discussion What to get for my birthday

[Guest]

Hi all its ages away yet October, but my missus wants to know, I have a budget of 100 quid, I have no idea other than I don't do planes as I'm rubbish at them, I will have a go at anything, I would like to try something different, but I won't do small as my eyesight isn't up to it, come on give me some ideas.

as you are doing a great job with large cars at the moment what about the revell e type 1/8.


your lucky when I suggest to the missus that she could get me more models for birthdays or Christmas all I get is a look that could kill!!!

Does it have to be a model? Why not some modelling equipment - a spray booth or those fancy storage units that Barry has got?

Rick you have no idea how lucky I am, my missus thinks models are the gift the accessory are just like the tools to do the job. She doesn't mind me buying that stuff, as I've explained to her I can't build the models without them, so she thinks she's wasted her money if I can't build the kit (which of course if I want something I just say well i can't start that kit as I don't have so and so, as if I wouldn't dream of wasting money on it, and generally she will say well get it you idiot) you just have to know how to flutter the eyelashes and learn the sad eye thing.

Do you know what I would love to see you do Ken? A 1/16 three wheeled Morgan.

Do they even do one mate.

They do, have seen them ranging from £40 to around £80. But I found this beauty: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gakken-Morgan-1935-1-16-scale-model-kit-NIB-/182226325509?hash=item2a6d891005:g:5RMAAOSwH3NXnjUQ No idea of quality but at that price for 1/16 get it and store in the stash.
