Finally the first is here
On the way a UH-1H, waiting to see if I've won a Jaguar T2, AH-64A, F-4E, F4-EJ, F-15E, and F/A-18A. All from the same series. Nerdy!

Wahey :!:
I'd love to be "allowed" to make those again but wife and 2 small kids prevent
At one stage I had most of the (then) current range of aircraft and AFVs - all by Tamiya, as well as a couple of battleships Iowa/New jersey being the best/most fun one to build

Yay!
Mine keeps costing more and more money.
Initially got the kit for a tenner, then bought an aribrush for another £20, then spent another £30 the other day on paint :roll:0 -
Excellent choice - I have a 'staffel' of 1:32 Hasegawa Bf 109s going from an Emil up to a pair of Gustavs (G-4 and G-16).
Takes ages to get them as Hasegawa only build them in small batches now - it took almost a year to get my G-4 after ordering it...
My German relatives are slightly baffled as to why I have 'Nazi' aeroplanes on the living-room shelves...
To those who don't get model-making: you know that saying - men are just boys, but taller?
Well it's true - so what do you expect?
Some might say that playing around on bicycles in the mud is pretty juvenile as well...0 -

hmm spend so far is about £30 on paint and sables from ebay, and another £30 on tools and stuff from modelhobbies.co.uk. Can't do anything until the microset and microsol turn up though.Visit Clacton during the School holidays - it's like a never ending freak show.
