I think you'll find the Luftwaffe emblems book to be very interesting. And the Stackpole volumes should be quite worthwhile too.

Picked up a couple items recently. First up is something a bit silly but perfect for enjoying with my boys.

I was on the other side of town checking out a new job and stopped in at the LHS afterwards and found this for a great price.

Guess I'll be doing a G conversion at some point after all.

 

Lastly, this arrived earlier from Peter Pools.

So thanks Peter for letting me cross another off the bucket list.

Well, 

Upon opening and inspecting the kit, a couple inital things jump out at me, prior to even going over the kit in detail like I will still need to do prior to my IB review:

 

- HpH now has a set of paper/written instructions included with the kit.

 

- (This ones for Dean) The "resin pool" that HpH uses in place of traditional pouring blocks (at least from first glance) is now substantially thinner.  Like a full order of magnitude thinner. Very similar to the resin "flash" one might see on a part that should be an opening, but is covered over with a super thin layer of resin that can normally be broken out by hand.

 

- HpHs resin seems a bit more smooth, than the last time I build an HpH kit (my Walrus) and also seems to be a different color? Im thinking HpH may have changed the resin they use all together, but cant be sure on that.

 

 

MUCH more later, as I will be doing an IB review for LSP on this gorgeous machine. Stay tuned!
