BloorwestSiR Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 I had a couple books arrive before Christmas. Yesterday I went to my LHS Wheel & Wings for their annual Boxing Day sale. I broke down and picked up a couple of Tamiya kits as they were 20% off. The Tomcat worked out to $115 CAD and the F-35 was $87 CAD so a great deal.

Uncarina Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Well done! I’m excited to start that F-35. Cheers, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironman1945 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Love Ducati motorcycles, I currently own a 2001 Ducati 996 Biposta. My wife gave this to me for Christmas, Pocher 1/4 scale die cast Ducati 1299 Panigale. Great kit. And I'm very lucky my wife indulges me. Cheers!

My wife tried to find one of my actual bike ... 996 but no such kit exists. However, I cant complain as I have the real thing! Cheers!

But... just dont like them as much as the 996, which was my dream bike for quite a few years before I finally found this one. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denders Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 So, my haul from the vendor room at Chattanooga. First off, a large, heavy jig for large biplanes. A couple of books. I bought the US Navy book because it is published by Vallejo and perhaps the author might give out some 'secrets' when using Vallejo acrylics. I've used the Vallejo acrylics and done well with them (I think) but figured I would have a look. Who knows. Next are some tool type items. The white blades are ceramic blades. It was noted that the blades are a tad wide for a #1 handle, should probably use a #2 handle. Looking at it, they're not as wide as a #2 handle, so I'm wondering if they might slide in the handle during use. I also thought the handle shown would be useful, but I don't see how to replace the single blade that comes in it. The other items are probably self explanatory. Then, there are these kits that I picked up. And a non-LSP kit. Then a kit that is made of unobtainium and the PE and decals that came with it. So, I had an enjoyable trip. The better half hasn't said anything, but I probably won't be allowed to go anywhere near a show until NATS.

Neo Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 @dendersive been tempted by those ceramic blades last year, could you share feedback on how they perform once you try them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_K2 Posted January 9, 2023 Author Share Posted January 9, 2023 I received this a couple of weeks back, but neglected to do a show on tell on him. My very first ever purchased 3D product, the Lost in Space robot, and it looks just spectacular.

Stokey Pete Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 This landed on my doorstep this morning. A prize won in the LSP Raffle event, which was such a cool thing to be a part of. I will do my best to do the kit justice. I have a new sub-genre to look into now, having never looked at modelling WW1 aircraft. dutik, Uncarina, Rockie Yarwood and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
