Hi guys!! after a few days of waiting this moring I get the door and the “cartero” (mailman) have this things for me:
it´s an aires resin set for the hasegawa´s A4-M for wich I paid only 7 dollars!!! I bougth it in Megahobby, and the put the wrong prince on their web site, as the usual price is over 80 dolars! so what do you think?? hahaha. It´s a great detail set and have all kinds of goodies, cockpit, avionics bays, wheel well bays, airbrakes, cannons and so on. and I´m quite happy with this thing, and most happy considering the price I paid.
I plan convet the hasegawa bird in a A4-AR fightinghawk which is the most moder version of this aircraft, used by the Argentina´s air force today, with some changes as the incorporation of F-16 avionics and new radar and weapons sistems
I algo got an Aztec decals set I won in a modeling contest, and I must say this decals are amog the best I ever use (my gloster meteor have aztec decals).
the set if for a comemorative airplane of the Brazilian ari force, a colourf bird isn´t it?
Jeremias- I am SOOOOO envious! Any chance you might do a WIP thread on your Scooter? I’d love to follow along, might even help motivate me to finish my A-4M. [sigh]
I´don´t know the meaning of WIP, you mean like a step by step build? if is that no problem man! This week I hope finish may current skyhawk (an A4-C in a Malvinas -Falklands- scheme) and I will start my fightinghawk.
yes, but once the mail arrive to buenos aires the official mail make the delivery, so I don´t have a big truck on my dirveway but I think I can diference the sound of the postman bike haha.
and about the mirage, I don´t know but is something about that delta wing aicraft… I plane to build several all in the colours of Fuerza Aerea Argentina, but this colourful bird got my attention I hope finish it in the way that great decals deserve, but is going to be in a while…
haha ok, I post my step by step pics here once I start with this project. Soon I hope, but I have my university finals ultil december, I´m trying to get my engeneer diploma in march, so maybe is going to be an slow build [swg]
John I’m sure you do!!! Thought I would let you know that I am a responsible dog owner who will not let my dog get near anyone who comes to the house. Some people just don’t understand that you can not let any dog do as they please.
Great score Jeremias. Im looking forward to seeing you work your magic on those lovely resin pieces.
I recieved a shocker this morning as well. (Shocking cos its sunday!) A delivery from Hannants. Lots of lovely goodies. Worth getting up early for. John, i too was a postman for a couple of years. Back in the day when you started work at 5.00am and finished a lunchtime. God knows what theyre up to these days. Flexi time, i reckons [:D]
As most in the USA can attest…the mail ‘truck’ has a distinctive sound…one never seems to hear them arrive, but we always hear them drive away. And yep, my avatar Barney loves straining his leash while berating the postal driver.
The Big Brown…well, Jere, the trucks are not all that huge for local delivery…but they have distintive sound also, though I’m not usually home when they deliver. (I have a sign on my mudroom door encouraging any delivery to be placed INSIDE!)…and they do it.
