Went and picked up a rather large parcel from the post office this morning from japan, been promising myself a big floaty thing for ages so even after paying vat and fees ive saved about 80 quid :smiling3: that will cover some brass bits. Cant wait to get started on one of them but patience will be needed as the p51 gb is almost apon us.[ATTACH=CONFIG]n1183382[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]n1183383[/ATTACH]

That's definitely worth £3!!!! As for books they might have to wait. I have far too much on my new bookcase and it's filling up fast.....

[Jim R]

Well Mark, those two are going to take a lot of time and a lot of shelf space. I look forward to see the builds.

Another of my 'most wanted' list crossed off - a Sunday DPD delivery - only ordered Saturday morning!

On sale at a well known Scottish Modelshop - at very good price.
I attempted to make this about ten years ago & made a complete hash of the metallic paint. I've been waiting to pick another up at the right price! Not sure about the 3D puzzle diorama & the paints, but the brushes & glue will always be useful!

Oh I don't know Dave.....
.... I reckon the 3d puzzle Dio could be good fun,and rather novel

[Tim Marlow]

Good catch from your point of view Dave. Interesting vehicle. Weird red cone effect behind the driver though, looks like something the pet shop boys would wear :tongue-out3:

[Geoffers]

A recent eBay “win” arrived today.



I got it for less than the usual price for a Airfix Lanc plus it has the decals for Eric Locks Spitfire which I have wanted for ages.
No stand or paint, glue etc but I didn’t want them anyway :smiling4:

Geoff.

My purchases from the Stoke show today.

That Flakvierling crew is showing it's age but the halftrack still builds up nice enough, hoping it gets the same treatment as the Ketten did.

[Ian M]

I quite fancy the half track Rick.

[Tim Marlow]

Me too. I have one in the stash, given to me by my brother in law when I restarted the hobby. He’d had it barely started since he was a kid…..

[The Smythe Meister]

Well,I`ve always liked these things for some reason,
They weren`t very good in their initial "Daytime Fighter" role,so were taken off those duties and turned "Nightfightery"...... which they did,a bit better at:thumb2:.
I`m selling my 1/72nd kit,(Which is still available if anyone`s interested!),as i much prefer 1/48 scale for a bit of an easier assembly,so grabbed this off Ebay for £20 including delivery.

Cheers,
Andy
