My brother is a professional woodworker and he made me these 2 foot wide by 4 foot tall shelves to organize my paints. They are made from furniture grade Baltic birch plywood and were cut using a CNC milling machine. This will make a huge impact on organizing my space and I'm very grateful to my bro! :D

I've been buying bipes. Lots of them. Mostly 1/48 Eduard, Roden with a couple of other makes. Not seen here are the WNW ones I've got or are on their way. I think I have a problem...but that'll be sorted as I said earlier I'm selling lots of other stuff to make up for these new arrivals. ::)

Nice collection Toby!  I would also recommend that you order one of the GasPatch Models Salmson 2a2 kits, probably the best 1/48 scale WW1 kit ever!

I agree, Toby.  An absolute must-have for any 1/48 scale builder.
Cheers,

It's on my list. Not sure which one though. Perhaps I'll get all of them.

Well I went out on a limb and ordered me some Wingnut Wings Kits a few weeks ago for X-mas and I received them today. YEAH!!! :) But I got a lump of coal in one of the kits. My order consumed of:

Felixstowe F.2a and Hansa-Brandenburg W. 29
Fokker D. VII (Alb)
Albatros D. Va (OAW)
Hans-Brandenburg W.12
Gotta G. IV
Samson 2-A2 "USAS"

I was going to put them away with out looking at at least one of them. So I took a peek at the Felixstowe and something didn't look right. So I grab the instruction and started checking the list. I was right, something wasn't right; I'm missing all but one Sprue for the W.29. WHAT!!! you heard me, I'm missing all but the guns.  So I shot of an e-mail to Wingnut Wings which won't get answered until they come back from the Holidays. Oh well :(

So I went and check all the other kits and they're all present and accounted for. Never heard of the company missing an entire kit. I bet with the influx of orders during this time of year, somethings got missed. Just wondering what they'll do.

Any who, in a few weeks I'll be casting my second order with them.

A great haul Ollie and I'm sure that Wingnuts will come good with whatever parts are missing, even if it is nearly a complete kit ???

Hope everyone had a great Christmas. I did very well. My oldest got me a neat gun I probably would not have bought. Should provide some hours of research. My youngest son surprised me with an awesome figure vignette and I surprised me with a new WNW kit from my wife lol.
