BlrwestSiR Posted November 20, 2020 Posted November 20, 2020 Here we go! That's a lot of bubble wrap for one model... Just kidding. Underneath is the biggie Man, I think I ordered this last year. Guess it's good I wasn't in a rush. 11 1

Cheers Rob I've got the Griffin PR set as well. That came in about 6 months ago. I missed out on the U-Model figures as I can't find them anywhere. I do have the Italeri set and I see there's some on Shapeways so might get those. 4

I will build mine with the 20mm Oerlikon on it. I tried to figure my sources for the U-Models figures and ADV, but drew a blank. I bought mine some years ago, back in Berlin. Cheers Rob 8
GazzaS Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Got my first ever Artwox wooden deck this week. But still fighting this cold... don't think it worth a photo. Got some 1/48 MG17 barrels, too. Again... not very exciting. 5
HubertB Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Fell to the temptation of adding another Lukgraph kit to the stash. After all, you can’t get enough yellow wings, can you ? And now I can rationalise that I was right. The Curtiss F6C-1 I ordered shows « sold out » on Lukgraph’s site ! (Prescient) Hubert 7
TJTX Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 Got a real treat. I was also able to get about everything possible to assist with the build. I hope to have this with my F-16 when Nationals is a thing again! Not pictured is AMS resin intake plugs (thanks Harold!!) and another set of resin M117s. 9
TJTX Posted November 24, 2020 Posted November 24, 2020 2 minutes ago, BlrwestSiR said: That's a lot of resin. And AM too. From what I've read and looked at in the kit, it can really use it. I truly want this one to be a bit of a center piece in my office and am willing to put forth the effort and time to get that result. 5
Bill_S Posted November 30, 2020 Posted November 30, 2020 Something totally off the wall for me, but I couldn't resist. I've ridden my Continental for 40 years. 5 1
BlrwestSiR Posted November 30, 2020 Posted November 30, 2020 That's cool Bill. Definitely not a kit you see often. Carl 4

Definitely something else. Could you possibly add some in box pics? I would love to see, how the spokes look and how they tackled the details. Many moons ago, I nearly bought a 1/9 kit of a racing bike by protar. The Schwinn is a cool looking classic with that skinny old fashioned steel frame, I loved, how these forks worked on cobblestone. If anybody would produce a replica of my first MTB, A Trek single track, I would buy it in an instant. Cheers Rob 4

My bike has a chrome drive sprocket; I'll have to pull out the Molotow marker for that. Vinyl parts are included with the kit. The seat, tires and an accesory bag. Also (not pictured) a length of vinyl tubing for brake lines. Lots of chrome parts. The wheels/spokes are split in half... Lots of accessories included with the kit; I won't use the fenders, child seat, beverage bottle, mirror, headlight etc. Bare bones, just like mine! 5 1
Daniel_Roxy Posted November 30, 2020 Posted November 30, 2020 I got some models coming soon. I hope. A KV-1 1942. A Panzer IV G. And a 75mm AT gun. Iv not done an open tank or field gun before so don't really know how it will turn out but I hope to make it look nice. When the .models arrive I'll be sure to come back and notify of them 4

Daniel_Roxy Posted December 3, 2020 Posted December 3, 2020 Well they turned up. Can't wait to get started but what to do first. I'm thinking the Pack 40 7

BlrwestSiR Posted December 3, 2020 Posted December 3, 2020 I'm curious about the Zvezda kit too. I've only got their Star Destroyer and haven't done anything with it so no idea on how they go together. Carl 4

Carl Yeah I looked at some models online they look pretty good and the kits got alot of small detail and parts I'll be sure to document the making off all 3 models 4
BlrwestSiR Posted December 3, 2020 Posted December 3, 2020 Just got a small package from the big H. A couple more pieces of the puzzle for the Lanc. And some masks for stuff in the stash. 6
