I downloaded the instructions for this kit..and I must say it looks like an amazing kit. Wow! It's kind of expensive but I may look into getting one. I saw it on Hobbyeasy for $99.00 USD but the shipping would be a killerl

I've been adding to my Dspiae collection lately with these recent arrivals... I added their ..... AT-CR Aluminum Alloy Stepped Wire Roller AT-PST Parallel Scribing Tool. I'm impressed by this thing! Solid all metal construction. AT-MA Multi-Angle Sanding Slider This thing is pretty slick! AT-R Craft Tools Rack. This thing is built Like a tank. Very solid. It's described as a "Low Pressure Forging" Anyway, very nice. Anyway, I've managed to get back to the bench and I have been trying to get it organized. I have been mostly living at my mother's home...Her eyesight is failing and she needs constant care. My bench is at my home, which I have been visiting infrequently. Last week I was able to do some work on an "Egg Girl" resin kit. I hope to get back there this weekend and perhaps finish up that Tamiya Semovente. Meanwhile, I'll be mostly buying tools and Supplies. I did order a 1/35 RSO kit by Miniart that will be coming soon. I'm really impressed by the quality of these Dspiae items and I would recommend them. I hope you find this post useful. Thanks; Paul

Beautiful work Rob😀 -
Typical.. I had a recent package "Processing in Palatine " ( 40 min from me) for four days after being reported as departing there four days earlier.

Some stuff..... From Dspiae their AT-HV Hand Held Mini Vise. This thing is nice! Very well-finished . I know this be useful. From Red Fox Studio, an instrument panel for the 1/32 Nakajima Ki44-2 Tojo (RFSQS32049) Looks very nice! From YELLOW-WINGS DECALS, A set for my 1/32 Hasegawa P-26 From Quickboost, a set of resin exhaust pipes for my 1/32 Ki-44 (QB 32 072) From DEAD DESIGN MODELS, A mask set for the Ki-44 (VM32 017) Never heard of this maker before. I also got a set of IJA seatbelts in 1/32 from Eduard

I believe they're releasing the 1/24 City as well, but I think it's the turbo version without the compo.

Very nice! The Zagato bodied Aston!....very beautiful design.

I do not rule out a conspiracy led by the German arms industry but it may be just a serendipitous turn of events😀

Great job Scott! -
Yes, hilarious about the robots😀 If you think about it, what else? I don't think Trumpeter wants to offend western customers by suggesting a west/east conflict. Anyway I noticed and mentioned that a while back to a family member and we had a chuckle....... Imagine a possible diorama demonstrating A robot insurrection involving those Gundam robot things........well 'nuff said😀

Some items... From Hasegawa, their 1/32 Nakajima Ki 44-2 Hei SHOKI (Tojo) (08880) St30. From AOSHIMA, their 1/12 MOTOCOMPO AB12 '81(06290) I remember that these Were meant to carried in your car ( Honda City) in the early 1980's. A strangely Japanese Idea. The little scooter folded up to achieve this, but weighing about 100 lbs., I wouldn't want to lift this into a car. Anyway, thought the model might be built to display with an "Egg Girl". From HIQ Parts, six sets of circle masks. I thought these might be useful for masking instrument dials, perhaps, or Other uses, we'll see. From Tamiya, a set of HG TWEEZER GRIP SCISSORS (74157**2100) An interesting new tool for me. Last, also from Hasegawa, another " Egg Girl".

I'd be interested in The Dauntles as long as it's not too costly. 1/35 is fine by me!

Are they making the entire aircraft or just a cockpit upgrade?
