It won't be a quick build but it'll be a pleasure being a new Tamiya kit. You'll have a ball I'm sure

A lot to look at in those pics. After the week I've had, I need to re-stock also. Probably should get some of that All weather stuff, then I know I'll have it covered.

I have a large number of acquisitions to show to finish out the year. A raffle winner, two purchases; one was an early Christmas present, and the rest were Distressed Kit Auction winnings thanks to a client who paid for a commission. Okay, let's get started.. My raffle winner from the November IPMS meeting: Now my purchases, this one was bought so I can finish my SCUD C truck with the correct launcher arms: And my early Christmas present: And now for all my Distressed Kit Auction winnings. We'll start with the models. Remember I got almost all these for one or two bucks each, mostly because nobody else was bidding on them: These were bundled because they were the same kit and there was some question as to whether one or both were complete: I got this for the canopy as well as other accessories so I can finish a nine-year-old shelf queen: I probably already have one built, but this is a cool looking plane: Finally, at least for the models, there are six 1/72 scale vehicles here: four wargame kits already assembled and two GAZ AAA tracks inside the white box that need to be built: And now, here is where I spent real money; mostly because I wanted the tools and paints. These are all from a guy who just decided he was done with the hobby and literally pulled everything off his desk and packed it into boxes to donate to our club president. Our president then sorted them into associated groups to sell as package deals. These are the packages I got: We'll start with something simple: It might not look like much, but this box is full of treasures: there's even a wire stripper inside for stripping the wires to use on the models. Next up: I got those tools for the organizer tray and to use. Still, a ton of useful tools; the non-toxic glue notwithstanding.... More tools and brushes: One of my favorite packages: And now for the paints and other supplies. These packages have mostly Vallejo paints, some Mig paints and a number of gloss and dull varnishes along with a number of other items: And the final paint set is this Vallejo set, which I also got for the stand: Well, that completes the haul for this month, and most probably the year. I don't see myself getting any more Christmas money to spend on myself, but at least I'm loaded for bear for the new year. Oh, and for those who are curious; I paid $63.00 total for everything I got in the Distressed Kit Auction listed in this post.

Lurvly Alex, specially the F8 The F8 was a surprise...I rolled the dice on it when I put it on my Gift Wish List. It looks quite nice and can't wait to get to hacking on it. They are pretty well priced so if it goes good I might be back on the StuG-wagon. I probably should add one of the Takom Panzer IIIs to the next order list as well.

Got a £15 Amazon voucher so picked this up £14.99 with all the tapes. Not Tamiya but should be ok

Nice covers, Mr. Boots! Robbo, I do the same thing. Most of those tapes on Amazon are just as good, if not better, than "hobby tape" and you get three times as much for the price.

Last shopping spree for the year. The space marine was free when you do a free painting trial in the warhammer shop.
