Latest Acquisitions (2021)

[Guest]

Delivery van just dropped off a recent purchase from Resicast:

My next build is going to be a Sherman V with deep-wading gear, and Resicast is the only one I know who makes a set. It turned out they have a €40 minimum order, which that didn’t meet, so I decided to add the Churchill set as well because I also intend to make an AVRE equipped like that. Someday The set of four boxes is a nice surprise, thrown in for free.

All the way from China.................

Bit difficult to tell, but wooden decks for the Tamiya 1/700 HMS Nelson ( l ) & HMS King George V. I don't know how these will work out in such a small scale...................

I got this cheap off Ebay as I have taken a fancy to floaty things and I will use this model to test the water as they say.

If I don't like building ships then I have not wasted a lot of money.

Hi Dave
I built the sister ship to HMS Nelson, HMS Rodney. I used a wooden deck and it was fine. I'll look forward to both your ship builds.

Looks like sheets of leaves for dioramas, going by what’s visible in the oval window (?) in the packaging.

For me, the DHL man dropped off a package containing the kit that I need the Sherman deep-wading gear for:

[ATTACH]427185[/ATTACH]

Also a set of tracks for it, plus the SKP A30 Challenger because I noticed this pretty rare kit was in stock at the shop where I ordered it, and a metal barrel for the Chi-Nu I bought recently, mostly because for €3.75, why not?

The Sherman or the Challenger? From what I’ve read, I think I know which one you mean, but you never know

3.75 for that metal Barrel??!!!:dizzy:,Now THAT Sir is a REAL bargain!!

It is a cheap brand, by the looks of it
