Very impressive Stevie, if your collection get's any bigger you'll need more shelving.

I think there is one more to go to complete the bomber collection, Hopefully it'll be a small one, I don't think the shelf can handle another big one!!!

Read more carefully. I'm a shooter, not a modder. |

Hey Al
Here a better pic of my whole Bomber collection:
And my small brass collection:
Stevie |
Those bombers are real dust-collectors aren't they? I'll try to post some pics of what I made 4 or 5 years ago.
I had a part of the atlantik-wal planned, but it never came of the ground. Still have a bunch of tanks, bombers, fighters and some experiments. I also own a torpedo-boat.
My favorites where a Stuka tank buster and a Heinkel 111, and an italian Macchi 202 if I recall well. Those where more or less my best models.

Hi Stevie
I found these three shell cases, 30mm cannon complete with shell these are particularly hard to come by as they tend to bury themselves deep in the mud, but this one was stuck in the target holder, 7.62 Nato and a very rear one a .410 short revolver case which is very old and no longer obtainable. I can't find the 5.5, or as Eric would say "it's out there somwere" or at least he did lastime I looked. I'll get the rest sent over this week and if I find the 5.5 I'll send that as well.

Hi Al
That looks great!!!
I'm surprised that you managed to find a projectile as well, I wonder if it's from the same case!! LOL!!!
The 7.62 and the 4.10 seem to be in perfect condition as well, Very shiny!!
As for the 5.5, Don't worry too much about it, I already have a .22LR in my collection anyway!!
Cheers Al, I look forward to adding those to my collection.

The 5.5 was infact a 5.56 nato case the same as the 7.62 but smaller, when I dig it out I'll send it on.

Yep, I received the parcel in the post just this morning (7:00AM 20/06/07), Everything is in the same condition you posted it in.
Good wrapping job Al, The box seems pretty strong!
Here's an image as proof:
I will start polishing them with some "brasso" just after this post has been sent.
Thanks again Alstone!! (Do I owe you anything for the delivery costs??)
