OOOOOOOoooooo....Origami plants.....Okaaaaaay! Don't think those will survive the Russian winter JR.:rolling:
Should be fun to try your hand at something a little different:thumb2: Rick H.

No Rick they wouldn't :smiling3: .Just have to find the right moment to use them.

Certainly won't survive JR's obsession with flames :smiling3:

:nerd::smiling3: The Burning Bush !

For those of you who would like to see the paper cutouts I had from Mike.

One more and then I’m done buying stuff for the foreseeable future:

The Chi-He tracks are for the Chi-Nu that I got a barrel for yesterday, the AMX ones for a Takom AMX-13 I bought years ago to build as a Royal Netherlands Army one, but which comes with the wrong type. Since I was ordering tracks for the Chi-Nu, I thought I might as well add these. I’ve never used metal tracks before, but they’re about the only viable option for either, so I kind of have to give them a go

Also:

These are periscope covers for Shermans, of an uncommon style that most kits don’t include but which I needed for accuracy. A friend of mine bought a 3D resin printer a while back, and after making my own covers from plastic strip proved to be far more difficult than expected, I asked him to make me some. He dropped them off yesterday evening, so I’ll finally be able to finish the Walcheren Sherman I’ve had on hold for too long now. (For an idea of the size: the tile they’re on is 50 mm on a side.)

Picked up this very rare item on evilbay. Decades old resin kit of very high quality. Very little cleanup & excellent fit so far. Always wanted another makers' LVT4 for my Rhine crossing dio.

[Guest]

I can’t read the instructions in the photo, but does it come with two different cab roof/front pieces? Because the one you can see in the box is too late a style for LVT (4)s in Europe, AFAIK, but the instructions also show the earlier type without a machine gun, that would be correct.

Post room today received this.
Now looking fwd to reading, should be a good reference for dios .

I was hoping to get this started by the end of June. Maybe later.

Another floaty thing, launched by postie ( late delivery! )

A really oddball scale! - more like the Revell fit-the-box era.
Seen this at high prices, but I was happy to give just over £11 delivered!. There is another version of the Batory, as an attack Troopship, but that's not very common
