Some sad news. The Model Box in Barton le Clay, Bedfordshire will be closing in a few months. The dreadful winter has taken its toll on the owners health and wellbeing so they are packing up when the lease runs out. If you are in the area pop in and help them clear their stock. 👍👍 #histscalemodels

I've been reminiscing about a childhood toy my parents vetoed because of its astronomical price tag. The beautiful thing about adulthood? No one can tell me no anymore 🤣 My 1988 vintage (re-release) Tamiya Avante is arriving next week! #ChildhoodDreams #AdultingPerks

It’s insane to think that the Trump administration was more welcoming this week to the Tate brothers than to the President of Ukraine.

#histscalemodels Those pieces of paper you sometimes get with decal sheets, don’t throw them away, it is fine enough to slide under the tools on models for painting so you can paint them in place

If you're truly proud to be British, you stay on this cold, rainy island, pay your taxes and complain about it, you don't run off to some sunny tax haven to avoid paying for a system that gave you or your ancestors the wealth in the first place.

Braverman should be driven out of public life for saying something as bigoted, conspiratorial, ridiculous, and dumb as this but she won’t be, of course, because anti-Muslim bigotry and Islamophobic fearmongering has been normalized in British public life.

"For me, this is the most horrible photo in the world (among so many horrible photos): a small child picks a flower and gives it to another child. Minutes later they were all gassed. The photo was taken in 1944 in the Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp."

An enjoyable read Badger and so much of the modelling woes I identify with so closely, I could have written it myself. A position I’m sure many of us feel. Indeed I’m writing this whilst trying to motivate myself to get back to my Lancaster. Good luck and thank you - I’m off to do some modelling 👍

I didn’t worry too much about the weathering when I realised how little can be seen. Here’s the fuselage sides. I added a bit of gratuitous electrical wire colour hoping it might catch the eye through the canopy.

Phil Cartwright @philcartwright.bsky.social · 06/01/2025

Now I’ve concluded the internals of the Lancaster with so much PE. Having done a quick dry fit of the fuselage sides it’s clear that you really can’t see much of it once it buckled up, just as all the previous builders of the kit reported 🤪. Here’s the radio, navigator and pilot areas.

Automatic headlights that drivers rely on, do not ‘see’ fog as a hazard. Once set people don’t know how to adjust them. Same with windscreen wipers. You see abject panic as cars enter the car wash and drivers panic to switch off the wipers. Further evidence of tech removing our ability to think.
