My cat is crazy, just like me. Lil bastard was eating my sauerkraut.
Not like he doesn't have enough food and treats.

The Jethro Tull does have the original inserts. So that makes it a better score.

Few new additions. Done buying for awhile. Place I get these is over priced.

New additions. Blackfoot had no inner sleeve but sound great. Jethro has an inner sleeve but it's not original. Need to find that one. Sabbath was the most expensive, because of course it was.
All sound great. Now to get a decent pair of speakers.

Tried using ink to make a wash for my plane. Parts kept falling off as I tried to wash it. Ink dried so fast it "stained" the paint. If I tried cleaning it up while it was wet, it removed the wash from the panel lines. When the cowl fell off, I boxed it back up. Now I'm in a shitty mood

Took a few days PTO to get some things around the house done and drop some of the wife's stuff off at Goodwill. Came across some pewter miniatures her and I did when we first got together back in 2005. Our goal was to build a chess set, but it never came to fruition.

It's amazing the type of damage a forgotten napkin in the pants pocket will do to a load of laundry.

Almost ready for primer. Need to take it all apart, do a final sanding where needed, get spare tracks together. Really liking this Tamiya kit.

Looks like they removed the post. I have an idea of what it may be about, based on comments here. But w/o reading it in full.... All of my armor is German. But then, I just started with armor builds.

Here's one for you history buffs. What does ther term/word Oscha. Mean in German? I've seen a lot of German tank commanders with this. Everything I've found online as far as ranks go, don't have this listed

Got me a package in the mail. Was able to get it for under 100. I built the tank on the cover and will be building more from in the book. Also working on the diorama.

Don't eBay at 2am. I now own a set of really nice Archer dry rub transfers in 1/72 scale because I didn't catch it in the description. I need 1/35 scale

I was lucky Sunday night and found a copy of this on eBay for under $100. So i snagged it. That is the tank i researched for quite some time. Didn't realize the images were in the quarry. thought they were taken prior to it being moved.

by chance, does anyone have a spare drivers hatch for a Dragon kit, Panther G late production model? Trying to fix the "upside down" issue on mine, and the broke at the hinge and the remainder needed to be cut off the rest of the model.

I like it because it definitely helps. Now I'm second guessing my current build. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜ญ.

Something was bugging me about it though, on the Panther. I had to go back and look. No one caught this in 2 previous shows or anyone looking at it online. Drivers hatch is inside out!!!
Now I have to try and fix it before it's added to the dio. ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ
