A couple of quick pictures to show the amount of work in front of me...
These boxes occupied the bottom tier of my pack when I moved here, and accounted for fully 1/3 of my total gear load, much to the amusement of the wife :)
Most of it came through reasonably unscathed
This box, however, took several critical hits and I have a few hours work ahead to repair broken barrels, etc. Will hopefully put A into G early next week and during the upcoming holidays and have some genuine progress to show you all
I recently discovered my love for refurbishing old models over building new ones. So this basically looks like a little piece of heaven.
ReplyDeleteI'd cry...a lot!
ReplyDeleteWell packed I see Al.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of work. But you know you'll get lost in it once you get started and the time will fly quickly by.
ReplyDeleteI just finished refurbishing some stuff myself... some kits sent over to NZ from Australia. great fun. I think that in future that is how I might try and get my modern AFV's as it is easier, cheaper and provides lots and lots of satisfaction.
ReplyDeletegood luck with the refurbishments!
A lesson there for future moves I think!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the treadmill. No war-gamer ever leaves (sinister laugh optional).
ReplyDeletelooking at these photos, i feel terrified and enthusiastic at the same time.
ReplyDeletego on and good job!
lol, seems we all have similar ideas, as Paul would say..."model on."
ReplyDeleteGood luck, it's all part of the process, isn't it? I find that repairs like this are easier than the actual model building.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the road to Basra (in miniature) circa 1991...
