Hi Paul that Wiesel set looks great, was thinking of getting one myself, was going to put them on the back of my Faun transporter, nice looking kits mate

 

[PaulTRose]

put them on the back of my Faun transporter

now that would look really nice!.........but you first id have nowhere to put something that long....i did a 1/24 car transporter once with a big rig to pull it and 6 cars on the back.....only been altogether once cos its too big, stored away in a box

 

[Guest]

I've got the Faun transporter, and it's huge, got to get around to it some dayso many parts, every time I think about starting it, I just open the box up and look at all of those parts


That's why it's still in the box

My most recent acquisitions, I suppose technically the first two aren't really acquisitions as I haven't received them yet, however I can imagine myself opening them for a little drool over the contents. I intend using them in the current group build. I bought the Defiant as it was the first kit I ever recall building, I remember being fascinated by the mid turret at the time. I bought the Bristol just because. I also bought the Big Ed photo etch kit for the Defiant.View attachment 122834

Just got these with my birthday money. Lol I felt like a little schoolboy again going into the model shop with my birthday money in my sweaty little hand.


When I saw the Nashorn it looked so unusual I just had to have it. The Lightning is another of those models I bought as a youngster, as I recall I had more bits stuck to my fingers than on the plane. And it was either the artillery or a boat.View attachment 123162
