I, too, tend to buy on impulse, but not just any old model kit. Somedays, if it is an interesting kit, only one available and 20 or so watching it....I'll buy it just to ruin their day! :dancing:

Add to my list
A-20/B-26
CH-46
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Honestly nothing at the moment. Im more the spontaneous buyer, and in the last days/weeks I got two time consuming projects started (Akagi & Dragon Vorpanzer), and got a bust from a friend - the biggest one I ever had.

Me happy. :blush:

The bust. :D

Compared to other bigger busts I made so far (most 1/10, 1/9 and something) this one is almost as big as my hand. Heres one already painted:

Absolutely, I think Im gonna steal two or three techniques from him. That bust itself is a piece of art too - on the other hand the movie which it is based from is something you really dont have to watch. Based on Gogols novel, Yul Brynner tried to breathe some cineastic life in this story - and failed. So did other actors in their movies, unfortunately (read the book if you can, its far better than the movies).
