Re: My stash just grew again (2017)

[Dizzyfugu]

Does not look bad at all. Yes, it's a VERY early MPM kit and pretty crude. But it's the only 1:72 La-9/11 unless you like vacu kits...

[KiwiZac]

And that's a very good reason to go back and build another 

Very, very keen to get the new MikroMir 1/48 kit to build her again. A fine-looking kit. Unfortunately my 1/72 model is one of several to have vanished over the years. I was so, so proud of it. The 1:1 deal went to the USA in 2010 and she is much missed over here.

But it's the only 1:72 La-9/11 unless you like vacu kits...

Not quite...

Revell 1/72 Lancaster Mk. I/II - just need to get a pair of Griffons (probably from Airfix PR.XIX Spit's), then I'm going to do a zenrat on it!

[NARSES2]

Nice photos Zac, cheers 

The bottom one, with the cowling off and exposed engine has an almost Fw 190/Zero look about it at first glance ?

[The Chaos]

New at my Stash.

You're very welcome! Dad has a rather nice DSLR he used to let me take to shows, nowadays all I do is static shots so I've not needed it in a while. All of these are from Warbirds Over Wanaka 2010, her last airshow appearance in NZ (and, to date, anywhere). Very glad I got to see her fly at a couple of shows.

Dad thought it looked so much like a 190 that when I said I wanted a model of it he suggested kitbashing one!

Just had delivered direct from Hataka the Modern British Army and RAF AFV paint set

http://hataka-hobby.com/products/modern-british-army-raf-afv-paint-set/

Has the acrylic colours to do the British Army post war schemes included the desert sand and the temporary whitewash winter camo, but it also has the RAF Blue Grey and Golden yellow for the airfield equipment

Interesting on two accounts -

One is how long did it take to get here ?

The second is that I didn't think you could send paints and that through the Royal Mail ?

[NARSES2]

I've still got that book somewhere, had most of the series.

The Zveda 1/100 tanks look very interesting

8 days from Poland and they are Acrylic paints -water based so have no restrictions as none harmful to the postie, the red boxes at acrylic intended for air brushing, the blue box is the acrylic brush painting version and the new orange line is the Lacquer solvent based paints, which may run foul of the rules.

I do like them and there are a couple of sets I fancy, but haven't seen at shows. Think I'll be putting an order in 

[PR19_Kit]

A Master etched and turned brass 20mm Vulcan cannon, destined for the tail turret of the Monterey, direct from Poland.

It's positively MINUTE, so I hope I can actially assemble the little jewel of a thing properly.

Found the 1/72 vacform kit of the Blohm & Voss Bv 222. It's a Airmodel with clear vacform canopy which will be used on the Revell kit.
Eric the Viking will get the Contrail Avro Vulcan wings added to the Airmodel kit.
