What did you get at the Hobby Shop today?


Recommended Posts

I'm on a Russian kick.

Su-15 Flagon A

Su-15UM Flagon G

Can anyone confirm:

Flagon A + cranked wings (from G kit) + ogival nose (from G kit) = Flagon F

Flagon G + straight wings (from A kit) + conical nose (from A kit) = Flagon C

I was given a 1/48 Trumpeter Wellington to build on commission. Dang this sucker is A LOT BIGGER then I thought it would be. I should have charged a LOT more, but all ready gave my price.

Oh well, I dont build to make a profit. :crying:

"L"HS had a consignment of odd stuff.

Picked up Contrails 1/72 Blackburn Iris III -- a 'tween wars Brit flying boat -- vacuform ... appears to by about 13-year old kit. Decals are poor, instructions vague, but all sorts of parts included (strutz, etc) so it ought to build up nice one of these days ...

At the BX here on base, I bought some enamel paint thinner. But that's not the only thing I got. The BX has a small selection of models (mainly Italeri) and there were two kits that all these price tags on them. It turns out that a 1/72nd scale Tomcat and 1/48 F-15 were 75% off!!! Without hesitation, they were bought. I decided I'd use the Tomcat as a practice model for my weathering. $3.75 for a Tomcat, what a deal!!!!

Original-release Monogram 1/48 B-24J, P-51D, and P-47D! All for $20.

Gotta love the fact that the LHS dabbles in the second-hand kit market without really knowing anything about the actual value of the kits! :D

More options for me for the upcoming Monogram Group Build! :woo:

:cheers:
