Spud- I am a big fan of those W&N brushes too... don't think I will ever live without 'em now. Wout- Great goodies!!! Please let me know if you need my address so you can ship some over here? ;D I'd love to get that SKP set because my PE came in 5 pieces including straps... is yours in one or two pieces? Guys- Earlier I mentioned I started collecting WWII relics and this arrived yesterday. My belated Christmas gift to myself you can say... German Mess Tin... often I find most paint peeled off or strap missing but not this one. Serial numbers also match... nice score via eBay. ![](http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww137/aleffler/Misc/photo-3-16.jpg) ![](http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww137/aleffler/Misc/photo-2-10.jpg) My next objectives... German gas mask & canister OR American M1 bayonet. ;D

Gary- LOL! I definitely will NOT... Nice score there Andy.....have yer got much gear? We've seen yer post bits and bobs intermittently....do you have it all on display or what? Dicky- Not much at this moment but started the collection last June... LOL Couple of items are not WWII related. My goal is to come up with two mannequins displaying full WWII uniforms and personal gears for both sides German and US. For the uniforms I will probably buy top quality re-enactment uniforms instead... you can see I still have a long way to go. ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) ![](http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww137/aleffler/Misc/photo-40.jpg) Inside small glass display case... ![](http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww137/aleffler/Misc/photo-1-23.jpg) ![](http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww137/aleffler/Misc/photo-2-11.jpg) Right now I have been looking around for a larger display case so I can store WWII stuff inside.

Andy, a fine collection it is sir! The mess tin is a great addition to it! Hey, do i see a Stratego in the bottom area? I cant tell you how many days of my life i lost to playin that game when i was a kid! First the cardboard game then when the electronic version came out....holy cow! I was Napoleon himself for hours on end....when i could get my buds to play with me..... ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) ;D Gary

Great collection very impressive. Well as I have not purchased a model for a few months and santa did not furnish me with any kits (the git!) I have taken the bull by the horns and treated myself! ![](http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q163/snipersmudge/sample%20pictures/S8003587.jpg) The Riich models Radschlepper in particular looks superb but the next model on the bench will be the Tamiya Simca just because it's a nice easy build.

Pete, I'm curious about that Radschlepper, definitely one of the stranger vehicles! Perhaps you could be coaxed into a build log? ;D

The Radschlepper is indeed a very interesting vehicle and the kit looks to be extremely refined. Rest assured that a build log will be forthcoming soon! ;D

That shot reminds me of the famous quote by Michelangelo about the sculpture already being in the marble, it just needs to be revealed!

now that's lovely lots of Styrene jackwagon...Must say I'm quite fond of the Evergreen stuff as well, though not using it as much as you do ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) Well, I forgot I signed up a while ago for a IDF group build on a Dutch forum...they gently reminded me of that since the GB was going to start ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png) ;D. So, I decided to do something different than what the others were doing: NOT building something IDF...everything in that GB allowed was IDF stuff and stuff which fought in the Arab Israeli wars...so I bought this...it's on it's way to Belgium: ![](http://www.sockelshop.de/catalog/images/24/large/TRU0377_l.jpg) ![](http://www.sockelshop.de/catalog/images/12/large/MC135049CL_prot_l.jpg) ![](http://www.sockelshop.de/catalog/images/43/large/PARE35002A_l.jpg) Keywords will be here: 'Desert' and 'Kaputt' ;D Cheers

Wouter- Looks cool... now I want to see you build this one! Guys- A package arrived today! My wife gave me one of those evil stare and this time she really MEANT it. Fortunately I had a defensive answer... used "HER" father's Xmas money he gave me. She let me off the hook this time... ![](http://i713.photobucket.com/albums/ww137/aleffler/Misc/photo-42.jpg) Love 'em AK... its your fault but I forgive you guys. They threw in a little surprise... a T-Shirt. Maybe it will attract nice looking ladies seen in the magazine? NOW I really need to come up with new defensive answer for my wife when another package arrives next week... damn you evilBay!
