Need to post it as a url

I found a fiberglass brush pen for cheaper than the fiberglass replacements on eBay. The book is from a Facebook auction:

Be careful wit that fiberglass pen, it will shed tiny glass shards all over what you are scratching on, and whatever is underneath. Those little shards hurt when you get them in your fingers and can be hard to find so you can get it out. Set some paper underneath that you can fold up and toss before using.

(do you have to ask me how I know?)

Oh, I know! I always wear gloves and glasses when soldering. I rarely use the pen because of the issues with shards. Nice tip about the paper, I simply used the cutting mat but paper is more controlled.

Wow, great acquisitions guys! Lots of great stuff.

Now I finally have some time to post what I got recently. I attended the San Diego Comicon a couple weekends ago where I got to see a ton of fantastic stuff. Thanks to a bonus I got on a job just before Comicon; I was able to pickup some great new models.


I'll start first with the tools I got form one of the artist booths: some fine tipped brushes. They were cheaper than at an art store. The guy threw in the ink for free:

Next I went to the Blue Fin booth where they had a ton of Gundam and Star Wars models. They were also showing the new 1/72 scale Millennium Falcon that Bandai is bringing out soon. I picked up these three; all in 1/72 scale:

Finally, I went to the Mobius Models booth where I was able to pick up my best acquisition at this Comicon.

This is the Mobius Models Comicon Exclusive Limited Signature Edition Signed model of Frazetta's Death Dealer:

The image you see is the sleeve that covers the box that declares this a limited Signature Edition. On the back is the three signatures of Frank Frazetta Jr.; Jeff Yagher, the sculptor who created this model; and Frank Winspur, the President of Mobius Models. This also has the Official Comicon 2017 Exclusive seal on it. I bought Number 29 of only 120 of these signature kits:

This model also came with the following limited edition pin:

Oh yeah, I'm thrilled with this haul from Comicon! I'll probably put a halt to my spending for awhile now; I need to focus on getting some more models finished.

Thanks for looking in!
