More nice buys there guys....some real beauties! The Viper builds up very nicely Robbo Well much to my surprise Santa turned up early Chez Nemo..... It turns out it wasn't so much Santa as me ol' mucker ChrisB - he'd helped me clear my wingy stash recently and in return arranged for this beauty to be delivered!! So it looks like 2018 will finally be the year of the Bovvy Cent..... Cheers matey

Wow, nice pick up Robbo...
I love the Frogfoot and a Bovi Cent too! Happy days for everyone!
Not much going on here as I’ve lost my workbench and PC for the foreseeable future. So there won’t be much coming from me for a while. I hope I can get all the issues sorted early in the New Year, sooner if I can somehow work it out quicker. As a result I’m going to take a backward step from the forums and Social Media, just to protect myself a bit, from the depression caused by the frustration of seeing everyone else building and being unable myself. When I build or paint, it does keep the whole depression/anxiety cycle at bay. The only issue I can see is the anxiety that I usually get after a layoff and trying to get back started.

My family is sort of spread around several States so we usually have a family get-together the weekend before Christmas. That way my siblings' families can spend the actual Christmas at their own homes. I usually make a list and relatives cherry-pick items. This is the model related stuff that was picked. I'm always up for a female figure set...I just have to start using them. This one actually comes with 5 figures. For some reason they didn't illustrate the woman doing her makeup on the box art. I'm still hoping to do a Homecoming Diorama some day...maybe this will be used there. This wasn't a priority item for me, but it was a gift. This is probably going to find itself used for the VAL stuff. Russian prisoners being "processed". Ya gotta love the little guy's "what you talking about Willis" face. I went with the E10...it's so ugly it's cute. This will be part of the Valkyrie Division stuff. Another Valkyrie Division vehicle. And an old kit. This will probably be built as a Privateer tank....I'm thinking a Persian based unit. Or maybe a western backed Middle Eastern unit based out of Lebanon.

Nice ones Alex.
I remember I had some problems with the E-10 sproket and the tension of the track. and I changed the gun too. I went for a Russian 152mm from a spare JSU...
I also think that Patton has an engine. It's a very easy kit.

John, thanks for the warning. Trumpy sent three sets of tracks with the E-10....1 indie tracks and 2 rubberband sets (early & late). I've still got to dig in to the kit and see how I want to build it.
The Patton has a engine compartment, engine, and trans. It's an older kit but still looks pretty nice. The review at Missing-Lynx says it's Italeri's best kit. I'm looking forward to building it.
Ade, hopefully things settle down for you.

@ Adrian, hang in ther my friend. Things will improve, we will be here no worries, just get better step by step. @ Alex I had the problem with the rubberband tracks, can't remember which. The instructions were a bit vague on which options to choose, well it's a PaperPanzer what could we expect The Patton is a great kit. At the time it was the only game in town.

Nice buys Alex, the Italeri M47 was the best of the best when released back then . It still holds good today even against the new versions IMHO. As for the E10, well everyone should have at least one in the stash or collection .
