This weekend is three days long and to me it is a good opportunity to tidy up the house. The target is to get rid of anything I no longer need (but somehow is still in the possession of mine). I started by trowing away all used PC parts, mobos, sound card, vga card, old ram. I found a 486 board sitting in the cabinet, with 8MB of rams that I once kept in the hope that it might be useful someday, a bad habit that will eventually render your place into a garbage castle.
Now, I found a handful of Tamiya's [enamel paint](http://www.tamiya.com/english/products/list/enamel_1.htmb that I bought for my pla-mo. No, I hardly do any pla-mo and by no mean I could call myself a plastic model hobbyist. I constructed a few gunpla's and a few aircraft fighter but all of them turn out to be a failure of mine.
Nevertheless, I were serious about assembling one, such that I bought air spray and a lot of paint, quite a spending spree. They served me well at that time and they sitting in the cabinet for almost 10 years without any further use. Shame on me. Anyway, I disposed all of them this morning and it is a kind of sadness for me. So I took a few picture of what is the remnant of my short-live hobby.
What to be disposed
Tamiya paint has a code starting with X or XF, X means gross paint while XF mean flat paint. The following number is the color code which is the same for gross and flat, e.g., X-1 is gross black, XF-1 is flat black. The back row is the Acrylic color of Gunze along with its thinner and Mr. Masking Solid.

Some of gross paint, the clear cap ones (X-23 and X-26) are special because they are clear paints, used for painting a clear part such as windscreen of a car or a canopy of an aircraft.
X-20 is the thinner.

I almost forgot Putty. On the left is the lacquer.
Finally, everything is disposed. God of Tamiya should be furious.
