Expand Patience, my friend. I have to finish this 109 and you have to finish the one you have going now and the P-40. 4
Peterpools Posted October 16, 2022 Posted October 16, 2022 Gaz How true. Today after a week of struggling, more cuss words then I knew I had, the gear was on. Thank goodness maybe only one more day and the Whirlwind is done and then I'm onto the P-40 4

Bill_S Posted October 16, 2022 Posted October 16, 2022 A couple of items... First F-86 decals and stencils (destined for the old Hasegawa kit). They arrived from Ukraine two weeks earlier than expected! Second, a Bf109G tall tail from a swap with Martin. 5 1
belugawhaleman Posted October 16, 2022 Posted October 16, 2022 Delivered today via Amazon two kits from Tamiya. First, Tamiya's Jagdpanther IV/70 (V) LANG (Sd. Kfz. 162/1) (35340). Despite getting this kit for $20.00 cheaper than for what it usually goes for, and with free shipping.... I was unhappy with the delivery..... The box was shipped in just a plastic bag!. Anyway, I've been eyeing this kit for a while....I like the looks of this low to the ground, mean-looking fighting vehicle. Kind of reminding me of a malevolent Dachshund. Also today came Tamiya's British 10 HP light Utility Car "Tilly" (35308) . I thought it might be a fun build. Looks like a nice little kit.....Something different anyway. Yesterday came from Tamiya a detail set for for the Jagdpanzer IV (v) lang. # 12660 . It consists of a metal gun barrel and some parts for a more detailed breach for the gun...a useful, but not absolutely necessary addition to the kit. 8 1

Expand Rog, the FV101 chassis APC was the Spartan, only available in 1/35 in Resin as far as I am aware with quite a hefty price tag too for the size of the model. Cheers Kev 3

Cheers Kev Expand Kev ... Actually the FV101 was the Scorpion light reconnaissance tank ... the Spartan was FV103 ... I dug up the article listing all types built on the same chassis here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combat_Vehicle_Reconnaissance_(Tracked) All in all, the array results in quite the miniaturised panzer division - with the diversity of vehicle types represented on the same chassis. Either way ... the FV432 is not based on the same chassis - just a similar one Rog 3 1

belugawhaleman Posted October 19, 2022 Posted October 19, 2022 Bought some POSCA paint marker pens...they came today. I purchased two sets of three markers..... One set in Ultra fine, writing a .7mm line and the other three producing lines from .9 to 1.3mm. I plan to use these for the two French tank models I got recently....both having the black- lined color demarcation camouflage that the French used. We'll see how that works out. 5 1
