I have that Italeri kit (in the box) with the US Marines Coming ashore. I guess now I know what the model is supposed to look like. I have some great ideas for a beach landing (after I finish my German armor stint)
I don’t know about Mandarin, but in Japanese it’d be something like “su, sugoi!!” (note stuttering effect emphasizing the “holy %#&” factor.)
My only regret is that my Dragon M4A3E8 JGSDF Sherman didn’t make the show in time. It was finished and ready to go, but they held the contest on a Friday afternoon! I thought it was on Saturday! So I brought it in Friday night, after the judging…too bad.
Not that I had a chance of winning, but at least it coulda been in the pictures!
Just a pure lack of technical acuity! And digital photos.
HOWEVER, I did just have a bunch of stuff photographed digitally (including the EZ8) and shall post pix like a banshee in the very near future!
By the way, where’s the best place to get hosted? I know a coupla fine forum members here are hosting, but I forgot who…I’ll investigate.
