Tough day at the office. Engine misaligned, windscreen won't fit, and the intake fouls the underside of the clamshell hood. Had to disassemble about seven steps' worth of progress to get it even this far. Still, should pay off in the end.

The mystery package has arrived! So who guessed „abandoned Pripyat bumper cars“? 😂 And of course I had to get two because it would not be bumper cars if they did not bump into each other 😝
3d printed Pripyat bumper cars in 1/35 
Still need a bit of cleanup

Back from a few days away in NE of UK. Finally visited the Jim Clark museum in Duns which I have wanted to do for long time. Simply excellent collection of his 100+ trophies, memorabilia and currently these 4 race cars. We also stopped off at Chirnside church graveyard to pay respects.

Still a little way to go, but I've added a bit of light weathering on my Airfix WWI fire engine - and I've finally finished the video for the remotely controlled lighting and sound effects: youtu.be/DxHClpoQMJc

Fiat Abarth finished for #ItaliaGB. A nice little kit from Tamiya, I did it as a stablemate for the Castrol Mini. As usual there are some things I could have done better, anyway here she is.

Funnily enough I have ordered touch up pot for the Ferrari, will do test first otherwise will order Zero etc but will need clear coat. Have reasonable hopes - Hasegawa Porsche 944 was airbrushed with Audi touch up pot (I had an A4) with Mr Levelling Thinner over primer, was pleased with result.

#QuestionsQuaturday #histscalemodels What is the biggest mess/cock-up you have made in your modelling career? A big mess I made was testing out my new airbrush without any decent ventilation, just a door open. The kitchen was covered in pink dust for ages. Inspired by a post by @tachyoneddies.com

Good timing at Sainsbury’s (only went in for milk), new case contents dumped randomly on a shelf rather than the empty metal #Hotwheels container next aisle. Grabbed the #FerrariFriday #Ferrari F2004 before the scalpers! Assuming scaling is right, so small next to modern F1 version
