After a full day dealing with airbrushing, applying chalks and pigments, I combined the two. "Would you like margaritas with your pigments?" Yes please. Margaritas! Now I am truly jealous! The bars here in Germany have been closed for months now, and no end of the lockdown in sight Feeling so blue... - dutik Panzerwomble and mpk 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpk Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 We are lucky in Australia, or rather, here in New South Wales. As far as I can tell, our state government has reacted swiftly when faced with an outbreak. Very quickly they enforce a lock down. One can be charged if when riding public transport without a mask. Only one lock down has affected ma person I know, when a gig had to be cancelled due to an outbreak on the northen beaches. That outbreak has since been quashed. I was shocked to learn recently that there was no plan since Covid began in America. Having come to know many doctors and nurses, my heart went out to those in America. A dear friend in London has much to say about Britain's problems. Wishing you dutik, and everyone else here my sincere best wishes.

Neo Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 This one is a kit i never thought i would be getting. but landed on a sweet deal and could not resist, (although Canadian customs decided the deal was too good and sprinkled love tax love) Trumperter 1/32 F-14D with some Aires goodies. the only thing im considering adding are the Zactomodel Blatter's, i would love the intakes but that's just too much $ for me Saying its a big box is an understatement! but the good new is i dry fitted the main fuselage in my display case and im pretty sure it will fit in the wing folded position Uncarina, Rick Griewski, dutik and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_K2 Posted February 13, 2021 Author Share Posted February 13, 2021 In my ongoing attempt to replace my paperback Squadron books with their hardbound equivalents, I recently made a good deal for this book. The real irony here, is that I had just bough this exact same book several weeks ago, during a Squadron book blowout sale, prior to their doors closing. My roommate got the paperback version.

I actually have SOL's complete resin M4A3E8 kit; it looks really nice. Also, was lucky enough to see the real Fury - as well as Tiger 134 - at Bovington. Incredible museum. dodgem37, LSP_K2 and Uncarina 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodgem37 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 'Nice stuff there, Mark, real nice.' Thank you, Kevin. 'That movie gave me shingles and haemorrhoids.' I will be sure to not put you through the same. 'So which 1/16th kit are you going to convert?' Tamiya 1/16 M4 Howitzer. 'I actually have SOL's complete resin M4A3E8 kit; it looks really nice.' Covetingly so. If I hadn't gotten such a bargain with the Tamiya kit, ($100.00 on eBay. Yes, one can occasionally find a bargain) I would have gotten theirs. 'Also, was lucky enough to see the real Fury - as well as Tiger 134 - at Bovington. Incredible museum.' Lucky indeed. Missed Bovington the (only) time I was in England. Been to Yad La-Shiryon (Latrun) over the years, though. 3 or 4 times, I think. IDF is my primary armor interest. Fury and German are on the side. After I finish painting my Shelf of Doom (2 aircraft, one PT boat) and building CVN-65 circa 1963 for my dad, I'll be going back to armor.

Neo Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Just received a Sprue brothers order i spotted the iron maiden spitfire and could not resist to get it since its one of SWMBO favorite band.! the other item are the Ink Squirts decals, saw a build of this a while back on LSP and told myself i had to build one. Ive been fighting the temptation to get a 1/32 B-25, well this is going to make it harder! Let see if i can find a second hand one LSP_K2, Out2gtcha, Uncarina and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted February 19, 2021 Author Share Posted February 19, 2021 The mission this year, will be to reacquire a few select grail kits, kits that I had and either sold off or lost. This is one of those kits, recently received. Not a great kit, but I really like it anyway, so I'm a happy fella right now.

LSP_Ray Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 You probably don't want to hear, but I shipped three large boxes of Star Trek kits along with many resin variants and conversions to my nephew. That was one one of them, plus another with a resin conversion to a variant. Amazing how much is out there. I just kept a box of TOS kits.

LSP_K2 Posted February 20, 2021 Author Share Posted February 20, 2021 Yes, you mentioned that to me, Ray, but this kit makes me very happy, all by itself. Rick Griewski and Uncarina 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
