What make is the etch folding tool please? Been looking to change mine as it only has a central lock down screw and i find that means anything being worked on left or right of centre is not gripped very well.
Autumn is here. Some retail therapy to fight off dark, cold and miserable-depression was called for.
Amusing Hobby 1/35 35A015 German E-100 Super Heavy Tank
This is my second E-100 in the stash and in a couple of weeks there's a new one released... Love these what if/paper tanks
Amusing Hobby 1/35 35A011 German Tank Destroyer Jagdpanther II
This one is also a what if/paper tank, but a realistic one to have been developed at some stage? Regardless, it's a German TD and thus it has to be bought!
Hobbyboss 1/35 82445 German VK4502 (P) Hintern
This one actually existed as Ferdinand Porsche"work in progress" prototypes. 3 of them to be exact. How accurate this model is to reality I don't know, but it's pretty close to the original concept drawings.
Basically it's an Elefant (Tiger (P)) chassis with a rear mounted "Porsche" turret. Krupp built the turrets for the VK.4502 but they were mounted instead on the first batch of Tiger II, a.k.a. King Tiger.
Fun prototype to sit with my German lineup.
I try to buy all of my models from one model store I support, but after discovering a couple Chinese shops on eBay it's hard not to press "buy now!" on all these models I never knew existed before!?
Time to place yet another paint order I guess... ops:
I was tempted by the big (22") version of the Eagle Transporter from Space:1999; but at £300 I didn't get it!
Nice haul there Dave I did consider that hobby boss M1070 myself.
Here's my purchases of the day.

I was tempted by a couple of those myself John, but I had to save some pennies for the Solihull show next week. I guess you'll be there as usual?
