I'm back from what was darkest, wettest, muddiest Kent! On the last day, Sunday, the sun came out and stayed out all day ... grrr! Not to worry, I had several nice comments about some of the truck models on display including Steve's Beaver! A nice German visitor took a shine to my built and weathered 1/24th Opel Blitz and offered me ready money for it, so it's now on the way to Germany. I managed to sell several of my 1/35th stash and replaced them with 1/24th kits, so I'm stocked to the ceiling again, just have to b uild some of them now, or should I say finish some of the builds I've started?

It's a 5 day show starting on wednesday and ending on sunday. We're there from the saturday before until the monday after. I took several 1/35th kits to sell, basically to fund a couple of projects. Selling one of the built models was a bonus, and the bloke is coming back next year, he wants an exact model replica of the Opel Blitz he owns. The owner of the Russian MAZ 537 also wants a model of his truck ... I think I need to get my arse in gear.
