    Flick the switch.....push the button

    Hi all ,desperate to get back at it done nothing since the thumb incident ,thumb good apart from a lump about the size of half a pea right where you need to hold part between finger and thumb.
    Trouble is I think a good job but am struggling to find something to flick the switch, I've loads in the don't know why I bought it even because I've no intention of building it(the stash).
    So if i may id like to run a few past you all ,first up built this pre thumb ,these little kits are fantastic im sure some primer would get the ball rolling.

    Limited run moulding but seems nice and sharp ,looks to be more etch than plastic parts not that the etch holds any fears seems more one for the dark winter nights.
    Then there's this ,when I started modeling again I always fancied the 35th one (dragon?) This is nice and crisp well detailed i think produced by IBG

ID:	1160347yep I'm well aware that one is a 35er (no fear)but I have question for thoes in the know would the Russians have left the Stuart olive drab or slapped some 4bo on it ,the other candidate the ba has a panzer gray call out ,taken away for a proper spray job or slashed on in a barn or somewhere hopefully both will make for a interesting paint job ,I think the last two will be the way to go.
    I also have a new young apprentice blind in his left eye ,might have to be the ba as although small there is no way he's going to sleep in a 72nd box lidClick image for larger version
