NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 26, 2020 Author Share Posted February 26, 2020 I understand. Well enjoy the tape and your building! 😉 😀 Out of interest, how long will those three packs of maskiing tape last? Untill the end of the year, before the end of this year (2020), or until next year (2021)? GNR-Gordon-4 (AF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T2B Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 My latest purchases which will last me far beyond May this year or even next! Firstly we have the Doolittle Raid B-25 Mitchell which is the last of the 2019 releases that were on my priority list./media/tinymce_upload/2da1fb8d12150e725828822cb1e2ed91.jpgThen I decided to hit the PE with a few purchases, mainly from Brengun. /media/tinymce_upload/7dc7792460b9a42c7871e9c61dee1a60.jpg /media/tinymce_upload/ae85f97856fa6af6a72d50f312a0aa71.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/cdc3d99bce1199671c942c7c9c5b1fd9.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/5f6f83a34ba7cd0c3b7435bbdb7118fe.jpgI forgot to mention a couple of packs of CMK resin figures. And finally the Eduard Mig 21 Profipack to add to my recent Mig collection. /media/tinymce_upload/a0a1ff91784e3a74e272d0624f8acc46.jpgI hope you approve and hopefully you will see some in a build thread or two soon.... ish?

NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share Posted February 29, 2020 @james_mower Sorry about the late reply. 😀 Those three packs of masking tape, will last you until the end of May 2020? You must use a lot of the stuff then! 😆 😉 😀 I was genuinely expecting you to reply back, telling me that you will sue those three packs of masking tape up, before the end of the year, at the end of the year or even next year. Little did I know! 😆 😉 😀 GNR-Gorodn-4 (AF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWR-Gordon-4 Posted March 3, 2020 Author Share Posted March 3, 2020 @james_mower I do apologise for the late reply, once again. 😀 That makes sense and saves a lot of time removing roof, when you can use making tape to cover the area of a model that you do not want painted. @Ratch Let me guess how much that pack of paint brushes costed. 5.00?! 😆 😉 😀 GNR-Gordon-4 (AF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Symmons Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Hi AllBeen missing for the oast month due to internet problems and a few health issues, but now back again. Visited two LMS's and ended up with an ICM Bf 109e-4 Night fighter, first glacnce look good, very much on a par with the Airfis issue but sans crew. Also scored some, what I thought was 600 scale railings,second hand for R 175 ( that's about 9 pounds) but on closer inspection there were two frets at 1:350 scale. It includes some gun shields and some gratings or floater baskets? I've know idea what kit they're ment for but I can still use them on some of my #%) scale ships lurking in my stash. Quite a bargin I thought. Pic of the 109 & the PE fret /media/tinymce_upload/5ead31eceba78831381b82db3436b8e7.jpg /media/tinymce_upload/cb6057d2568756d7600cfeb1445edda5.jpg Remember we do this for fun John the Pom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWR-Gordon-4 Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 How old is that kit, Ratch? I can tell it's a vintage kit, due to the box artwork and the turquoise coloured Airfix logo. Good purchase, by the way. 😉 😀 GNR-Gordon-4 (AF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratch Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 HMS Ajax was available as F304S from 1965 in Type 3, red stripe box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWR-Gordon-4 Posted March 7, 2020 Author Share Posted March 7, 2020 That is a surpirse to me, as the box looks new to me, but on the tatty side. I assume the kit has been unbuilt though? GNR-Gordon-4 (AF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratch Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 The box is a Type 4D Box. Dual coloured Type 4 round logo. 1972 to 1975.If you want to know more about Airfix packaging look here:https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/airfixtributeforum/airfix-kit-packaging-index-t31593.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Symmons Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I think you'll find this is the original box art when first released. /media/tinymce_upload/3e6ce9d863de78ffdc42df0af287b599.jpg Remember we do this for fun John nthe Pom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted March 9, 2020 Author Share Posted March 9, 2020 I like that version as well. The box artwork mage is the same, but the Airfix logo is different and the H.M.S. Ajax 600 typeface wording is different. Thank you for posting that original box artwork, John the Pom (John Symmons). 😉 😀 GNR-Gordon-4 (AF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
