I went to SMW yesterday with a list of kits I wanted. The Airfix Gnat....Decals for my Shack......Kittyhawk F-35B....Got the first 2, but could I get an F-35B anywhere? No! An A and a C no problem, but not a single B! So I spent my money on other things....
Kits are all 1/48

Aeroclub Shack decals £18

Nice haul!

Over the weekend I added a Flying Boxcar, a Lightning F.1, another Hunter T.7, a couple of 109's, an F100 and a Wyvern to the stash...

Was going back to the kit swap to get an Italeri Hawkeye for £35, but it was closed when I got back :(

Well, I went to Telford with a very limited budget, thinking that I wouldn't really enjoy myself because of it,
but I found that it made me focus on what I really wanted, so I came away with an assortment of kits, some paint
and some sanding sticks.I had intended to rectify the lack of American WW2 fighter aircraft in my collection
The kitswap produced a Hellcat from Academy, and a Revell P-47D. Various traders then sold me a
HobbyBoss Airacobra and Wildcat, Revell Fokker Dr.1, a SMER Fieseler Storch, a Novo Westland Lysander, and a Heller
Fouga Magister (in a special edition with Irish Air Corps decals!) Total spent £45! I realised that if I'd had 2x or 3x the money,
I wouldn't have had 2x or 3x as much enjoyment . . .
If I'd had more money, I'd have bought a P-38 Lightning, a spray booth at £65, a FROG or Novo Whitley (£30 Frog boxed, £20 Novo unboxed, no
decals . . .) and a Shackleton (Revell £30)
Mostly going back to my 1/72 WW2 modelling roots . . .
And I like Fouga Magisters, and the Fokker triplane?- That's just to complete my collection of little Fokkers! . . .

I saw a few that I'd wished I'd picked up on the first run round. Italeri Storch for one. I passed on the 4 engine Revellagawa Arado 234 as I am just finishing one. Again, wish I had now as it was only £14.

Stop it, stop it, stop it. I'm intensely jealous as nothing must pass my doorstep until the New Year.

My 2 lots of mig-21 overtree 'small parts' turned up so now I can make the most of the 3 kit options in the 'silver arrows' kit from Eduard.

Oh and my free PE bat as well :grin:
