On the packet, it said rinse after 15 minutes. But he fell asleep in 10.

I often wonder what the fall of France and its aftermath was like for the Senegalese troops in the French army. Very few seem to have survived either of them.

I messed around for nearly 30 years. It wasn't until I bought an airbrush and a cheap compressor that my modelling really took off.

Really looking forward to it. To be honest, I was getting a little weary of all the pointy US jets 😅

I entered my 1/144 scratchbuilt Taube in the VMX25 exhibition hosted by Modellers Without Borders. They awarded it a gold and this week the award itself arrived in the shape of this nifty little poker chip. It even has a QR code on the back so you can view all the other entries 😮 Thank you, MWB!

The conservative Right seem to latch onto the anti-abortion issue as a kind of absolution, to excuse themselves for all the other horrible evil amoral shit that they are actively into.

Good to know. Thanks for helping me dodge that bullet. 🙏

I’d be happy if they paid their royalties and stopped hiding sales numbers to diminish how much they owe. ☹️

I really enjoyed the video and I would have done the same. Do consider painting a victory mark on the eraser and displaying it on the wall!

Actual truth is such a precious thing these days. Goodness knows I cannot stand the guy, but this is fake and you are an unreliable source, so I’m going to have to mute you.

Hi Andrew, these ones are from scratch. I adore the Nieuport series of scouts. Such sporty looking things 🖖😊

While I accept that this is sort of rubbish he often says, this time it is fake. I’m going to have to mute your account. Because we have enough of his bullshit to deal with without having to make stuff up.

“Antifa” sounds vaguely foreign and is therefore triggering to them. The best thing you can do is stop being lazy and always refer to it as Anti-Fascist, so that they know what they are opposing and know what they are.

I read that sentence three times. I love the positive tone, but I’m still not able to work it out.

It took more than eight months of careful work, but the scratchbuilt Moranes are finally at the stage where the fuselages can be sealed up and flushed in with a few dabs of filler. Next task is to assemble the wings and make the undercarriage struts. #144scale #scalemodels
