Yesterday from a certain Warehouse in Suffolk....

1/35 Hobbyboss Leopard MBT 2 A5DK Denmark
1/35 Aber  T72M1 MBT metal gun barrel

and 1/72 Vingtor Norwegian RF-84 decals

all to be wiffed or to assist in wiffing.

RF-84?  Sexy beast (although the F-84 in all of its guises is a dog)!  I've some Stoppel Hobby Danish markings I must use.

i did a special Norwegian AF NF30 series Mossie based on the Matchbox kit with certain PR34 features which was destroyed over the
lockdown by my carelessness and my cat George. It was exhibited a few times last year at various shows, but was CAT5 damage. I'll do it again but with a Tamiya Mossie instead and with help from this decal sheet. It was better value buying this sheet than the Special Hobby RF84 kit again with the markings i used. Think ELINT flights over Murmansk and Archangel in late 1948/9  ;)  :wacko: :thumbsup:

Just snaffled a Revell Victor decal sheet and distructions off ebay - whilst I know which aircraft I want to do from an Xtradecal sheet, extra options are never a problem but that sheet doesn't have all the stencilling, which I do need.

would you like me to send some up from my stash?

Hemp and LAG finish or  Dark Green and Dark Grey, I can offer but not anti flash white.

Hemp, please, if you can spare a set it would be most useful.  The sheet just bought gives me the stencilling and the rest of the markings for my RAF one, but not the RAAF one.

Also snaffled a set of Firebrand markings for the early aircraft with the low demarcation.

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

I have more than enough quality rum to do that without resorting to other illicit substances.

Whilst trying to  get myself  a1/72nd scale  sea vixen for right money,  happened upon a Toko sea venom  which  nobody had bid on. So I  got it for 6 quid . I am thinking of putting a  pair of swept wings on it, and maybe an upgraded more powerful  engine  and putting it in  1960's  RAF  service.  The nose could  get swapped for something a bit more pointy  too, and arm it with firestreak missiles.  The sea vixen  search was an event all on its own , but managed to  find a frog repop on Kingkit for 19 quid or so. The cyberhobby one  I  wanted went for silly money and the revell one which is  also the frog kit repoped, went for more than i had paid for the kit from kingkit. Said revell kit had been  relisted on ebay as nobody  bid on it at its opening price of 19 quid, then it got relisted at 9 quid. Right sized hook and bait it seemed as I  got bid up to 20 quid  and it went  for £22 I think.
