Stashed Away

Recent events have led to an exhausting but otherwise much needed re-organization of my stash. Stuff was cleaned, cleared, categorized and stored. As you can see from the above photo of my model stash, I won't be running out of projects for the blog. All this accumulated despite a conscious but obviously wavering decision to stop buying model kits.
Located nearby is an even more extensive selection of books, magazines and references. It's hard when one finds interest in so many genres. One day I dream of a library...and a toy store?

Tear off the shrink wrap!

Hi my name is Sonny, I've been into scale modeling for some 20+ years or so. I'd like to write about some of my experiences in this fantastic plastic world of miniatures.

I'm based in this tropical modeling paradise called Singapore.

I'd recently won some vouchers thanks to the generous sponsors for the recently concluded MCON 2008 here in Singapore. So I spoiled myself even though I decided 6 months ago that there is definitely no more room for loot in the stash. Here's what I got:Not bad if I do say so myself. If you are a keen modeler you'd recognize that that's a lot of 1/72 scale kits in there. I have to confess, I'm a braille scaler.
Here's a bit of a sample from a SAS Jeep build feature I wrote for Armorama recently. That little jeep is responsible for half the loot in the pics above.
The other half came from this tiny scene I built.
p.s. it really should say Marder III instead of Marder II - my bad :(

It's getting late I need to wake up 7 hours from now if I want to...
