Great haul. Interested to see how the tyre stencils turn out.
Re: Got something to share/show
Might do the combi hippy style or lowered with Fuchs wheels or similar, or both styles together.
What a pearler of a kit too, everything opens and shuts, lots of detail and the nicest set of instructions I've ever seen. Glossy pages and the parts are coloured the actual colour you're supposed to paint them.
I've always wanted the tyre stencils, mainly Advan for some reason, still want Hoosier, but have never seen them. You would think it would be easier and better to leave the centre of the stencil solid to make masking easier but nevermind, we shall see.
Scripts look nice, will have to see how nice they go on.

Re: Got something to share/show
The middle of the stencil was probably used to make another p.e part, waste-not want-not
P.e parts are pretty expensive to set-up i think I was quoted almost 400 Kangaroo-tokens just for a teeny tiny sprue. But that takes into account the tool costing and design and stuff.
Noice bunch bits you got there! I'd be interested to see how much more detail your 21 Winduh has over the Hasagewa one. If it's anything like the Revell G Beetle it'd be amazing!

Re: Got something to share/show
Weekend mock up will be posted tonight.
Until then....
Nothing exciting to see, but got a little bit done to the Nissan ute.
Attached a couple parts, tie down hooks


Removed rear window bars

Filled mirror mounting holes with the window bars.

Re: Got something to share/show
yes! It's the way the light is hitting it.
If it had a dent I would have mentioned it

Nothing some primer can’t fix. Raining here today so I don’t think there will be a painting going on
