Lidl/Airfix kits...... I really wanted a gazelle but Im disappointed in the decal scheme as it's a civvie one but I'm sure I can find something suitable in the spares box to turn it into a RAF one

Only reason I got the comet is I'm pretty sure I've never done it

I like the retro box art

I need new kits like I need a hole in the head but the devil made me do it lol

Not exactly latest aquisitions as I rescued these from the attic as I was making space for other household items at the request of SWMBO.

be prepared to be blinded with a few piccies .....



no introductions needed on these as the boxes say it all.





I forgot I already had the Achilles ...... and have another being delivered tomorrow ..... that'll teach me to check before hitting the button .....



love the scammels





bit of a beast ....



as you can probably guess ..... I love these as well ....



not sure why I ordered this ..... but thats ok.



same with this ... but there must have been a reason at the time .....


and I also already have a couple of Tamiyas version of this ..... it will be good to compare the build and quality between the two.



and thats it for now.

cheers

Arrived this morning Iwata Eclipse HP-CS Gravity Feed Dual Action Airbrush ECL4500.

Can't beat Iwata.

Miko, sick and tired of using acylics and all the problems you get with them. So spashed out on a load of Tamiya XF and the air brush. Still have my Neo .

Me too! although my choices were out of nostalgia, I'm quite new to airbrushing after decades of Humbrol enamels, they used to be good thirty years ago, but now, my Chinese Iwata knock off along with Tamiya and MrColor paint has improved my modelling enormously!

I tried that one on missus Miko, she called an exorcist!!

I could do with a Gazelle for my 'raspberry ripple' stash

Miko (thinking about it, I might have one? Need to do a stash stocktake!)
