Nice stash bro, some nice kits in there!

You shoulda entered in the JAM113 GB with the Vietnam M113. Also, why do you have "Stalag 13" as where you live??

Am I under US Gov. surveillance for knowing you...?

Nice stash mate, just a quick word of caution, when you build up the Airfix Westland Gazelle, MrsModeller and I found it is a massive tail-sitter. We had to add about 5 grams behind the cockpit bulkhead.

Here's my stash..

Post by **Panzerwolf** » Mon Jan 06, 2014 11:25 pm

Here you go Hollywood:

Aircraft

Armor

Not sure what to do with this yet, hoping for some GB that fits...

I'll be using the B-17 or the Greif for the Bombers GB.
The HobbyBoss 'Hintern' designation still bothers me

John and Panzerwolf ...your stashes are weak.. I don't see any triples of quads of the same kit.

Awesome collections guys; sooo many tanks I'd gladly 'permanently borrow without permission'...E-50...Panther II...Sherman ETO...Hellcat...King Tiger...

Only really started scale modelling a few months ago so my stash is small

It is growing though..

Well their are some nice stash's there guys. I've never really pulled my stash out of their plastic containers before.. thanks alot

thanks to this topic I thought I would. After banishing the wife to the computer room and telling her not to come out

I did. There is some overlap on the photos.

Miscellanous junk. There are more in the kits but I didn't pull them out.

Random kits.

Figures.

WWII, AFV's and Planes

Modern Planes.

Oh dear

I think I have a fetish for MIG's.

cheers

Panzerwolf, I think Hintern just means the turret is at the back of the body, there is one with the turret right up the front, which has a different name but is the same vehicle.

cheers

Jesus man my stash is like 15 tanks and a couple of birds!!!

Give 'em here!!

Y'all must be going bankrupt with all this stuff!!!

Is the rule when at the hobby store 'buy the three kits you like and then only build the best looking one - Then repeat' ?!?!?

He explained that Hinten means "rear" and Hintern means "butt" I believe...

I though i was buying to many kits for a beginner but now i've seen everyone else's stash's i feel that mine is tiny.

I feel some overtime at work coming on... and a dozen more kits to be ordered!

Post by **Bissyboat** » Wed Jan 08, 2014 7:37 am

Nice booty in your treasures lads. Mine is spaced out in two massive drawers. Got some armour, wingy things and a fair amount of floaty things. I will post some pics soon. Do as you preach, right?

My first post was to share the pain of my affliction, it was supposed to be cautionary not inspirational.

Some nice kits there though

I always said (and have thus far stuck to it) that when this single 1000mm base unit in my cave was full, then that would be it for my stash. Nothing new unless there was a space for it!

Please ignore the bottle of Jura. I have no idea where that came from. None at all.

Excluded from that of course would be the WiPs.

Nice Gary, I hear that Jura is great for medicinal purposes

Gary those pictures must have been taken ages ago.....there is sun (I think that's what its called) in those pics! I ain't seen that for months!

Nice stash though!

Lot mine'll fit in one picture. I have a tight budget; most of it goes towards paint. I also try not to buy that many kits as I've got enough right now. I think I have 15 kits (excluding figure sets) and I probably paid for 4 of them, the rest all all gifts for Christmas etc and donations by my fellow club members because they all have stashes like Michael.

They tell me stories of how they sneak new kits in the basement window because their wives don't want them to buy any more kits. One guy said he did it when his wife was in the basement cleaning

I don't know much about ships but that Mayflower seems to be in quite a weird scale.

Noticed that too. Seems that it's the only model of such scale...

Are you really sure you want this? You will only start to drool or start to cry

Nahh, actually i have seen more epic stashes in this thread than mine, so don´t expect too much.

Problem is i have two stashes at two different places. However, the second stash is not that important, it only contains plenty of 1:72 scale figures and kits i have almost forgotten about.
I´ll show you my main stash later, it will take some work to take the pics.

Post by **Lego** » Wed Jan 08, 2014 8:02 pm

Ok, my small collection.

Floaties

Armour

Wingy

Other

Post by **Panzerwolf** » Wed Jan 08, 2014 8:20 pm

Wow, that Bismarck of yours is one huge model

Post by **HamilkarBarkas** » Wed Jan 08, 2014 9:11 pm

Alright, here is my stash. Its not really nicely displayed, i just took pictures of it.

As i said earlier there is more in my second stash, but mainly 1:72 scale figures and other minor kits. I will take some pics as soon as i´m there again

Post by **Panzerwolf** » Wed Jan 08, 2014 9:19 pm

Another beautiful stash!
I see your Vasa is similar to my Mayflower.
Any idea what to do with that yet?
Like some diorama, I need inspiration

Also I'd like to see some of your techniques for building older sailing ships

Haha Reiner's Bunker Welt awesome.. And the rest of the stash is nice too, especially considering what you are able to create out of these..

I met the guy in October in Rain where i displayed my work in the exhibition, he built up his shop there. His stuff is quite good and very beneficial. 18€ for that big package with street and house front is not bad at all.

Thank you, no idea what to do with the Vasa. I hate sailing ship rigging so i might show it during the transition between two construction docks without masts and rigging. However, its a quite intimidating kit and the colourful figures on the back of the ship will be a pain to paint.

In my opinion his shop is a bit confusing, but you will get by i think.

About 80 odd kits which a relative let me have as they were moving.

I really thought you would have had a huge stash Hammy. I mean you really do shift through a lot of models on youtube. I guess that answers it

you build them and don't stash them

Thats true indeed, but as i mentioned there is a bit more at the other stash in my own flat. Especially my figure stash is small as i tend to paint them as soon as i receive them. I try to keep my stash small but in the last months i realized that a bigger stash can be an advantage. you always have acess to kits if you have a spontaneous idea for a diorama for example. I will certainly increase my dioramastuff stash in the future, you can´t have enough of buildings and other acessoires.

I've merged both threads together so it's all one thread.

I'll get some pics of my stash again tomorrow as it's changed a bit since last time.

Wow guys, does it mean that you need to build all these kits you have at home or you have already built it?
In any case that is a lot of plastic, think about the environment !!!

I've only been back in the hobby about 6 months, but already I have succumbed I think. So far my justifications for buying kits before I have finished the one I'm on are:
1. Wow, that's a great bargain I don't think i'll get one like it at that price again
2. I really like that plane and loved making the kit as a kid
3. This kit is really rare and if I don't buy it I might not get a chance for years
4. I'll buy this kit so when I see it I'm motivated to get better so I'm worthy of it
5. I need a kit to practice on, so I've not wasted my money on XYZ
6. A combination of the above.
