My stash
Hi guys,
sorry been busy with A Level work - very tiring and boring
I almost forgot about this until the other day about showing what I got from Telford and my current stash.
From Telford there was the Eduard Spitfire, the Fiat G.50, the dragon figures and the Avro DH.9 Ambulance - never seen any of them. as well as weathering wash from Florymodels, fake snow and a detailing brush
The Panther was for my birthday
and the Fiat CR42 was from Black Friday XD
all very nice kits
Some nice additions to the stash there 🙂
Thanks 🙂
Wow, Michael, a Roden DH9! You're brave...
That's what I'm worried about - all that rigging!
But the detail is very nice
some fun future projects there! which one is up next ? 🙂
I'm currently building one of those Eduards Spitfires (really enjoying it) ... but not sure which to do next? I like the CR42 - had to mend the engine covers because they snapped in post before I've started it - stupid royal mail!
Nice fishings, Michael, enjoy the builds of them
Thanks 🙂
Has anyone ever built one of the Roden DH family? I'm tempted by the Amurikan version.
hhhmmm ... not sure to be honest? This DH.9 is very nice to be honest and best thing was half price! 🙂 The fabric effect is good and gives you a choice for plastic to build either the ambulence or the military one (although the instructions and decals/markings are for only one)
Michael:
Good luck on the A-levels.
I asked about the DH 'cause I had the really old Aurora DH4 when I was young and had hair and inhibitions. I enjoyed it.
The struts were like tree limbs, looking back, and the level of detail is nothing like what Rodens has, I'm sure.
Anyhow, my vote is for the CR-42, there's a lot of schemes for that other than Italian. I see one of them on yours is the Hungarian "V" insignia.
Last of the fighting biplanes! Not to mention Gladiator, Avia 534, Swordfish...
Thanks about A-levels - they're a common pain to stop me from the modelling.
Yh, the Roden's kit is so nicely detailed - never built a Roden kit before, when having a look inside the box I was surprised at the detail.
I think I might move on to the CR42 when I'm "ready" XD There is in fact 4 Italian, 1 Belgian and the other Hungarian (don't know which one to do?!)
