    I think all the fantastic 1/32 wing thingy builders on here are to blame and of course a delivered price under €30 didn't help......Next,

    The last one on the wish list other than the 2 wing thingies that are no longer available and have stupid silly prices. Then,

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]n1148969[/ATTACH]
    Cheap at €16,80 delivered and I have both Borgwards in the stash to play with. Really finely made kit including the late tracks in resin. I would have to say the last one was an impulse buy due to Barry's current outstanding build and the great price I got it for. Just a tick over €34 delivered,

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]n1148970[/ATTACH]
    You get the parts to build the wheeled version included in the kit. You just need a set of resin tires to do it. I think I'm slowly (NOT) going wing thingy in my old age, but they are so cool.............And yes, I am also reducing the stash to make room for these new kits....................

    Prost

      Couple of gems ive been eyeing up for a while arrived today . Its the Arma hobby Hurricane mk1 trop and the Fokker EV . Beautiful looking kits , not overly complicated but superbly tooled and with some great decal options . The hurri will be done in the RAAF foliage green / earth brown scheme as it just looks so good ( plus it will sit nicely bext to my cac boomerang and vultee vengeance ) . The Fokker will be interesting with the big lozenge decals to contend with but im looking forward to it ( my kind of ww1 bird - no rigging ! :thumb2::smiling5 Click image for larger version

        Interesting kits Tony. The E V may not have rigging , but there will be control wires .....but perhaps not in 1/72....

          No Tim I have faith that he was a crafty fokker and all the control wires were hidden or completely invisible :smiling5:

                Looks to be the same as the Bulldog I built but with rubber tyres and lights.

                    Yes 2 kits, shan't use all of them.
                    Nice touch from Hannants they tell you if you've already had the item before, which I had.

                      Certainly is. I've added things to the basket many a times and a little 'reminder' pops up. Very useful indeed.

                          You know what will go well with them, I reckon - one of these ( Trumpeter 02322 - 1:3 5 Soviet Aerosan RF-8)

                            It is the next version Andy and I also have the street version which is too new for WWII, hence getting this one....

                              It's ATA pilot Maureen Dunlop and I had always hoped to sculpt something based on her, but Sang On Lee has beaten me to it in spectacular fashion!.
                              I don't often buy figures just for the painting as I mostly enjoy the modelmaking and converting, but this was just too good to pass up.
                              She will join my growing collection of WWII pilots in 1-32 scale.
                              It will be my first ever digital sculpt and my first attempt at painting a lady

                                Nice model Neil, I know her from that old magazine cover but didn't knew she was made into a figure :thumb2:
                                Would be great if you could share your progress when you'll get working on it
