Its been a eventful last month for me. Spent several tens of thousands on model building!!!

These came from Hobby Lobby clearance. The Helicopter was 22.00 down from 65.00, the Mustangs and the vette were 10.99 each and the merc and sprint car were 11.99.

It came with a yard and some extra rooms one could live in if they wanted too, or you could just build a different model in each room and never have to pack them up to work on something different!

Here's the outside of the new model room

Here is the model room ready to go, only took me 3 weeks to get this far.

Got these for the new back yard track. They are 1/18 scale. Ground breaking is in a few weeks.

Got the AMT 1970 1/2 Camaro and a 1970 'Cuda (special edition oooooohhhh), some paint, and a new brush that was .99 instead of 2.99 (best brush ever, it's the Atlas Brush Co. 970 3/0 689076966337 ) and also some Tamiya tape. That was my monthly model trip haha..
