Various New Purchases
Well this is bad, I started this year with a new years resolution not to buy any more models until I had completed at least *SOME* of them... fat chance! Well below is a list of stuff I have recently bought...
Well this model was on sale over at Hannants I think it was near the £8 mark, can't remember. I have got this one on order at LuckyModel, but that has nearly been on order for year and half and they will not refund me the money. So I thought sod it, I got it there and then. The kit inside looks good, but I will not be doing it in the box art colour, totally boring. Might look at Pakistani colours or something... dunno yet.
Now this one is for two projects I will be doing soon on Britmodeller. I got one earmarked for the captured Spitfire, the dark green and yellow one. I have the decals for it somewhere, but typically I can not find it. The other kit is earmarked for the D-Day GB on Britmodeller, I will be making one of the Spitfires that carried beer across the channel for the pilots and whatnot. I will need to order the beer barrel kit from Brengun as well as a cockpit, which strangely enough, there isn't one at all in the kit. :\
Got this one to justify a paint order from Scale Model Shop, I think I only ordered 2 pots of paint that I needed so I added this to make it up. Only cost me £8, which is cheaper than some 1/72 kits out there! I want to make it into the M4 that I drive in WoT's with the 105mm cannon on it, got to love that derp gun. Will actually have to look into the differences first tho. The turret and hull look a little different from memory.
I have wanted this kit since I saw Macross Zero and that was going to be made way back in... 2001? Whenever Zero was released and fansubbed. Loved playing the Destroid part with the sub on full power, the house shakes :D I got this model for a lot cheaper than it was being sold on eBay for. It originally cost £25, but I got an email from Ebay giving me a £10 voucher, and it worked so I got this model for £15 and no shipping either. Not bad considering from Japan it costs just over £13.
I got this one straight from Japan, HLJ. Think I used this to bulk out an order of Sweet models, love the colours of it. Now it looks like CAG aircraft to me, and normally I do not like CAG aircraft but this one works for me. :) Really looking forward to building this one. Maybe I should finish the VF-1S first tho??
Saw a guy on Britmodeller make the F-16 version of the iDOLM@STER, I liked the model alot. There is a STGB coming up on Britmodeller for the F-14. I asked if I was allowed to do this (sorta connected to Ace Combat as they are in it) and I am, so I will be doing this. Thinking of getting some metallic paint for it. I'm still after the Sakura Tomcat (Zipzang I think it's called) but I do not want to pay £40 for it!. I will have to get a picture later on of it, but the decals are on two A4 sized pictures.
This is the other iDOLM@STER model I purchased, still not sure why... I guess I just wanna make a model of the Nighthawk. Like the F-14 there is a loads of decals on this one... so looking forward to that! That decal of the girl will test my patience. But I am looking forward to making this one. Will be something different.
PEACE!
