          Latest arrivals at Geoffers Towers 😀

          I had a bit of a stash clear out so had room for a couple of replacements.

          Both kits from the shop, great service as usual from John 👍

ID:	1261785 I’m not sure it was the Royal Navy’s last propeller fighter as the Hawker Sea Fury was in service longer, but it looks like a very nice kit.

          Latest acquisitions....
          Used a fair bit of black primer on my current SR71 build, so was running a bit low.
          Also saw a good looking mag on how to rust models, so bagged that, and the pilots in my SR-71 build are sometimes in orange suits, (as well as other colours) and I realised I do not have any orange. I did manage to cobble together a sort of orange/brown for the pilots, but bagged myself a tin of orange anyway.
          Also noticed I am a bit short on clamps, I have some, but not enough, so got a few more of those too.

                I had my beady eye on it for months Joe. Would have preferred the RAF boxing but there are two Lossiemouth based jets in the colour schemes for me to procrastinate over.
