...was the question to which I had a fraction of a secon to answer. Opted not to kill the poor inocent bugger who just happened to run accross the street where I was driving with bunch of models on a board on the front seat as we were moving to a new house last week. It was late in the afternoon, not much trafic and I was driving slowly to minimize the bumps and road vibrations. I knew that moving models is not about moving them undamaged but moving them with the least ammount of damage. So the models slid from the passanger seat on the floor and looked like this
At first I was mortified and thought that the casualty count will be huge and a total loss of vehicles and equipment. To my big surprise, it wasn't that bad. The BT-7 was undamaged and so was the Kubelwagen. The Soviet truck (upper left) was badly damaged but very much repairable, an SAS jeep lost a machinegun and so did the Italian tank. A german officer lost his arm, but that is what you get when you always point your finger somewhere . The Land Rover also lost few small pieces and I was surprised to see that its rear view mirrors were intact. All in all, not bad and a happy live squirel.
The rest of the transport went quite well, minor or no dammage. And I am moving into a new and improved modeling cave which will take few weeks to set up as there are boxes everywhere.
Happy modeling...
