I usually get my MiniArt kits from a Hong Kong eBay seller but these are straight from the Ukraine:

This is the one I was waiting for and it is insanely detailed!

I hoped the dog (seen on the upper right with the crew) was included but it isn't. however, like Dragon's Orange series, this is their older kit with the crew and link to link tracks plus new decals.

A fantastic bus with many post-war schemes.

Nice James! I'm planning on getting the Modelcollect model of that tank in 1/72 scale soon. Just need to get paid again. Looking forward to seeing that get started.

I really want to get that field piece. Very cool!

I was using an old particle wood dresser to store various modeling supplies and tools. The drawer bottoms were slipping so I started looking for a replacement. I found this 11 drawer toolbox from Harbor Freight for $200 and then received a coupon in an email that knocked the price down to $160.

The quality is pretty good and to my surprise the drawers were lined with a condensed foam liner. I took one of those attorney magnets that are stuck to new phone books and made some labels so I can find everything.

Here's the coupon for anybody who wants to get one.

I have one of those also Kenny. It isn't a bad unit, but be advised that the bottom where the casters mount isn't all that stout. When I moved to my current place the stupid movers bent the bottom.
I unloaded it and straightened the sheet metal bottom and built some reinforments out of 1/8 thick aluminum angle and screwed it all back together. Now it is pretty stout.

Hate it when they make stuff a bit too thin to actually hold up. The upper boxes are quite nice however, just the bottom one where the casters mount.

I also got a set of masks from Kenny (Gator's Masks) but I don't know if they are for me to try, if they are ready for sale, or some other reason. So, I didn't take any photos yet but am certainly going to try them out on my Tamiya F-16CJ.

Regards and thanks Kenny,

First off, thank you again! Obviously, it is something (the markings) which I am interested in and will therefore review them since you seem ready to sell them. My Tamiya kit is the 72nd scale item which I haven't started since I've yet to get my customary detail sets for it but now it is higher on my to-do list.
