    Maho transfers her Panther ausf A to Oorai

    Classic Tamiya kit, brilliant outcome, remarkable level of detail when Tamiya-san led the world in model kits design and production. My example (once again) is from anime series 'Girls und Panzer'. Only this one is a 'what if', Oorai GC don't own a Panther, but, Maho Nishizumi sister of Miho...

    First model in 35 years

    Very tidy, after such a long abstinence clearly you have a 'knack' for model building Miko (partial theoretical modeler)

    Latest Acquisitions (2026)

    So, I was in town today doing a few errands, on my walk home I pass the last of what was a dozen or so shops that sold model kits in my area, as it came into view i said to myself, ''don't go in there, you've got everything you need, more than you'll ever need, the last thing you want is even...

    JASDF Typhoon F-4

    I'm a bit of a Japanophile, the GCAP consortium including Japan along with Italy and UK seems a plausible 'whatif' and. . . I have a number of JASDF kits with lots of spare decals!! , this isn't my first RAF to JASDF crossover, there's a two tone blue JASDF Buccaneer in here somewhere? Miko...

    Westland Wessex HU.5 - 771 Naval Air Squadron (Royal Navy) - Italeri 1:48

    'Very' nice! Certainly looks the part more than my version of 771 machine out of the Matchbox kit Can I ask which blue you used? Miko (I do like a nice chopper! oo'er missus!)

    May go dark for a little while

    Brilliant! an NHS success story! good you're back in the swing of things, time to frotter the stash!! Miko (Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. We have the capability to make the world's first bionic man. Tim Marlow will be that man. Better than he was before. Better...

    1/12 YAMAHA YZR-M1’09(50th livery), by TAMIYA

    Amazed by the detail! Very nicely done! Miko (my sole bike kit has been in the stash for years awaiting it's turn to appear on the work bench)

    At what point is your "stash" getting out of hand?

    Only six? I'm not sure whether to congratulate or commiserate? Ha! Miko (affording is is subjective in my case! Ha!)

    At what point is your "stash" getting out of hand?

    Yep, carefully opening the packaging to release the kit is indeed a treat! Miko (recently I have the habit of not remembering what has just turned up at my home, only remembering once opened, dementia or reckless spending? somewhere between!)

    At what point is your "stash" getting out of hand?

    We sure do have collectors syndrome holding more kits than we would ever build, it just feels good to buy stuff, when it turns up in the post or bring it home from the model shop, this brings about a squirt of endorphins in the brain causing a sense of elation! . . . and then it goes into the...

    'Panther!' GuP, naturally!

    A little more progress, this thing is a charm to build, despite my eyesight struggling with the fiddly bits! Miko (note crew member awaiting completion and delivery)

    Joe's Academy 1/72 F-16C Thunderbirds

    Looks like a ghost F-16! Coming along nicely!! Miko (haven't built an F-16 . . . ever!)

    'Panther!' GuP, naturally!

    This thing goes together super well as Paul suggested! it is a classic, decades old but for me, plenty of detail and sure looks like what it's supposed to be I found that an acrylic paint pen works well for the rubber tyres! So much simpler than using a brush! Miko

    'Panther!' GuP, naturally!

    YaYY !! I hope so!! Well, I made a booboo! The GuP Panthers are ausf G not the A I have!! Sooo a 'what if' GuP panzer? Miko (stretching it a bit)

    Hey look, I'm building a tank! This is my first German tank since? . . . oooh . . . erm?? . . . . . . ever! It'll look like this when complete! Miko (Panzer Vor!)

    Recommend me a Sherman 1:35 scale

    This one, the original M4 goes together really well, it has optional parts and a great price too Miko (this is mine here)

    Stashes and insurance.

    I never really considered separate insurance for my stash, I best contact Lloyds of London, my stash has a like for like replacement policy to the value of the GDP of a small country!! Ha! Miko (totally invested in this hobby. . . most of the time. . . well, some of the time. . . occasionally!)

    Fuji T4 export version

    Thanks! Yep, a BAe Hawk T3 isn't beyond the realms of possibility, or a new design from scratch with a shoulder wing which is far more common that the Hawk lower placed wing, Maybe an aerodynamicist will turn up and explain the advantages of both designs Miko (chairodynamicist! Ha!)
