Jan 20, 2008
A new year and over 3 months since I last updated. Pathetic. How can I live with myself with so much time passing between updates?
I dunno, I just do. Lot's of stuff added this time around.

Everybody is waiting for the 280. Me too. I messed with the master and had to go grovel at Freds feet for forgiveness. Luckily I caught him in a good mood and he only beat me for a short while. Some changes are being made that will help the modeler and casting, while I work on the Photo etch. We are targetting May for release, but it will be tight!! It still looks great though! : )

We have decided on the next couple of kits to come, but I'm not saying anything until the 280 is out.
I have ordered paint from WEM and we will be the exclusive source for the Colourcoats Canadian Navy Grey.
We should have it in stock by the time the 280 is ready.

I have set up a page showing the cases we are now carrying. So far only 2 sizes, but more sizes are to come.
They have a long lead time, so be patient if we are out of stock.
We are also now carrying a line of pins and custom badges under the RCN Memorabilia page. I will add to the page as we get more items stocked. If you don't see what you want, ask, at the moment I only have a small sample of what's available.
The Gold braid badges are hand made and I can get any ship done. Unfortunately, it takes 8-10 weeks to be produced.
I also hope to stock the smaller work badges that are worn on jackets, but that will take time as stock becomes available.

A new item added in the kit accessory section, D-01 old style wooden jetty with small buildings, tanks and yard clutter!!

I will be at Torcan in Toronto in May and Fred will be at Capcon in Fredericton. I may be at the Rocky Mtn show in Calgary, but only if the 280 is ready and we will both be in Virginia this Summer for the IPMS Nat's. Don't forget to say hi if you see us at a show!!
Once the 280 is out, I will be getting some more decals out, so keep watching this space!!

I've also added photos of the Haida I am doing unpainted on the Haida kit page.
Thanks for stopping by!
