And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too I'll see you on the dark side of the moon: www.bbc.com/news/videos/...

Yet again Arthur and guest cut through to the issues and provide a global perspective. Thoroughly recommended.

If you are then get to it!

Gotta love the Canadians... Right now there is a big push for them to forego buying the US-Made F-35 fighter jets in favor of buying Swedish-built jets instead. The proposed designation for this new jet would be the FU-47.

In the absence of a Comet to post, gratuitous Kubel post which of course went on to be the Porsche 911 when it grew up😆 #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

Tamiya store Tokyo. Interesting to see what they see as the kits they want to stand out. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

2/Given the extent of the damage, restoration of the workshop without a complete reconstruction is highly unlikely, which effectively means the facility has been put out of operation.

Not known for doing allied armour…..it is a start!. I do like a MiniArt kit. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #miniart

Iran-a diversion.

❗️Zelenskyy awarded Ukrainian servicemen with state decorations in Druzhkivka At the command post of the 3rd battalion of the 28th Separate Mechanized Brigade named after the Knights of the Winter Campaign,

❗️Ukraine is preparing a down payment for the first Gripen fighters from Sweden and Rafale from France — President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy “We must have a down payment from the already Ukrainian side regarding future aviation, regarding Gripen and Rafale”

Always sensible journalism

Tim’s work, always good to follow

😆

🤔

who made this

❗️Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Syrskyi stated that in February Ukraine recaptured more territory than Russia managed to seize — for the first time since the start of the Kursk operation.

Always on the money.

Of all the photographers I like. Don McCullin is right up there.

A liability to themselves and allies alike

We now go live to Kuwaiti anti-aircraft headquarters:

Invented a new Cromwell version with AI. Revised gun mantlet! Better in the second. Bit of fun #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

The final….final😆 touch has arrived for the Cromwell. Filling up the pots pans box. Then again….can you get mess tins?🤔 #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

look like a bunch of hard b'stards.

Rattling his tiny tin

🔴 Russia launched a massive strike on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, killing one person in Kyiv region and damaging multiple districts, according to local authorities. Drones also hit energy sites in Odesa region, sparking fires but causing no casualties.

The technology behind Ferrari’s new F1 wing😂

😵‍💫

UK public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

Perfect

I think it's Comet next. Try less busy & washes / filters with Russian Green as a base. No nearer a better colour with a can. Tempted to veer off-Bronco Humber Scout Car though. Then back to Germany where at least Can colours are easy. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya #bronco

Another worthy of a clap. My kind of look. So good. In the Tamiya group: Paulo Panzer. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

It doesn’t really matter *why* Trump’s desire to destabilise & divide Europe precisely mirrors Vladimir Putin’s - whether kompromat, self-interest, naked bigotry or something else l. What matters is that Europe treats both regimes like the enemies of progress & democracy they so clearly are.

🐌🪖in the middle of the night.... dreaming of next build... what about a what if...had the Comet Crocodile entered service. Seems possible to swap shrouded hose for the flamethrower & Besa, then couple up the trailer to the Comet leaving the Churchill unmolested? #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

Once in a while something really stands out.... www.facebook.com/groups/43330... #miniart #scalemodels #histscalemodels

Waiting for the version where XXX Corps reach the bridge. 😆 #ww2 #arnhem

look at those beautiful Churchill's in the background.

🐌🪖As I understand it🤔, the "usual" painting sequence is: Primer Primary colour(s) Varnish (Matt, Satin, Gloss) Chipping layer & fluid not relevant - no airbrush....or? Washes, filters, filth, detailing Varnish to seal in the goodness #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

🐌🪖. Have the creativity, background interest & basics running okay. Painting skills next: washes, shading, acrylics, pigments, filters....😵‍💫without going full overly stylised. Any good forums / resources because the socials lack here #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

🐌🪖...Cromwell very nearly done.... Comet next to see the upgrade in Tamiya kits & the tank versions. Was agonising over colour, TS-2, is very green & dislikes washes. Then saw these...wildly differing base colours. 😳 #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

Hanging at the mall, recharging before the sub zero ride home. What a teenager😆

A proper mess.

I started this in back in August and to use a phrase from Heat, the "juice" is all the background, studying photos and the design process which is as fun as the build. What is the core of your love of model making? #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

🐌🪖....It is finished. Bored now...😁 #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

🐌🪖. Pots for the box and a box of .303 to add. Barrel to finish and started on the figure. Anything missing? After that, it is finished. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

🐌🪖Waiting on pots and pans. Wanting gauze for the barrel but simply cannot buy gauze-unless a massive amount🤬. Besa links, Bren, rope, rubble & backpacks. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #tamiya

😂

A remakably good speech. Well beyond the capacity of Bone Spurs to understand. Canada-always there when needed.
