Artful69 Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 A few things inbound at present ... Those that have arrived include: An AIMS G-6 conversion for a Revell Ju.88 ... not sure which kit I'll have to use at present ... but this is one of the original releases with quite a few marking/decal options ... so I can get another from John at some point: Next ... the HK Mosquito ... ... And the Tamiya effort ... More in a couple of weeks Rog 2
Wumm Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Nice haul there! I had the AIMS G-6 conversion, it's a wonderful piece of kit (or should that be a wonderful kit of pieces?), but unfortunately had to sell it as it was composed of too much resin at a time when my Doctor was telling me not to have any contact with the stuff. Maybe one day in the future... S 2
Artful69 Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Yay my Revell 1/32 Fw190F-8 finally arrived!!! It has amazing detail for $23.95 US and includes an inflight display stand!! Is that your stash behind you? impressive! Rog

Although, looking through the box, I'm going to have to email him a bunch of questions and for some directions as my skill set leaves me unsure on how to proceed with a lot of it. Rog
Wingco57 Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Rog, Just being curious but what are your plans with all those kits? You cannot build them all in your lifetime and the next. Cees
Artful69 Posted July 26, 2015 Posted July 26, 2015 Rog, Just being curious but what are your plans with all those kits? You cannot build them all in your lifetime and the next. Cees I really don't know how to answer that question, Cees ... since you already seem to have a set of assumptions in place ... I guess I could type out a whole list of plans here ... yet this isn't really the thread for it. Rog 1
Verbeek Posted July 26, 2015 Posted July 26, 2015 A lot of nice stuff arrived by a lot of you gents. Those are mine, buy them yesterday:

Rog It goes without saying, Happy to help with advice should you need it with the G-6 kit. S
Artful69 Posted July 26, 2015 Posted July 26, 2015 It goes without saying, Happy to help with advice should you need it with the G-6 kit. S I may actually take you up on that at some point ... I have a couple of questions I'll need to ask John first - mainly about his kit bits ... it appears (according to instructions) that I'm going to have to scratch a couple items for the conversion ... Rog
kahunaminor Posted July 28, 2015 Posted July 28, 2015 Just had the postie drop by with these goodies for the HKM Mosquito: Gotta be happy with that! 3
Wingco57 Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Hmm nice Mossie set, expensive but nice. Personally I think that pitot-tube is a waste of money. Cees
wackyracer Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Just had the postie drop by with these goodies for the HKM Mosquito: Gotta be happy with that! Its a very nice set, I think you'll enjoy it.
Artful69 Posted August 10, 2015 Posted August 10, 2015 Okies ... Time for another post First up ... something I've been chasing for quite some time ... not LSPs ... but my favourite Sensha-Do team from Oorai - Team Anglerfish!! Max Factory posable figurines ... about 1/12 scale ... I've got their 1/12 Panzer IV.D on backorder as well - due end of October! Miho Nishizumi (Commander and school captain), Yukari Akiyama (Loader) , Saori Takabe (Radio Operator), Hana Isuzu (Gunner) and Mako Reizei (Driver) Next is the new Zoukei-Mura SWS Ta.152H-0 ... Been looking for another 1/24 Trumpeter Hurricane for a while (I have the Mk.I) ... but only for a decent price! ... and thanks to a fellow LSP'er ... ... and because it came in a package deal ... and you can never have enough Spitfires, 109's or 190's on the shelf ... I already have one of these ... but because it was the same price as the package deal and a fellow LSP'er is going to need one for a Bf.110G-4 conversion due out in the not too distant future ... I thought it would make a nice gift!! *** EDIT *** ... I didn't include this at the time because ... 1) I didn't order it - I thought it was a mistaken inclusion and 2) I thought I'd have to return it ... after all, modern jets just aren't my subject! BUT ... after a PM exchanged with the original owner ... it turns out that the box was just protection (and camouflage!!) for this!! More later ... Rog 3

Iceman Posted August 12, 2015 Posted August 12, 2015 Well after completing my D-13 build, I am beginning to see a D-11 build somewhere in my future. Very nice set produced by Montex, resin castings are excellent. 2
Paulster Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Birthday present to me. Been saving for almost 3 years side change and crv (recycling aluminum cans) money. Was working an elementary school when I started this adventure so a little "trash diggin'' paid off. 2
Paulster Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Gunner Mike gave me this for "Ranch sitting" while he was out of state.
Paulster Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Could not pass this up. Squadron had this on an introductory price of $43 plus a 20% off coupon. Beautiful detail and molding. 1
JG26 Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Raffle Prize at the Hobby Expo! It's new, it's Tamiya, it was free!- can't go wrong with that. The new Panther D looks like a top kit too. After perusing one in the flesh I'll have to give in before long.....Only thing that's still being questioned at the moment are the odd rear engine deck cooling grills....One spiral, one straight? weird. The big "T'" must have got information from somewhere.... But, it's Tamiya. Would buy one in a blink. Regards, Dan M
Paulster Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 I built the Special Hobby's one so they would come out with this for you.
Verbeek Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Still not much modelling for me.To much back pain.I just can sit a little, but I have to sit with my back right up.So, great for reading some great books who I just have buy.Here the reading corner and the new books 1
Paulster Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Usually, but not always. Once I started using metal after market barrels, especially ones for AFV type kits, kit supplied ones never measured up.
