    Trip to closest model shop....40 mins drive away.....all i wanted was some paint and some weathering powders.....ended up having a spending frenzy and got this lot too!

    Bloodhound willbe for the missle GB......monkey bike simply cos i like them......T62 cos it was cheap!

    Just thought.....if i want the T62 looking realistic it will need to be a burnt out hulk with the turret a scale 20 metres away :smiling6: :smiling6: :smiling6:

      A fair weather cycling expedition that ended up being via the Sussex Model Centre who had received their delivery of the new Airfix Bf109 30 minutes earlier! Both kits look excellent mojo builds.Click image for larger version

        Hello, my name is Andreas and I am addicted to hoarding more model kits than I can ever build.

        This week I had to buy something from eBay again. An old Revell kit, a complete model and a resin conversion kit from Modelltrans and two magazines.

          Great haul!

          Given that we have the same name (language variations accepted) and we have the same addiction to hoard "...more model kits than I can ever build.", I can only assume there is some sort of connection between the two.... :smiling5: .....this is clearly worthy of much more study!!

                Stackable and a magnetic door. These are a part of my apartment refurbishing project this summer. Great boxes and come in @ €11.09 each. For the next item, I need to add a statement after it,

                            I discovered a new (to me) model shop about eight miles away. It’s called Mann’s Model Moments and is in the high street Wincanton. Well stocked for a relatively small shop, with a few second hand items as well. I have built much British armour over the years, so I came away with this…

                                Something to experiment with.......was in hobbycraft and found these reduced to 4 quid. ...they are face paints...this set is for 'multicultural activities' as it says on the box.....caught my eye as theres lots of shades of brown ....and to my eye look like those tamiya weathering sticks.....only bigger and a lot cheaper.....apparently quick drying and even water soluable.....even if theydont work for what i have in mind its only 4 quid!
