This will go nicely with my 6x6 Coyote

You think you've got temptation issues!

Well if it is your fault I'm not really putting alot of effort into complaining about it 😉😀

For the stash ..well on the stash page...just brought a new airbrush ..a Hobby Mio HM-230 0.2mm Lightweight High Precision Double-Action Airbrush..as the listing said 😆 🤣

I needed more glue.  Could I limit my online order to glue alone?

What do you guys think...

Well one has to bump the order up to justify the expense of the postage. Plus the more there is in the order reduces the CO2 emmisions per item when it comes to shipping and helps the climate

Needs a kit to go with it I reckon.

While visiting the only model shop for MILES around Inverness (it's in Dingwall, and almost impossible to get to by car!) I picked up a 1/72 Arma P-51B/C has it had such good reviews, and their first kit, the Hurricane Mk I, was magnificent. The Mustang's the same, superb mouldings, lots of extras (I got the Expert version....) and maybe 6 decal choices.

Well worth going there.

These two arrived today:

Simplistic part split, but the upside is a quick build. And the two seater makes so much more sense in our Northern Europe theatre.

Jumped on this in particular for the Finnish decals, thinking I would have to source roundels and serials elsewhere as I want the later, smaller ones, but on checking out the kit, they're included. Win!

Arriving much quicker than expected my glue was accompanied by some chrome paint (AK - Molotow refill proving hard to find) and one of these (because I liked the look of it in the box art).

Unusually for a Japanese kit it has the bonnet moulded open.  But there is no engine, inner fenders, firewall etc.  Hmmm, tempting...
