What Did You Get For Christmas Then?
Discussion
Wingnut Wings SE.5a for me! Utterly, utterly, brilliant kit at an unbelievably low price. Makes you pround to be Briti...oh hang on they're from New Zealand.
Ran the old Nanda Swift Nitro car around the car park and 'garden' at work on the 24th. Smashed a wheel and a front suspension mount, but soon had it repaired. Excellent fun in the snow and ice.

I put on my Facebook that I wanted a Tamiya Evo X on a Df-03re chassis..... Well it appears that my better half takes note...because Father Christmas delivered it !!!
Built the base nw and it's up and running, just doing the shell now. Only ever built buggies before and so cutting out a car is a bit of a challenge...
Pics later....

Tamiya 1/48 Swordfish
Nice airbrush
Didnt get the Vallejo paints that I asked for so I ordered a stack 2 days ago.
Dr Gn, I'm very envious of the Wingnut SE5a, I will get one of their kits even though I planned to keep to 1/48 scale
You won't be disappointed I guarantee that much! (especially if you are lucky enough to avoid paying import duty!). Actually you should beware of this, many people get stung for about an additional £25 by customs.Nice airbrush

I also read somewhere that W.W. free postage offer would not last forever...
Looking forward to seeing the Swordfish, which is no doubt another superb kit?
finished stickering up the Abarth last night. Jeebus, it's fiddly.
front wheels were rubbing slightly so need to raise the front a tad and touch up the paint.
other than that, pretty impressed for my first build - oh, and the engine's a nice touch.
Apologies for the phone-pics. will try and get some better ones later on.
