      The detail inside the 486 pages is just sublime. Over 18 pages on painting eyes. Printed on thick glossy paper, with loads of SBS, examples and some of Krill's amazing work.

          Just a cheap thing off Ebay but I have tried it oon a couple of really fragile parts on the dump truck sprues and it does the job, just the thing to make my life a bit less stressful.

            Decals in both 1:35 and 1:72 scales, for vehicles used/left behind at Westkapelle in the Netherlands in November 1944, which, as you may know, is a special interest of mine

            These are complimentary from the manufacturer, as I helped put the sets together.

                  I was looking at the tool clamps the other day it will be interesting to see what you think of them.

                    So I now have every shade of Olive Drab that Mr Color make :smiling5: and something for the P-47 I'm building

                    [ATTACH]410123[/ATTACH]

                    Also this little set. With 9 figures and a Jeep, there should be something I can use for my refuelling scene.

                    [ATTACH]410124[/ATTACH]

                    A bit of an indulgence, but I've found my dirt cheap files so useful for cleaning up parts that I thought I'd invest in a decent one, which is even smaller and finer.

                    [ATTACH]410125[/ATTACH]

                    And from a rival shop, a top up of my most used sanding sticks & gloss, a few different strengths of decal softeners, and one of their washes to try out.

                      Good haul there Bob and Andy......
                      Nice to see SMS Konig Bob. The bell from her sister ship, SMS Grosser Kurfürst was found in a garden hedge in Eastleigh a few years ago! Konig is still at the bottom of Scapa Flow.....

                          I have been looking for one of these for a while now.
                          [ATTACH]410195[/ATTACH]
                          Well actually I was wanting the excavator model but no one in the UK had one and I could not be bothered to wait for a ship to come from Japan and the other day I was reading about the crusher model and found out there is a bucket in the kit. On looking in the box it seems that it is the excavator model kit, the only difference being an extra sprue in the box for the crusher part and a picture of the crusher model on the box top.

                          Andy.

                                Nothing Exciting, but going to be essential for my current project;

                                This has to be the best superglue i have used for resin, excellent bond, but be warned you dont have very long to get things positioned, bonds in less than 30 seconds !
