Re: Micro Armor Storage
And the former type face unit that I keep my aircraft in.
The first drawer is a bit of a mixed bag. P-38 Lightnings, Martin Baker MB5s, and Jordanian Hunters to name three.
Another bunch of random aircraft (I really should sort them out). Bf 109s, Me 262s, Fairey Fireflies...
Meteors, Arado 234s, and some weird Luft 46 types.
Mustangs, Fleet Air Arm, and USN stuff.
Random aircraft that I really DO need to sort out.
P-47s, P-80s, a solitary Whirlwind, and a few Polish aircraft.
A mix of Eastern Front allies and Italian aircraft along with a few Ta183s.
Mostly early war with a few He 162s and Lippisch P.13s
More USN aircraft - not mine, although I did paint them.
FAA Barracudas and Avengers, along with some Dorniers, Henschel 129s and others.
Mostly WW2 RAF - although they're not mine and (for a change) I didn't paint them.
Back to my stuff. Fairey Battles, Hampdens, Mossies...
Typhoons, Furies, and assorted Japanese.
1/600th RAF and USAAF C-47s plus assorted (1/300th) RAF types.
Assorted Soviet types.
Focke Wulf FW 190s and Ta 152s
More British stuff that's neither mine or painted by me.
And another drawer of the same.
My medium USAAF bombers and observation aircraft. The B-17s aren't mine (and not one of my paint jobs either).
Finally, some WW1 types that again aren't mine (or painted by me).

Re: Micro Armor Storage
Those drawers are awesome, they almost look like they come from a school/university? That’s a serious aircraft collection!

Re: Micro Armor Storage
I kinda thought that for a minute too, but then I figured they looked a little more geology department, lol.

Re: Micro Armor Storage
What an awesome collection! Hose pics were great. My favorite is the random drawer - looks like one of those big heaps of WW2 aircraft at the end of the war.

Re: Micro Armor Storage
That's so awesome! SO do you just keep your entire collection at the club, or do you have some stuff at home and some there? I've never been part of a club with permanent storage areas before, I always just brought my stuff over for a game.

Re: Micro Armor Storage
Pretty much, it's the only place it gets used so it makes sense.
I do have some stuff at home but it's either stuff that I haven't finished or old stuff that I felt needed redoing. For example, as you can see in some of the photos, I've recently started painting the aircraft canopies in a light blue - in the past I used black. So over the next ? months I'll be redoing them in blue.
It's very handy, but can be expensive as it obviously costs more for permanent premises rather than booking a hall for one night a week (for example).I've never been part of a club with permanent storage areas before

I also belong to a club with permanent storage available. But I keep my stuff at home becasue I also game elsewhere.
