Latest Acquisitions (2019)

[Si Benson]

Hi all

So a variety of things have arrived in the past week in a pre-Christmas influx. As always all absolutely essential, of course!! :tongue-out3::smiling5:

There will be no more kit arrivals for the foreseeable future, as I literally cannot get any more kits in the cupboard.

White ink gel pens for writing names on some vehicles - 0.3, 0.5 and 0.8mm in size. Early tests look promising, if needing a bit of practice! I have subsequently discovered some 2mm adhesive letters and so have ordered those too.

Three barrels for my PSC Stugs. Just for Bob

This was a freebie given to our model club at a recent show and they very kindly gave it it to Junior at the meeting on Monday night.

Now I'm doing more planes I decided to invest in one of these to make life easier and especially to protect my work for when I have to clear the modelling table as I have to do on a regular basis.

Next up are some barrels - one for Junior's AA Crusader and the other from his Daimler armoured car (the same as used on the Matilda from what I can see)

This is what the 20mm OERLIKON should look like once completed - I hope!

One can never have enough scenery for our little battles! This was bought from a small online supplier and was around 25% off RRP, not that they are easy to find for anywhere close to this once P&P is taken into account.

To compliment the 110 G-4 I bought recently, when I saw this at 25% less than RRP from the same supplier as the house I could not resist!

Indeed Si!

The 110 is lovely, very, very nice indeed. The pre-painted photo-etch is stunning. I would love to know how they do it. I just hope I can do it justice though. As this is very much a display kit I will getting some practice on the wargaming wingy things I have in the stash first.

I had a bit of luck on the stand front too. About the only UK stockist with any stock is one of our club members and so he brought it to the club night on Monday, meaning I saved on the P&P.

The only question I have is how will I get them into the house!?!?!? :tongue-out3:

Hi Bob the rubber bushes are great for pigments I've been using them for a while now and are very good.
