[Gary G]

These arrived today. Cheap enough so worth a try.

Worth a try if it means I can use my a-mig and Vallejo's up with out that constant tip cleaning fiasco. Then I can move over to the new AK 3rd gen .
Thanks to Andrew for the suggestion.

I am awaiting the results with baited breath and not a little trepidation!:cold-sweat:

I'll jump in. My bumper family LED compendium party pack. There's a soldering iron and some battery packs somewhere as well.

I saw this on eBay and had to buy it. It could be as old as 1986 around the time Airwolf was on tv
Looks quite a simple model to build although that can often be deceiving .
Brand Ive never heard of AMT, ERTL, made in Mexico..
The box smells old like it’s been stashed in an old seller for 35 years

So to go along with the Precision I&S, Panther G i bought and the King Tiger (some time ago now). Obviously to make the type of Ardennes diorama i would like, i need figures too. So here we have the (old) Tamiya German Assault Infantry and some static grasses.

Just need to try and paint figures now.

 

[CarolsHusband]

Bought this for a future project that has been simmering away in the back of my head for over a year now.

It'll probably stay there for a while yet but it's always good to have a plan.

 

[peterairfix]

One I have always wanted to have a go at as I used to put food on these at Exeter Airport in the late 90s

 

[papa 695]

Just got this delivered

 

[Tim Marlow]

Just bought these.....not great. Packaging was inadequate, just a poly bag. I’m now in conversation with the supplier.......
At least the sprues are fine....good looking stumpy vikings...

 

[BattleshipBob]

Just arrived



One side effect of the joys of ME i have is a painful wrist. Used my normal Iwata airbrush last weekend and had a problem with wrist and fingers, very painful, so invested in a new pistol grip Iwata TRN 1, not cheap but no lube!

Feels very comfortable so hopefully can use without pain killers!

 

[Jim R]

Bob - I'll be very interested to hear your views on that pistol grip AB. No rush but when you've had a chance to give it a good outing or two.

[AlanG]

Well after a little discussion on @John Race 's thread and in PM. I took the plunge and bought three Asparagus Fern plants and some Glycerine. I can see some pine tree building for my Ardennes diorama going to be taking place in the very near future

 

[Bobby Conkers]

From the shop - ordered Thursday 3pm, delivered Saturday 8am. Cheaper than Amazon and I even forgot my discount.

Got this one a week ago and a most excellent piece of kit:nerd:
Superb for the dropper type like Vallejo and even the Gunze jars and the big VJ 200ml bottles can be properly mixed by it:tongue-out3:

Got it on Evilbay from a Chinese seller dispatched via Belgium, usually it’s the other way round:smiling5:

 

[AlanG]

That's the same one Luke APS (Geek Gaming) on YT reviewed.

An Italeri M110 for conversion to an M578 armoured recovery vehicle, for a group build on another forum, plus some paint (Italeri earth red for this one, and two bottles of Gunze olive drab, a colour I’ve been using a fair amount of lately, and this is probably the best brand I’ve found for spraying and “right” colour
