Deliriously happy! I received a package from Hubert (Dewertus):

Plenty of these superb instrument panels for my kit...

Lots of Models has a sale going on now where everything you see here I paid 50% off and free shipping!

Last, I bought these cocktail stirrers from Sabot Publications...

Note the T-34-85 barrel?

I got my hands on an elusive set of HS-6 decals (1/72) for my CVW-11 collection build. :yipee

Double bonus...there are decals for 2 aircraft! So I'm covered for both the SH-60F & the HH-60H.

Actually, more like Thank you Hubert!

As for the small scale decals, you may get a belated birthday gift as I found some sheets I won't use.

Hey Saul,

While there is a bit on the aircraft, it is not likely to replace my Ali d'Italia monograph.

However, it details the aircraft's involvement in the September Campaign as well as contemporary aircraft it came across such as the Lublin XIII floatplane. Best of all (for me) there is a profile of the CANT 506 which was captured and used by the Poles!

Well got in some more stuff today. Yesterday got some decals so I can build a Panzer 2C medical officers tank as per the picture on the last book I reviewed. Today I got a Ta 152H-1 from Gary. One of my favourite flavours of FW 190. It was named after the designer Kurt Tank. And using a gift certificate from Mike ( I traded the recipient a tank for it ) I got a Nymert, a new Meng Rocket launcher I didnt know about previously, and a s.Ig. 33 with crew. See how that works out.

Nice scores James! Interesting, I never built a Ta-152 myself. I'll be watching yours when you start it up. That figure is going to be highly interesting as well to be sure.

Is that dude holding the end of the field gun REALLY going to stand there when it goes off? LOL VBEG

Looks like a nice kit but I do wish that Dragon would make there figures in a bit more of an action pose.

Cheers

I dont know, they look oood to me. One laying in the gun, one ready to pull the trigger, Gun commander ready to let fire, One loader fusing a round while another waits. And I have seen guys piling on the trail when the ground is too hard or until the spade gets a good grip. In the following pic 2 are stepping on the spade and everyone else looks almost the same.

Te ZM 1/32 Ta-152 H1 is a nice looking kit James. I have the anime version that has a really nice drop tank with it. While the 152s didn't actually use a drop tank, the tank is the standard type like I have seen on other FW-190s.

Traded with a good friend and piggybacked on his orders while he was in Paris and ordering from Russia. The Vector A-20 cockpit interior is my second one (I have three kits). The New Penguin decals are for a sharkmouth BTR-80 and markings for Soviet Oil and Fuel tanks.

Flogged by the Fence! Squadron had a fantastic sale.

Hey there Saul.

Wil you be able to save those three broken chairs? Three broken out of four is pretty poor. Also looks like there's a fair bit of seam to clean up. Think you'll be abole to gett hem together?

Does the T-54-1 1947 kit have a full interior?

I like the looks of the German car.

Cheers

I already repaired one and informed the seller to see if I can get a replacement sprue. The others will be repaired as well.

Not the one you see above. This is my second T-34-1 Model 1947. The one I got in January is the full interior kit but it is missing the transmission, squirrel cage fan, and gearbox. The first two I can mock up from my Skif kits (see? They have a use!) and I am trying to get Chris Meddings (of Inside the Armour) to offer a limited run of the one he scratched. Sadly, he doesn't want to get into resin production anymore.

This is the full interior kit:

Excellent but, being realistic, very little of this interior is seen once built.

Saul does it come in the kit? If so you can mine from my T-54-2 as I probably wont build the engine compartment. Let me know.
