That's okay I just bought a Revell 4849 1/32 BAe Hawk T.1 RAF Kit on eBay for $25.40!! Flory Models in the UK reviewed it and said its a must have kit. Beautiful build straight out of the box!! So if the said I must have then it was okay, lol!!
RalphSarc Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 Arrived at Hobbytown USA to find both Tamiya pastels I was looking for plus my wife supplied me with some pastel pencils. Looking forward to adding this skill level to my list of modeling abilities :-)
RalphSarc Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 My Tamiya 1/35 scale German Panther Tank finally arrived. I'm building it and a 1/32 scale P38J Lockheed Lightning for LSM's Beaches to Berlin group build.This will be my first armor build so looking forward to learning a whole new set of modeling skills.Should be great fun!! 1
lawman56 Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 Ralph, I think that Panther may just kindle a love for armor....... 1

I've heard fantastic things about it. I understand its a great introduction kit into the wonderful world of armor modeling :-) I look forward to building it. 2
lawman56 Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 I think I mentioned this, but it was my first non-snap together kit , back when Tamiya released it in the 80s. Such a fantastic build right out of the box! 1

Such a fantastic build right out of tI thin I think I may start it next before the P38J since I have time. I did some research today and posted that on my Facebook group, link below! Looked for some color schemes but kind of like the box art! 1
Artful69 Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 An update on collecting some new items on my return from holiday in Manila ... 1st up a great new read ... Next ... a couple of references familiar to most of you ... and I agree with many reviews - very nice!! I had purchased this, the second of my ZM Ta152's in original boxing, before I left for Manila ... I had it delivered to a friend in case it arrived while I was away ... And lastly ... these arrived at the post office for collection today ... supplied by my usual UK contact ... Rog 3

That'd take a while loading up the car then ! lol thanks very much fellas ... though to be fair, this was all done over the period of a month or two ... unlike some of the purchases last year (15 kits inside a couple of weeks - done several times!) ... There are still a few kits I am chasing ... not the least of which is the ZM Fw190 series when they make their auspicious appearance!! And I am desperately hoping Classic Publications re-release the Ju-88 Vol.1 book!!! ... Rog
Reelo Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 For my birthday I just got the new Eduard Gustav, the Hasegawe Friedrich (trop) in 1:32, and a biography of Hans-Joachim Marseille. Couldn't be happier! Well I should start thinking about getting an airbrush and compressor. But... the wife... :-/
