Evening All.

First time posting and just trying my luck.

I am looking for any bits you may have laying around from plastic model kits, maybe left over on the sprews from a build or maybe a build that never started, and instead of heading to the tip I could intercept them. Ships, Planes, Military or Space vehicles etc.

Not looking for anything expensive. Just testing the waters so to speak.

Flick me a message if you have something that fits the bill, I am in the Wellington area.

Kitbashing or model bashing is the practice of making a new scale model by taking pieces out of kits. These pieces may be added to a custom project or to another kit.

Thank you for your time in reading this. Have a great evening.

Chris.
