My birthday haul.

Some of the most fun I've had in my years of building were gotten from my wife as a gift. Happy birthday. Still need our NHL though.....

You luck dog, Bish!  You got an 0/400!  I've been waiting for sooo long until the re-release. :)  I just put one on Pre-order today at my not-so LHS.  They aren't available in the US yet.

Very nice haul, gratz!

Thanks guys. Watchmann, i am not to familiar with anything WW1. Is this is a new kit or a re release. It does look rather nice.

Another birthday boy. Mines tommorow (Monday) and dad gave me the airfix 48 scale spitfire mk.I

Hence the Scorpio, i did wounder.

happy birthday for Monday mikey.

lol wonder no more my friend. Same to you Bish.

It's a re-release.  According to VintageAirfix.com, it was first issue was in 1985.

I've been waiting over a year since I heard it was coming back.

Excited!

Oh, yeah, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 

Nice haul....I have one of those 109F-4's....I plan to build it up as an F-2, though.

Happy birthday,

Hutch

Thanks guys. Watchmen, no doubt it will be over your side of the pond very soon. I don't think its been out very long over here.

Hutch, my 32nd stash is juts a small select number of German aircraft, as i don't want to deflect from 72nd. So this is the last of 3 109's i am getting and i wanted this for the Marseille markings. I think i will do the Sept 42 aircraft when i get round to it. Any idea when you will do yours.

Great haul! I really like the look of that Handley Page! Will add that to my list...

Happy birthday!    I am currently working on that HMS Victorious.  I sanded off the armor plating on the hull per the FSM crew saying the scale is too small to notice and it shouldnt be there.  Its been a few months ..year... and im still on the first few steps.  I will post pictures when photobucket is working.  I really wish I knew why PB isnt working for me.

Photobucket has just had a MAJOR overhaul. That could be the problem?

Sub, its a nice looking kit. It might even convince me to do other WW1 aircraft.

Ripcord, if you are useing the new PB, i would suggest switching back to the old. The new one is a pain in the butt. Look forward to seweing the pics, and the tip about the armour is noted.

Happy Birthday Bish!

Looks like a great haul - the WWI looks great, but would be waaaaay out of my comfort zone too!  I hope you post some WIP pics of it.

Nice pick up on the 109 too.

I haven't decided when I will build mine.  I am almost finished with my 1:32 P-51B and was looking to do the 109 in a winter scheme.  I may just make this my next project....when do you plan on starting yours?

Hutch

Thanks. Chris, i think it will be some challenge especially as i am used to monoplanes. The only bi-plane i have built was a swordfish many years ago. I will deffinatly be posting pics when i build it, probably early in the new year.

Hutch, it will be a while before i build the 109. I haven't built a 32nd kit yet, just been building up a small stash. My main issue now is display space, i am running out for the kits i am building. Once i solve that, i want to get some 32nd built. I reckon the 109 will be a couple of years away yet.

Now that I have photobucket working....there are way lots of pics, so can I just post the link until I start process on it again?

Some nice photo's there ripcord, thanks for shareing those.

Nice haul and Happy Birthday!   That Hasegawa 109 will build up nicely and you only need about 1-square foot of space to display it- they look great hanging on the wall.

Happy Birthday, Bish and Scorpiomikey!  If you're anything like me, it'll be another birthday before you get them done.  Models--the gifts that keep on giving.

lol well, i got 1 kit so far. My desk should be set up by weeks end. (Hopefully tonight) Ive 2 kits to sort out before i get onto the spit, but itle be done before next birthday.

Good, you can put it forward for the GB i am trying to drum up interest in.

Thanks check, your right about that.

which one would that be?

It was just an idea my other half came up with when i said you and i had posted pics of our pressies.

dw, found it, put my name in lol.

I thought you might lol

Too bad it will be a while....could have started a mini GB!   Still, I may start mine soon, since I do not know what I am going to build next.
