Nice.... 
Went in my closest model shop purely to buy some paint for the ark royal but these followed me out
The leopard was on sale at under 20 quid so that was a bargain but then i saw the L-159and just had to have it when i saw the schemes on the back of the box........the 2 lower ones i see for real at least twice a week....im on the flight path out to sea where their playground is..sometimes as much as 5 times a week........owned Draken who provide an 'Adversary' service to RAF and USAF in the uk .....operate out of my local airport along with a few Dassault 20 Falcon....now reregistered as G DKNA and G DKNM

My haul from last weeks shopping spree some boot sale bargains some from hobbycraft
Nice haul, I've just found a hobbycraft near (ish) to me (in Maidstone), only went in for foam board and pva and did not realise they did also kits, they sometimes have some interesting ones in stock too.....
Just delivered, kit I've been coveting for years but refused to pay the exorbitant prices being asked.
Found on Ebay as a BIN delivered for just under £30.00 so I am well pleased.
Box is tatty but all contents sealed and perfect.

Inspector Morse springs to mind seeing the Jag.

Richard
Quite right Richard, his was maroon with a black vinyl top which I have never seen before.
I will be doing it Warwick Grey with a burgundy red interior to match my best friends 1:1 car to go alongside his E Type which I built earlier ( in scale form and in real life).
Nice haul Bob!
Some VERY nice hauls there chaps.
OK, some some recent arrivals over the past few weeks....some genuinely essential, some not and three sets a lot less than full price....

Have bought these to replace the old mini-jam jars I have been using for years for home made washes and other fluid storage. So much better.
These are for a special project I have planned....just waiting for a third set to land.
Who doesn't love a canopy mask!!
Decided to refresh the brush stash, in part so I can give some older but still good brushes away to a new modeller. The primer and strainer (for paint) were half price, thanks to a £10 gift voucher.
Have started using other colours of these and like them and had no metallic colours
A hobby store chain was doing '3 for the price of two' for a short period and so it would have been rude not to.....I have bought the Tempest again as I like the one I am working on and want to do the the other camo/marking scheme.
Got 20% off these thanks to a voucher. As above, the Tempest is so good I have bought this one for the above mentioned special project and also want to have another go at doing the Korean F-51. Also needed to pack out the order to get the discount, hence the jars.

as i remember he had the black top added after the roof got damaged........then had to have the car resprayed at the end when it got driven into by the villain
I have to confess to have never seeing one episode of Morse as I was living abroad when it started - moderators please don't ban me because of this abhorrent mistake!!!!!
Few bits....
Keep getting my paint jar lids stuck, very annoying, so saw that t here is a jar lid opener, very handy!
Few new paints.
A wire bender....saw it and had to have it, no idea what I'm gonna do with it (yet), Lol.
Couple more HobbyZone storage units, cos I keep filling them up with "stuff"!

Prolly could'a used the bender when I did the chemical plant. Don't recall what I did use to bend all the pipe.
Lol....i didnt start watching til about 2 years ago.....and that was after i watched Lewis the spin off
The jar opener is a real “must have” if you use Tamiya or any other paint in little jars 
Great haul there Andrew 
Todays package from our very own SMS, cheers John...
New Paint (Luftwaffe set), new brush and two more new HobbyZone storage units.
