My stash just grew again (2012).

[Thorvic]

Welcome back into the fold Aeroplanedriver, glad to hear you got the model bug back. As for for new or stash, well there are a couple of points to remember, you need to catch up with whats been released during your break from modelling as a few kits have come out that would be of interest to you and secondly after restarting you need the inspiration model to kick start you so that often comes from something new rather from current stash, although it all depends on what idea grabs you of course

Hi Nick,
great to see you back and as Geoff says, you need to splash the cash on the stash.

Try saying THAT when you've had a few beers!

Just get Chris to say it on the Saturday afternoon at Telford.

It was your fault, you shouldn't have left me in charge of the stand with the wine box under the table 

Forgot to mention that the local MZ had one Dragon Meteor F.3 left in the sale - better then half price so it's joined it's chum I got last week in the stash

Tamiya Beaufighter with some various resin bits for the Aussierama below.   


A Mad Max DB5?!??   

[Army of One]

Couple of evilbay wins.....a Hasegawa 1/72 Hind A for a bargain....just missing sprue E....not a great loss apart from the rotor head.....and a Revell 1/72 Spitfire Mk IV for a bargain....got a few more spits coming...,

[The Wooksta!]

Revell IV?  They never did one in 72nd.  You mean the Vb or the IIa.  The Vb is awful shapewise - no gull wing and the prop is suspect.  It's salvageable with a new wing.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS the Forces of Valour Spitfire IXc.  It's the worst Spitfire kit in 72nd ever and makes the Starfix ones look halfway reasonable.

Saturday saw me finally recieve a Brigade Spitfire Tr.9 from one of the dudes over on Britmodeller.

[Army of One]

Wooks.....typo.....it is the V with normal/clipped wing....got it v cheap....the others are...another of them and a SMER H.F.Mk VI and MkVc.....those 3 for £6.99....not bad methinks with a couple of £ p+p....

[The Wooksta!]

Again, both of those are pretty awful, being based on the Heller Vb which isn't the best.  They both have nice decals and the VI has a new sprue of bits for the HF version.  Both have nice shiny new canopies. 

My advice is take these bits and put them on something better, such as the Airfix Vb which is pretty accurate shapewise.
