I wanted this kit ever since I saw late Robert Jan(Speedy J) building the original Bolddivision one (resin).
Sadly, Robert Jan didn’t finish his build- he passed away Nov. 4th.
Whenever I build this kit, my build will be dedicated to him.
After being on my wishlist for more than 2 years, I received this small jewel as a birthday present from my modelling buddies.
I gathered some information and I intend to open up both engine covers and show both engines.
I’m not a “wingy thing” modeller, but I found both tools to be very usefull when modelling my R-142N radio truck:
-The Rivet Maker is perfect for doing lines of small size rivets, it works not only on styrene, but also on thin(0.1 mm) brass sheet,
-The Scriber can be used- among other tasks- to cut oval corners.
I’ve had this crazy idea of designing photo-etch for an ST-26, the bridgelayer variant of the T-26. I’ve got the plans, and now the donor kit. Just need the time, and maybe a clean workbench
Thanks to my employer (part one): as “thank you” for the work done in 2020, we got a voucher for a webshop which also acts as a intermediate for a couple of modelshops.
Not a big kit, both in part numbers or in size but interesting nonetheless…
Not by the mailman but by SHMBO, and a replacement of what was a long time coming… In April (!) I ordered tracks for my Mörser Karl made by Friul, but they don’t seem to want to sell anymore through resellers, as they do not respond at all to any inquiries. As a result my LHS switched to Masterclub. And I finally got them!
