Well, that explains a lot, Prof! Kinda like a Pocher kit? I guess but with Tamiya's ease of build. It's nowhere near as complex as a Pocher kit and doesn't have the same level of detail but with care, should look pretty decent when done. Opportunities exist to further detail it if you wish, I might address a couple of shortfalls depending on how I feel. Biggest decision is going to be what colour I paint it!  |

Decisions, decisions... Deep maroon would look cool!!! Yep, worth considering. I'm keen to avoid British Racing Green, Bright Red, Black, any Silver or Grey and Gold, apart from that, all good. |

Last Sunday I was at the Pasadena Valleycon and was able to win the following raffle prizes: One of the last prizes available near the end of the raffle so I grabbed it:  Since George had model railroading going on, he added some railroad accessories to the raffle:    Now I have enough buildings to build a small town! LOL! I spent the rest of my birthday money in the vendor room but was only able to buy these two models:   Now that I have that second Death Dealer, I can start building that one and preserve my San Diego Comicon exclusive! The next day, I found this package in my mailbox from James:  Thanks James! Now to figure out what version to do. Man, I want two more now! LOL! Finally, my AMPS club met at Brookhurst Hobbies where I got to use my Brookhurst Hobbies Gift Card to help purchase this:  Well, that's it for now. I'll be busy for awhile just working on some of these. I did start some of them; you'll see them in the "Maddog Manufacturing" Thread. Okay, now back to the bench..... |
