The M8 Greyhound kit is pretty nice too... enjoy!

Thanks Stik. The M8 does look nice, I didn't realise it had an interior. I shall look forward to building it.

Glad you approve of the books! I fancy doing some dioramas and thought I'd start with the Classics.

Thanks John!

This one should be a good build. I have a soft-spot for armoured cars and would like to build a few. Might be a good thing to cut your teeth on if you don't fancy tracks.

I love Hobby Lobby's 40% off model sales.

Nice.... I haven't bought a model kit there in a couple years. Always the same old, same old. I'll grab paint or tube glue if needed.

Some supplies and the book from a thrift store. $2

I'd grab all that for $2 too. Awesome haul, TJ !

This followed me home from the local hobby shop....needed some Tamiya paint and this would not leave me alone.



Got some of these. 3.25 or so a bottle from Blick Art Supplies. They are liquid watercolor inks. Brand is Aquafine from Daler & Rowney. Look to be handy for a lot of things.

That GPA is a great kit Lyle - you'll enjoy it!

Just the book was $2. Still great deal
