Artful69 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Okies ... Time to chip in again ... To kick off ... ever since I got that first ZM kit (He.219 Uhu) I've been wanting to buy an original boxing and 1st edition of their very first kit ... and thanks to an Austrian connection, on LSP, who was willing to part with it - I have it! Next a couple of handy reference books from Classics fame: the Me.210/410 - a handy reference for building that awesome HpH kit (and perhaps modifying) ... and an old favourite of mine, the Ju-52 - which I am hoping will be useful for an IM or Resin kit in 1/32 someday. We call all dream!! ... Meanwhile ... I'm loving this moulded Dragon Zimmerit stuff ... I did some with putty on a Tamiya kit a while back - It turned out ok looking, but definitely not to scale and rough as guts - now an effective paint mule ... Enter: Another kit for the "Late War" diorama. I've wanted to do an FAA Corsair since I bought the birdcage ... Corsairs are awesome aren't they? I can certainly understand why John builds a lot of them ... anyway, scored this one for half the price they retail for here from a connection in Hong Kong With my "Kursk" diorama deep into the design stage, various AFV and figurine collections almost complete ... and German LSP's of the campaign lined up ... It was time to add the main opposition air support contender to the list: Finally ... for this post anyway ... I couldn't resist those flared pants!! ... shades of the Bee Gees and Stayin' Alive: Rog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artful69 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Time to buy some friuls! Yeah ... I'm definitely not a big fan of the "rubber bands" ... That's why I started replacing most of my older tooled Tamiya collection with newer tooled Dragon stuff. The new tooled Tamiya stuff, however, is excellent in every other way, and they usually include figurines - which, these days, are as decently tooled as most others on the market. I wish Dragon would give us the in-box option of either DS or Magic-Tracks, rather than just assuming everyone loves DS ... it's almost getting back to 'toss-the-coin' stage now ... nice box art!!

Artful69 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I'm fine with DS tracks on Shermans, but they're kinda ridiculous on German armor. That said...I hate magic tracks, too. Friuls are definitely preferred - though I thought I saw somewhere recently that someone's doing Pz.III/IV snap-together tracks. Holy grail, that. I can definitely understand why Magic Tracks would drive some people insane ... I've almost had to be committed once or twice, myself! ... but for detail, track sag etc individual links were always worth the pain to me ... if you hear any more on those snap together items - or for any other Panzer type, for that matter (especially Tigers, Panthers and other late war vehicles) that are in the "Not-Ridiculously-Expensive" bracket ... please let me know!!

Dave J Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 Rog, Check out Luckymodel they have a new brand of indy tracks called Kaizen. I have some for my Nashorn build and they are 1/4 of the price of Fruils and will be making them my first option on tracks now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DannyVM Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Today i scored some stuff after visiting a local modeling convention. AK : heavy chipping and worn effects fluids. (i will need that for my future Corsair builds) Albion Alloys : Micro brass tubes ( My Harry Tate is waiting for some of this stuff) And Kagero Monographs : Vought F4U Corsair part I & II.

I have some for my Nashorn build and they are 1/4 of the price of Fruils and will be making them my first option on tracks now. Dave ... I've spent the last few days looking around all the major web-stores ... in multiple countries ... at separate track links ... Thank's for the tip!! ... Kaizen do look good ... or at least good enough for me! ... but I have the same issue as with Fruil track links - in that everyone is just about out of stock of every item except a couple ... I'll have to do a bulk order somewhere in order for the shipping to be viable for me ... Know anyone who could bulk order without charging drug money and with certainty of delivery?
