Latest acquisitions

[Guest]

I got some neat stuff at the national competition here.


My favorites are these ancient Kovozavody Prostejov models.






Which I honestly just bought because they look neat.










And KP were one of the first Czechoslovak plastic model manufacturers.






And in the 90's the Czech republic became a real powerhouse of all types of kits and accessories.






This is a nice detail that stood out to me. These tips are all still good and valid today, but number 10 is sometimes forgotten even if it is one of the most important.






I'll probably not build these models. They withstood the test of time for this long, they can wait a little longer as a reminder of how far this hobby has gotten.

Hi All,


Picked this up at the weekend at my local model shop, They had bought a few old kits off a chap who found some in his loft which he had bought years ago. Out of all the kits they had i picked this...






it had been sealed by the previous owner so the model shop never bother to look inside.. I open to find this






The pea shooter kit complete and a Airfix tiger moth complete in the same box! Nice little suprise


Cheers,Ben

Well I plan to mash them both together to create "The Bus" as seen in Marvel Agents of S.H.E.I.L.D !


Here's some images to help those that have just said, what???

Ok .......... I gotta see this build

[takeslousyphotos]

Went into my local shop on the way home from work for some paint ........... Came out with one of these (Yes it's a stock photo scammed of the net).






Never built a Heller kit ............ So it might be rubbish. But for £ 13.00 it's a cheap punt. I'll find out when I start putting it together after I finish the Hyabusa.

Sounds like an opportunity to create a huge diorama, especially as many of your new kits are in a similar period

Did you drop on Sean's shop in Cove, he's a very naughty man for stocking model kits now!
