Well, last night and next Monday night is bank holidays, which I get paid an 100 a pop extra for.....

Try to stay economical until pay day on the 7th.....

very nice, all i get for all public holidays is a day off in leui which ends up being taken at the hotels conveniance most of the time,

i'm looking at getting an airbrush and compressor next payday (wife willing)

Really nice purchases.

Great selection of great kits there mate. Good job you did that garage conversion too - looks like you'll need the room!
BTW, Jan already knows, but Relish Models have the Tamiya Lanc at £58 - I'm very seriously tempted. Now, if I knock through into the roof space, tunnel through to next door as well.......

going to get a lot more practice before i tackle something as big as a 1/48 Lanc, but i still might ask for one as a birthday pressie, also like the look of the Tallboy version but thats even more expensive !!!!

the grandslam one comes with the motors does the tallboy one? that would explain the price increase

i might be talking about the same kit as i was just going from memory, which isnt always great

i've just checked and i was, i meant the "Grand slam" with the electric motors

Now building the grand-slam or tallboy would be a fun build.

bring it on big boy

Thankfully, the BI/BIII doesn't have the gimmicky electric motors, but scale Merlins instead. But, if required, motors can be bought and hooked up for a lot, lot less than Tamiya would charge.

However tempting the Tallboy variant is, it's too much of the Queens best folding....












Btw, is there a Lancaster GB in the making here??

 

[rochie]

yeah four entries, you, me, Terry and Ian lanc

 

[Lucky13]

That's enough to ruin a few dams, isn't it?

 

[B-17engineer]

[B-17engineer]
