Dorothy's instructions are very easy to follow with targeted pictures.
I need to re-take this picture. RT from Kensinger. The owls are already painted for you, so all you have to do is paint or stain the shelf. I was done in 2 minutes. This is QS! She hand cut and handpainted all these kits.
Lisa Engler mega RT from Tucson in 2013, which I finally got around to making. Lisa makes beautiful and well designed kits that require minimal painting (yay!) and everything is laser cut beautifully. She uses cherry instead of basswood.

This needs some beer, a DVD player, Wii console, DVDs, and speakers
