Latest acquisitions

[Ian M]

Yes another one. Been looking for the paint for it. Looks like I am going to have to go enamels on this one... Xtracolor has them, DOA make a set with Caunter colours as well. If not I will have to see what I can find in the Humbrol draw... I have a feeling this will not be the Last valentine I buy either. It really is a nice kit, buy one, you won't be sorry Patrick.

I got home today to find this waiting for me.

I already have Caldwell and Muller's "The Luftwaffe Over Germany-Defence of the Reich" as well as various other tomes on this subject (by Boiten,Freeman etc) but this latest acquisistion is superb. So good that I've spent a couple of hours leafing through it instead of watching the Grand Prix on catch up

It is a day by day account of the defence of the Reich replete with maps,tables and pilot's accounts. It also contains some decent photographs though that's not why you'd buy it. It is also,importantly for a history,emminently readable. I can't reccommend it highly enough. If you are interested in the subject buy one now,it's the sort of book that will be going for hundreds of pounds on ebay in ten years time!

Nice postie left these for me today.

I was thinking about using them together in a future project but have recently had other thoughts.

Ooo Drew id love to see that Miniart be built and the steel chasis lav looks interesting. I am building a dragon steel chasis sturmtiger and the steel chasis is different but not all together unpleasent. Nice score.

[homechild]

I've been after the LAV for a while now, really don't want to put it in the stash but have too many builds already planned out.

The mini-art building may make an appearance in the second half of the year (in one of the GB's or SIG's, can't remember which one), I know how awkward they can be so am a bit nervous about it. We'll see how it goes...

I have a Miniart house kit on the way, It will be my 1st one but their site has a great SBS on constructing and painting so no worries there.

£55 for the P-40? That must be some kit!

My latest was an ebay steal, £15 for this Premium kit

[Vaughan]

The P-40 is not one of the cheapest kits but it was a birthday present so I'm not complaining.
