Stash?

Does this even qualify? It's one more than Laurie!

[ATTACH=CONFIG]n1135359[/ATTACH]

It's unusual that there is more than one. I've been delayed trying to source decals for the Classic Airframes kit or it would be built by now :smiling3:

Think Steve I forgot the noughts.

On stashes I have always kept them down to 4 perhaps 5.

But then I got it into my head that I had to produced dioramas. So get a diorama idea & get every kit pertaining to that diorama on day one.
Then nincompoop decides abandon Falklands diorama ( for the moment) & produce a Jersey Airport diorama. Here we go a big smile on Hannants faces.

So now 24 have appeared from no where.

But let us not, me that is, get despondent 82 in 2 weeks. Decided to live to 100 (reviewing the situation after that) that amounts to 1.3 models a year.
Thinks another diorama get the numbers up :tears-of-joy: :tongue-out3:

I'm embarrassed to show my stash that stack up six walls, the oldest from 1977 and the latest just a week ago most basically armour, figures, ships and planes. I have other genres like two pieces of Sci-Fi and one Gundam...Buck Rodgers fighter, SW Imperial Transporter and a Zaku.

I have two ships in a prolonged build nicknamed the USS Constipation and USS Misery...you can guess what they are. I try to finish whatever I open now.

Always fooling myself that I would someday build all of them. If my SWMBO stops buying designer handbags I will stop buying kits.

Allen, I carried that ZM Ho229 for a friend all the way from Volks hobby shop in Akihabara...I would only build a ZM kit if really want to go berserk with detail.

Cheers,
Richard

..Buck Rodgers fighter,

I would like to see that, did you know it was the original concept for the vipers in Battle Star Galactica?
(And there is a new Buck Rodgers film coming plus series.....)

Here’s much of my stash:

[ATTACH]401824[/ATTACH][ATTACH]401825[/ATTACH]

This is the same location, top and bottom of the same rack/pile. There’s a rack against the wall, but when that was full I ended up putting the rest on the floor in front of it. Of course, the rack is also full behind the stuff on the floor, but I didn’t feel like dragging it out of the way to show what’s there. The main highlight is a Trumpeter Faun SLT 56 Franziska with both Voyager etched sets for it. Bought it when it was new, not yet had the courage to start it …

This is just outside my hobby room. Inside, I have (among some more stuff) boxes of figures and accessories, plus assorted other junk, in a sideboard with the glass shutters removed:

More boxes of accessories in a drawer:

And bags of resin and metal figures, plus assorted other stuff, hanging from one of the roof beams by means of lengths of kite rod inserted into holes drilled into said beams:

I didn't know. Good thing they settled for a different design for the Vipers. I'll take a snap shot of it...the box is in quite a state and so are the decals.

Cheers,

Some of the ways that everyones stash is stored / piled / balanced is an impressive feat of engineering and ingeunity in itself!

We're all just really good at Tetris...........
(Pub I used to drink in had a Tetris machine that paid out, I used to go out with £2, 1 bottle of beer and then the jackpot....)

Seems more like jenga!

What happens if you need the box at the bottom? :smiling5::smiling5:

[Defiant911]

not a huge collection and rather random, what ever takes my fancy when I’m surfing the web.

Time to show your stashes....

I always keep mine relatively small at under 10 kits. 7 currently.
Three Trumpeter
Three Zoukie Mura
One Revell.

I am trying not to get into complex builds for a few months so that rules out starting the Zoukie Mura kits. Besides I am also awaiting MRP’s new IJA and IJN paints to use for the two Japanese subjects.

I have some great nose art for the two USAAF aircraft. I do like a nice colourful nude......

The Revell Spitfire will be the one to watch. I have some specific plans for this, correcting errors and depicting a specific Mk 1, so despite it being a simple basic kit my plans for it are not and I will be using more resin and doing more surgery on this kit than any other I have ever built. It will involve some very new territory for me. So that will be something of a complex build but I really want to get on with it, so will I be able to resist for the next six months or so?..... we will see....[ATTACH=CONFIG]n1135334[/ATTACH]

The Stuka is one on my list at some point.

Jakko,
I say again "you have more kits than my LHS" !!!!!! :smiling: :tongue-out3:

Hi Richard,

And a heavy box it was, huh? I want to to go berserk with the ZM kits when I retire next year as then I don't have to scratch all the missing details. The same with the WNWs kit. I just want to have the time to give these kits the love they need. I've also been stocking up on references to help me out with them.

Armor is still my first love and of course my V2 project. I do have to clear out a lot of things that I will never build in this lifetime though.....

Prost

I’m like Richard I’m embarrassed to show mine I could start my own Hobby Shop with just the Millitary stash alone. Let’s not go to the Model Railroad side of this. I may get you guys some eye candy later through
