Marc I dont think you will be at all disappointed by that GREX...Bought my first one after Armorcon, and I LOVE IT! Its a little different from a true dual action, but I find it very intuitive and much more forgiving on my hand (carpal tunnel) That's crazy - I tried the Grex Tritium several years ago and turned right around and sold it. Great airbrush, but that pistol grip set my upper forearm/lower elbow on fire with very carpal tunnel-like symptoms. Different strokes I guess! Now the XGI (basically a sticked version of the Tritium) - I'm very happy with that one! |

Niiiiice catch, Chris! By chance, I got something WW1-related too today at the local flea market. Should be a nice addition for later dioramas/figures.  |

10€ each. They belong to a collection of the so called "Königsorden". Its the "Pour le Merité (1844) and the "Grosskreuz zum Eisernen Kreuz 1813". Of course these are replicas, the original pieces would cost an amount with 5 or 6 numbers.  . |

The Mantis resin goodies for my Schwimie arrived a couple of days ago:  And very nice they are too! I claimed earlier I had ET PE for the Tammy kit - I was wrong: it's by Passion Models. Despite Wouter's low opinion of my ability to resist temptation, I'm not going to get the 2cm Gebirgsflak - after paying the April bills my account is on life-support and I can't justify spending 40€ on resin. |

Picked it up on Amazon for about 10 bucks. I broke one stuck gunze jar opening it and decided to pick it up.  Looks like my channel locks can finally be retired. Jeff |

I guess technically this is a stash addition...they go in the same room! Trophy haul from Downeastcon last weekend in Saco, Maine. Entered 21 categories, placed in 16 of them. 5x firsts, 10x seconds, and a lone third place gong.  |

I have been a really good boy so far this year (though its still early days). So far this is my only kit purchase.  Problem is it now has me looking at a 1/32nd version. |

Congrats on the haul Dupes! Looks like you've already got the year's worth of dio bases covered. That's some restraint Bish! A 1/32 Ju-88 would be an impressive build. |

I know, and so far I have only built one 32nd kit, a 109. I think I might have to get a bit more practice before I even think about getting the 32nd kit and conversion, let alone building it. |

The "take" from AMPS Nationals. Not included in the picture is 10-15 books and such, a handful of tools, and about a dozen bottles of paint, glue, and putty. From Takom, we have an AMX 13, St Chamond and a Mark IV, AFV Club we have the Chapparal and M-109A6, as well as a 50 cal accessory kit. Bronco shows up with an M-114 Howizer and Riich gives us a M-57 field gun. Theres an Aoshimi Thunderbird pod and dock set, and a figure of Agent Natasha Romanoff manufacturer unknown. Meng rounds out the field of major kits with the FT-17... Throw in some 72nd scale winnings, and I had a hell of a pull from the 3 days at AMPS !  |

ehmmm. There is an upgrade set for a Mustang GT? Which scale is it? Two unusual kits for my stash - a boat (for the floaty GB eventually?) and another tank in a strange apearance in Prague, 1945.  |

Ahhhhh, you bot a Beaver. Lucas, that would be 1/25 scale or 70mm. The figures also. And yes Leo, have a few dios I'm working on and these will all work for Post Apocalyptic modeling in 1/25 scale.
