[robbo]

My Hellcat has just been delivered and I'm a bit miffed as to why it's called a weekend edition? I was thinking that maybe it'll have few parts but the box is a faif size and packed with parts. Hmm, anyone know?

[406 Silverado]

Man you guys are bagging some great stuff...... All I got was one of these...same color too...1/1 scale


Won't be getting many new kits in the near future after this one.

[robbo]

Very nice Rob

[spud]

[robbo]

Didn't think of Destroying it lol

[406 Silverado]

[spud]

Aww

[wouter]

well...nothing I bought, but me girlfriend got me this for my birthday (that's only this wednesday!)

And I love her for that! Man, what a gift

Cheers

[spud]

ohh 1100D Very nice, Now use that money you saved and grab your self a Sigma 100mm macro lens, Cannons is a bit Pricy , the 18-55 is ok but you cant get very close with it

Your guna love it

[wouter]

Spud, thanks for the advice mate, will check out those Sigma lenses

Dickster, thanks dude, yeah, she's a good gal indeed ^^. Will take some pics of my (humid) mancave tomoz. Pitty the air is a bit moist in the cellar...I noticed yesterday when airbrushing there for the first time. Will need a moisture trap for me AB as well...

Just thought I'd share a bit more detail on my latest Evil-bay acquisition Esci's Leopard 2(A3- according to the instructions)







and for some detail shots;

i1179.photobucket.com/albums/x399/pod1610/002.jpg[/IMG yup -them is shovels molded onto the hull





As you can see just a bit soft on detail- still not quiet sure what I'm going to do with this.

[406 Silverado]

wow, that's a great camera Wouts. Happy B-day mucker

[paulh.]

;D ;D ;D ;D

[spud]

FINALLY!!!!! ;D

Customs opened it and prob dumped the packing and my invoice wich should have been in the box. and this is most likly the reson for the batter looking box



Woohoo

[spud]

thanks Chris ;D

Boo ive hear of them companys, it could be somthing to look into but for teh ammount of times i buy from lucky model i dont think it would be worth it and this is only the first time customs have looked in any box ive shipped in

[jackh.]

Nice car Rob .

Great camera Wouter .

Nice buys lads.

See what the postal service delivered today from Wonderland Models.

[spud]

Ohh ive been tempted by that Abrams my self but it being Italeri puts me off

[jackh.]

Chriss - Thanks

Spud - You shouldn't it's not a bad kit, you might want to read this comparison: vodnik.republika.pl/pages/m1-comparison/m1comp1.htm

[spud]

[jackh.]

jackwagon - Yes I was thinking in the lines of a dio with both (hoping to find a photo showing them together (no luck yet ) but then there's always artistic freedom ((lol)) ;D). A dual M1 blog could be fun mate.

[spud]

i need to check evil bay for some Friullies because on the Friull site Ireland is missing from the country list and i cant order from them.. abd i refuse to pay 35 euro when i can get them for 27

[spud]

well this arived today Black Primer, had to get it on ebay couldnt find it anyplace else. and also this simulated barbed wire looks cool 5mts for less than £3 it should last a while,



Still waiting for my Aribrush parts ......

Erm...... that's an interesting looking kit Paul - all I can say is I'm glad yer told us what it was, I was still trying to work it out!!!! Good luck with that one bud It'd look good loaded on the back of a Faun completely tarped over!!!!!

Having had a good look over this last night I think your idea is probalby the best...thing for it tbh jackwagon - there is just no farkin worthwhile detail at all
Mind you maybe it might be worth trying to wreck it- got plenty of detailed reference pics [ both internals & externals]so might give that a try.

Some white stuff on the way I think

What ever happens I 'll try and salvage the link & length tracks- but need to check if they will fit any of the other Leos in the stash
