Very quick service from Eduard, less than 4 days from the Czech Republic

Very quick Dave - was that through normal post or courier?

Mail Man drop off a couple more classic Monogram birds. Hands down to me the Spitfire has to be the best looking box art of any Model Aircraft I’ve seen

Through 'normal' post - Eduard used Dutch Post, then Royal Mail completed the journey ( don't ask me how it got from Czech Republic to NL )

First one that came up. You can get brandless stuff but Tetrosyl is a name I know.

You used to be able to get it in Halfords too, but I think they only have small, overpriced bottles now.

Sorry for taking the thread off track!

Thats what I use for liquid cement andy , and cleaning the airbrush occasionally too , i got mine from motor world at Intake , about £12 for 5 litres last time I got one .

Postie delivered these today - two plain white boxes from Eduard
[ATTACH=CONFIG]n1125202[/ATTACH]
Both contain the same thing - Eduard Overtrees. For those of you not familiar with overtrees, they are just the plastic sprues for a model, no PE, no decals, no instructions.
I've been after a 1/48 Lysander for a while, retail boxings are going for £25+, and becoming hard to find so, when I got the chance, I bought two sets!

The sprues are originally by Gavia ( 2001 ), and have been used by Eduard for quite a few years. Eduard seem to have discontinued the retail boxes ( at the moment ). Since these were originally by Gavia, I have sourced two sets of PART PE made for this boxing at roughly half the price of the Eduard frets. Now all I need is some decals! ( Instructions downloaded from the Eduard website ) .

Lovely , please say you're going to do one of them in the Special ops green grey with black underneath scheme dave ? That is of course if you can get the decals

Interesting, and a whole lot cheaper than TET! Guess what I'll be testing out later :smiling5:

Since I have two, I think the special ops version will be a certainty _ I seem to think they had dull red squadron letters, but very little other markings, so my extensive decal files may already have them ( OK, it's a shoe box! )

A few little goodies from Hannants today. I have a couple of Fw190 builds planned (surprise surprise) so got some masks and PE for them. Also got some Me262 seatbelts for the upcoming 'JV44 Hunters & Protector' build.

Great idea Dave, might get me some too.
Have the recent limited just arrived from eastern Germany and a good way to use the extra decals :thumb2:

Some things I wanted and had them in two working days delivered, guess DHL wasn’t busy in the fatherland:smiling4::

I was torn between a second Lysander or a Tempest V, but the Lysander won out ( the p & p is quite high, so ordering a single model isn't logical! ). You have to be quick with the overtrees , as they come & go quickly.....................

It's your fault Dave :flushed: - ordered Lysander, Tempest Mk V & Typhoon Mk1 Bubbletop. :thumb2:

Thanks and true, read your mind and just ordered a couple too with some of the etch for them:thumb2:
Saw your remark for the PostNL carrier and indeed funny to see them included to the list.
Had it when ordering from Ammo directly too as one can choose from Swisspost too, must sort of a deal with the carrier:thinking:

OOOOH, why am I not on commission?!!!!! :tongue-out3:
