Latest acquisitions

[Guest]

Just had to post these two up, I managed to do another swap with someone on FB, and managed to bag these two, the D9R came with a Big ed set, this kit is amazing as is the AMX, I`m over the moon with this trade, so much so, that I`ve already managed to bag myself another one

Cheers Ade, I can`t get over the quality of these kits, and the amount of plastic, the D9R is huge definitely looking forward to getting stuck into these

More part's for the continuation of my 1\250 Titanic restoration my first ever eBay auction win and a small kit that i couldn't resist

[Guest]

Went to local Model Train Shop this morning to get some chopped bark to create some rubble. Never used this before so it will be fun having a play.






Of course, I didn't want any kits but I thought I would see what they had and this caught my eye..... Sadly, it does not come with the figures but I am sure I have seen a set like it somewhere.






Also arrived in the post this morning from SK Miniatures, the Alpine GI figures I was after.


You get two heads per figure, identical apart from plain or net covered helmet. They do look nicely sculpted but painting them...... I don't know. I have been trying out a few techniques all week and watching YouTube videos but I still struggle to get them anywhere decent. I have to crack this though as it is seriously impeding my diorama options.






















You probably cannot see it in the pic below as I cannot focus close enough but this chap has a cigarette hanging out the corner of his mouth as per the box art

Ah the joys of having a local shop Graham! I'm restricted to Hobbycraft


You could look out for the Dragon 'Auctung Jabo' figure set for your Flak/Bergepanther although it doesn't have any seated crew figures.


Or the Tamiya set that goes with their halftrack 20mm quad. They have winter clothes on, so maybe a snowy scene?

Not a model kit as such but picked this up today

[monica]

the Alpine GI figures

do like the look of these,s, Graham,very nicely detailed,

[Guest]

Not my normal choice of model but for £47 the lot it came away with me.










So i got this one to go with them, but it was shop price.

Hi everyone great day out at Cosford today and a few additions to the stash acquired.

[spanner570]

Being mainly boats and ships, my haul might not be of much interest....


I've been searching for the 1/144 Atlantic Version U. Boat for some time. Likewise the Attack Transport ship.


I also wanted a cheap Japanese war plane as I'm planning a Kamikaze Dio.


Probably the best find of the day was the three U.S Marine figures in 1/48.(bottom right) I was beginning to despair of ever finding any for my Swift boat diorama, but I spotted these.


All at bargain prices....






Cheers,


Ron
