SMA What's New In Your Stash?!?

[Down Time]

I have the Cutty Sark in my stash. Is there a GB on the horizon?

Can you put cannons on the Sark?

I have the cutty sark in my wishlist, roll on Xmas...... Pantherman

Can you put cannons on the Sark?

Sure. Just need to find 1/96 scale cannons.

Looks like aftermarket canons are a plenty... according to Mr Googles, including these brass babies on eBart.

Figure painting with oils is now taking weeks.

I put oil on my F-100, was sticky (slightly) almost 4 weeks later.

And I'm going to lose 25 pounds by getting up early and going to the gym everyday, starting tomorrow.

Houston?

I have a problem!



It is not the stash, it is the WIPs!

 

[kevin]

No problem.......put some of that paint on the shelf and you got room for at least one more WIP.

Until a few days ago, I wasn't aware these existed, but when I encountered one online it immediately seemed like a very useful modeller's tool:



A fractal vice, which can clamp things that don't necessarily have flat sides, such as:



Or, with a bit of fiddling, even:

A fractal vice

Classic, nice. Pantherman

 

[BarleyBop]

Ultra liner, cylindrical tweezers, flip up lenses, medium radius pliers, flat brushes, reamer.
Will let you know how these work out...

MicroMark has some pretty cool tools.

 

[BarleyBop]

cool tools

Tried the clip-on lenses... think they will be better than the cheaters I've been using: the larger lenses mean a larger field of vision, and they flip up when I don't need 'em.
The extra weight on my nose and ears may take some getting used to though.
The jewel will be the cylindrical tweezers, I think!

Andy came through today, pre-ordered about 8 months ago. 18 sprues, and two bags of 3D printed bits and accessories. This is going to be a major undertaking, need to clear a few more WIPs 1st.

... a major undertaking

...so long as it doesn't lead you to a major undertaker!
