A kit you built as a kid GB Chat
G.E.SAUNDERS replied to Dansk's topic in A Kit You Built As A Kid GB
hi ALL , I built one of those AURORA KNIGHT Kits ( The Red Knight ) when I was about 12 years old. I have kept it all those years usually on display and gatherin' dust aka patina. Well I knock him off the shelf a coupla years ago and he shattered on the floor, so I packed him away and always thought I'll put him back together (1) day,,,,,,,,,, that day arrived yesterday ! Had a thought to repaint him ....... nupe ! .......... I did a pretty good job of paintin' him -
What's a man to do? Too many to build, not enough time.
G.E.SAUNDERS replied to ScanmanDan's topic in Armour Chat
hi Tim , I 'gree the cost of the Model Kit is very much outweighed by the time spent buildin' that Model. ....sometimes years !........ when the cost is long forgotten . How long does a Pint last ! very pleasurable at the time but nuthin' to show for it ! ....... and YES ! ... .. I is a Drinker and don't regret it ! -
