Yes go to Artistichobbies.com and go to decals look through the decals a bit and the decals 131 will appear, that's all I found
I saw 131 for Panther on their site, not for a tiger :(

It's official , I suck at airbrushing :haha:
Gonna need lots more practice :crazy:
Any updates Mark :D

No worries. Just frustrating she has 12+ years as a phlebotomist
Her hospital closed the lab, and out sourced to a cheaper company. There are jobs , she applies and never hears back? So she is getting depressed and money is tight. Thank god we own the house now and don't have a mortgage , still bills to pay, health insurance etc etc :/
Things will turn around , just gonna take time

Thats a shit deal mate, straight after getting married and all,................forgive my ignorance, but a phlebotomist does not sound like a glamour or common job..............what on earth is a 'one of those' ?

That aside, youve done things right to have no mortgage and that in this day & age is no mean feat mate .
If you can get her to do such things as sanding, priming, texturing castings etc etc, you might be onto something :haha: :haha:

Herman a phlebotomist is the person that takes your blood at the hospital, not glamor :O
Pretty common, however the market is flooded.

Yea Alpha e home cooked meals are a bonus :haha:

That took me by surprise Mark, so when did they stop using Leeches? As a 60+ blood donor I have always looked forwards to the blunt 6 inch nail being thrust into my arm or it could be the orange juice and biscuits, I hope all your travails are swiftly resolved and Tank building can be resumed. shaun
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:
