No one actually gave me any kits.  The Revellogawa Mosquito I'd bought fromone of the dudes on Britmodeller arrived on Xmas eve so that got opened on Xmas day - does that count?

However, Santa DID give me the finance to buy one of these:





It's a System Chase Ship from the Blake's 7 episode Redemption, something I've wanted for years.  Pity I can't get a Liberator in the same scale to go with it...

My bro gave me a set of precision punches/dies.  It's going to work out just right when I build my DH.101 jig

Love that ship from Blake's 7!

Nothing directly model-related for me, but did get "The Furniture Guys Book" and a magazine of 200 Woodworking Tips and Tricks, because my other hobby is fixing and building furniture.

Since I didn't get anything for models, I will therefore reward myself with a couple 1/72 armour models to build a modern Lee/Grant. I'll pick the models when I get to the hobby store.
In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.

I recieved a very nice craft knife from the better half, and a couple of memory sticks.

I am also getting American Secret Projects 2 - Bombers, Secret Projects - Flying wingsGerman Air Projects Vol.3 (Mr Mareks).

But these are from me!, and have been dispached today.

Hi Lee,

How big is that thing and what's the clear red bit made out of?  That looks remarkably clear.
