Latest Acquisitions
Well, here's my scores I got at Orangecon.
First off was a bunch of tools and accessories. The black case is supposed to hold sanding paper of various grits, but I may use it for holding sanding sticks too. I got it free for filling out a Tamiya questionnaire. Then there is the photo-etch kit of a maintenance stand I got for a couple bucks, along with some resin pup tents. The final thing that you can't see is a Tamiya weathering powder kit that I got in the raffle. They're all here:
Next up is an old kit of Auroras Boeing 737 in 1/72 scale. I'd been trying to get this for awhile, and I finally succeeded. Now to get some decals for this bird since the kit ones are pretty well shot:
I haven't forgotten my armor collection; I picked this one up as well. It is Revell of Germany's Boxer vehicle:
Next I was able to get the Dragon USS New York in 1/700 scale for about $20.00 from my friend Sean:
Finally, I got all these so I could finish my two Russian Armored Trains. These are models I'd ordered some time ago. My friend Dave was holding them until I got paid and then could pay him. These are the basic flatbeds first:
Followed by two cars with AA gun towers on them and two others carrying a truck, a gun and a tank:
Now I can really finish those Russian trains right!
Okay, that's all I have for today, so stay tuned. I'm hoping to start on a few of those flatbed cars tomorrow.
... but that may be considered a offence ... no I made the post
