RivetCounter Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Greetings from Poland. It's finally time for me to reveal myself. I have been modeling since ages. I call myself a rivet counter and procrastinator. Painting is another phobia of mine. I am afraid of this process and put it off for as long as possible. It's a terrible mix. And since I've been living for half a century, now I know that I have to hurry with finishing them. Otherwise I'll go to modeller's hell for all the unfinished works. I have been visiting this forum for several years and I like it because of its classic look. Here is my one of the last projects - a Lend-Lease Matilda. Of course, she needs to be painted.

Bullbasket Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Hi Marek, and welcome aboard. Good to have another AFV modeller. I like the look of your Matilda. It will look even better with some paint on it. John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Hello Marek … from the cuty of Chicago USA, I’m mostly an aircraft builder myself. I occasionally venture into armor and other types but stay mostly around the winged things. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do you shop for your models in Warsaw? Does Mirage Hobbies still have a store there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivetCounter Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 @73north It's an ordinary Tamiya's Matilda (35300) in 1:35 scale with few parts from Firestorm Models and tracks from Bronco. @TheyJammedKenny! Yes, Mirage's shop is still working, but they aim rather at the entry-level folks. There is nothing there for such perverts like me. Personally I prefer Martola (https://www.martola.com.pl/en) and Jadar (https://www.jadarhobby.pl/index.php?language=en). But Jadar went totally on-line during the pandemic. And speaking about on-line shops there is a bunch of good shops like https://www.super-hobby.co.uk/ , https://exito.site/en_GB/index etc. Honestly, I don't remember the last time I was in a "normal" store. I usually buy on-line, it is the easiest way to get rid of your money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
