Thanks guys . I think it's the most cash I've spent at one time, to be honest - 320$. Hopefully it's worth it -(better be, as i worked for 32 hours to get the $& LOL) Hmmm... Never heard of "spudded" before... I have some things to complete for school in the next couple of days, and then I'll get down to modelling over march break .

Great investment! Hope it really helps you take better pictures of models? If so, that's something I should look into getting one some day...

Glad you were able to secure a replacement! I'm always very careful around my tripod for the same reason, have had a couple scares though!

cool stuff Spuddie!!!! Since I got the camera I'm a Canon lover, though I don't have the cash for all the goodies . Looks like a very neat flash I must say. I pretty much never use it, but if you are completely into photography like you do it's a well worth investment . Don't drop it again though Cheers

For my Ya build I ordered the driver today: It'll be my first Alpine figure, and I will use the fur hat head...

Thanks Spud Given you have most of their figures at home, how are they usually moulded? Is the body in one piece or does it need assembling (a part from the head that I know it's separate from the rest)?

Arrived from the post office today Means something the MATV is next in line again After the FlakPanzer was return to the owner, he gave me another dog kit, this is much worst than the previous one, most of the parts is molded in one piece... bomb with injection pins and riddled with ejection marks, will be doing a un-identified tank group due to the decals already unused

Alright, I Just went to a Meeting of Armor modelers at a hobby shop in Ottawa tonight (7-10). My 1st time going, and everyone was nice, helpful, etc - we started by watching a tutorial about soldering PE, and then did some other stuff (It is a monthly thing I believe). Anyways, knowing me, I saw a few things while I was there, including a Sturer Emil and PE (only 45$ for them total ), some fruils, and some misc tools, as well as a magazine. Sorry for the crummy pics - ipod camera + not much light isn't the best combo. I may incorporate the Emil with my other two recent acquisitions in a city themed dio, or something similar. I really need to save my $$ now though . -Oliver

LOL dicky . It's just that I keep finding cool kits and great deals . I need to save my $$ now though - I want to be able to go up for some flights soon (trying to get my pilots license). I have a fair bit of work to do on my project for school, but i may get started on one of my kits and a base later - btw, how do you guys get such straight edges in yours? I can never seem to. A example of the type I mean: -Oliver
