Building from the Stash - Airfix 1/48 Jaguar GR.1

 I've been thinking a lot recently about why I have a stash, as I only ever seem to build kits that I've just bought. It does seem a bit odd to me that I have of these great kits collecting dust in the stash, whilst I build the newest thing on the pile... So to counter this, I've decided to start building some of my stash - starting with this:  I've been working on this kit on and off for a month or so, whilst in the midst of packing up my house for our upcoming move to Wales. It goes together pretty well, although a bit of filler is needed where two parts fit together.  For some reason, I fancied painting this one with Humbrol Enamels, so I picked up a few new ones and made a start on the load out.  That's pretty much it, I've masked and primed the model and painted a few more bits and bobs - but I'm going to have to leave that now as I packed up my bench last night. We move out of our house of 16 years on the 19th October, and into our new one in Old Colwy
