I got wayyy too many 1/48 scale kits in the past month or so:
He219 Uhu
Me163
Me262
Ta 183 Hubein (x2)
Fw190D (x2)
Me410
BF110
Spitfire Mk 9
Spitfire Mk 8
P-51B
P-51D
P-47D
P-38J
P-40E
P-39Q
The only saving grace is most of those kits where under $25 bucks (off Ebay or various websites Buy and sell) and some of them even had resin cockpits with them as part of the deal!
I plan on building the Spits in US markings...

I have been on a real armour bender for the last 6 months, the last aircraft I completed was the 'Grey Nurse' Spitfire. This though, does not mean that I have ignored the aircraft section of my local hobby stores..... In continuing my obsession with wacky aircraft, these are the models that I have purchased in the last two months......
The I 16 will be done in Spanish markings

The A12 Shrike will be my Armorama Guard build

The Albatros D.V is slated for one of my Duel campaigns

and finally the PZL-23A,.... is just too beautiful of a plane not to build!

Mosr recent acquisition would be the 1/48 AMT/Ertl ES-3A Shadow. Found it in the local hobby shop with a really good price tag, so I snagged it.
Knowing that Superscale has just re-released their VQ-5 farewell scheme decal sheet, I just had to have it.

Hi!
What I bought today;
Bristol F.2b Fighter, Roden 1/48
E.E. Lightning F-1/F-2/F-3, Airfix 1/48
I never buy kits for “the Stash”, but I have a (quite large ) pile of “soon to be built” kits!
