I nearly came away with a Revell 1/32 Tornado GR1!!!!! and I am still fighting the urge, ooh help. :blink:

 

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!!

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!!

Ralph, I think that Panther may just kindle a love for armor....... :lol:

LOL you think so??

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.

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 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!

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 ...

Dang! When you go shopping you go shopping.

 

 

That's what I call a shopping spree. :D

 

 

Nice !  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 :)

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... :-/
