That's a great price for one. I can't blame you for buying.
-
Looking good there John. Don't forget the sliding mount for the canopy.

What is on your bench right now ? Share a picture :)

Got the decals onto Little Miss Mischief. At which point I realized the tail should be red. Oh well, so much for complete accuracy. -
I'd say yes to add some additional menace to the plane.

It's a scratch build for the Tamiya. I started is as a distraction build but need to get back to it. Got the armour plates templates made up. Just need the shell ejection chute. Sorry Harv for the off post. Carl

Tim, you may want to check out this site. http://tiger1.info/ There's a list of kits and things that may need correcting if you're so inclined with each one. Carl

Same here. And the Aims Ju88 P1. And a Tse Tse Mosquito. I'm waiting for the ZM Hs129 with the PaK cannon.

Gotta love big guns on a plane.

That was the whole point. Something where you can't rivet count. I've got their Lanc as well. That'll be done as VR-A. -

Yesterday I got my Honda City finished. I took for a spin in the laneway. Seems slower than I expected but that may be the battery pack needing a charge. Thankfully I didn't roll it as these things are notoriously top heavy. Now to finish Sue's VW Bus so we can have drag races with the kids. -
They did 1/25 as well. I think a couple have been reissued in the last while.

American trucks......my soft spot......

There's a low bridge in the US where they have cameras set up to film all the over height vehicles that miss the warnings and try to drive under it. http://11foot8.com/ -
That is dusty. My best man ran 5 marathons in the Saharan desert a few years ago. They were on consecutive days. Afterwards he said he never wants to see sand again. Carl

1/35 was the creation of Tamiya. Their early armour kits were motorized and they found the batteries would fit in a 1/35 tank so that's what they went with. So not quite box scale but more like battery scale.

Ok, that makes sense. I wondered about the waterline but wasn't sure.
-
Same here. Looks like cottage country to me.
-
Great job Harv. It's nice to mix it up every so often. Carl

I wanted a quick change of pace so I broke out a 4 engine heavy. I had hoped to build an HK B-17G as Little Miss Mischief but this will have to do. -

Thanks Phil. My dad tried when I was younger but not as much. I don't think he as interested as me. -

I've been working on an RC car with my youngest son. We're almost done the assembly but I'm still trying to wrap my head around the steering assembly.  The steering tie rods are connected to the upper arms. But it supposedly will be steerable while doing wheelies. We'll see. -
I went to my LHS to get some Tamiya Extra Thin. They were sold out unfortunately. Somehow, these followed me home instead.
-
I'd be interested in seeing how those stencils work out. Hope you can show us at some point. Carl

Sluggo, the finish on your Hound looks great. I especially like the worn paint finish. Gaz, did you cut the masks yourself? Good idea to split up the paint job into sections. Carl -

Still looks mighty impressive. -
Sadly to Canada it would a lot more. I found one in BC for $70 USD shipped but they're currently out of stock so I'm waiting for it to come back in.
