Modelling related ... some vallejo air colours ... looking forward to trying these. Also got "a bridge too far" on DVD.
Didnt really want kits as I have at least 2 years worth sitting on shelves, plus another years worth in-progress.
I got 18 days off work ..... andI guess thats what Im happiest about! (:-)

Santa brought me a Charles de Gaulle 1.400 aircraft carrier by Heller, and according to the reviews, I thought it was going to be lacking a lot of the things to make it look real.

But according to the directions, it has many things for the price. I was really impressed.

Sounds like Airbrushes are popular gifts this year.

I got an Iwata Eclipse HP-CS. I've been drooling over it at the local hobby shop (and online, and in catalogs) for months, and my girlfriend picked it up for me.

It's a dream. I love it. No messing with bottles, and if I only need to paint one little bit, I can just put a couple of drops in there and spray away.

I also got some Zithromax and some cough syrup with codine for the nasty sinus/chest infection I seem to have picked up, but that's not really a present.

I got money for that one but still havent decided what to do with it.
I think I'll order Tamiya's T-55 or Academy's UH-1C and a book about terrain modelling.
any suggestions?

Merry Christmas to all!

Santa (baby!) delivered an Ott light, guess those new glasses are needed more and more. This should help with the real colors I am painting!
