#histscalemodels Coming together very, very slowly. A few little bits to add. Mudguards and lights. And of course trying to get the back bed to fit properly. No wonder your man is having a cuppa.

I'm having problems spraying AK 3rd Gen acrylics. Thinned 50/50 with water, it starts out ok but the nozzle soon clogs up and I have to do a full strip down. Any thinner and I get spidering. Any tips appreciated. #histscalemodels

Greatest comedy albums ever? Ones that can be listened to over and over again as conceptual works of art? 1. Vivian Stanshall's Sir Henry At Rawlinson End (Charisma, 1978) 2. Del Close and John Brent's How To Speak Hip (Mercury, 1959). 3. Er, that's it. youtu.be/AjGxvlGiKAE?...

I was tempted by this in the charity shop. (My daughter bought it for me for father's day)

Telly FACT: The comedian Sue Perkins was named after her father's favourite brand of cigarettes.

Went to a car boot sale today on the look out for model kits, all I found was this, and for £2 I couldn't really say no could I? No idea what it is.

#histscalemodels Got bored of painting (as I do) and decided to build the ludicrous gun that goes with the Scammell Pioneer. A 7.2 Inch Howitzer. Little man for scale. Look at those wheels. 😳

Name your fav non-DC or Marvel comic book movie

Flowers in my wild flower meadow (unmown bit of the lawn)

#histscalemodels Thunder Models Scammell Pioneer wheels. Masked them for the first time, I usually hand paint wheels. This looks much better.

#histscalemodels Done a bit of wood on the Scammell Pioneer. It will be painted over and heavily chipped back. Not that you'll see any of this.

*glub*

Not the kind of kit I was hoping to be building today.

Probably ready to lay some paint down on this monster, it's in loads of different sub-assemblies. If I pair it with the artillery piece it'll be about a foot long. 1/35 Scammell Pioneer, Thunder Models. #histscalemodels

I’m sorry, but everyone now knows exactly what Reform stands for, so if you vote for them, you’re a nasty racist with no respect for other humans. No ‘I didn’t know’ or ‘the other parties have let me down’ excuses now. Shame on them and shame on you.

I'd be a photographer, think Brooklyn Beckham without the talent.

"My wife got hurt after annoying the marsupials on our trip to a Malaysian zoo." "Kuala Lumpar?" "No, a kangaroo kicked her up the arse".

@stefjn.bsky.social Can you help, part D14 is supposed to attach to what? The pipe going down isn't referenced anywhere else. Have I missed something?

#histscalemodels #scalemodels Finished the Hobbyboss M4 High Speed Tractor in 1/35. An interesting build of an interesting (to me) subject. Challenging enough to be rewarding and I'm happy with the result.

Post the best photo you've taken of your pet

#histscalemodels Getting there with the M4 HST, just the fiddly bits and weathering to go.

So, this pallet turned up at work...

The 12 year olds at the Pentagon had a cool new missile they wanted to use. It explodes a few feet above the ground & shoots out little tungsten pellets, killing everyone nearby. They used it to bomb a sports facility where girls were playing volleyball. Killed 21 people. In your name.

#histscalemodels #scalemodels Progress made on the Hobbyboss M4 HST in 1/35. Not a bad kit, a lot of flash and ejection pin marks in obvious places. And lots of sub-assemblies to build and paint.

If you see this post a concert photo you took

#histscalemodels #scalemodels Another archive offering RFM M4A1. Second attempt at stowage. First and last attempt at a figure. First attempt at AI background.

#histscalemodels #scalemodels Day 4 of delving into the archives. RFM Stug III Ausf. G. First time attempting proper stowage and snow effects. Happy with the stowage and snow but the winter white wash didn't come out great.

#histscalemodels #scalemodels Day 3 of posting kits completed before I joined this site. Tamiya T-55a. Abandoned in the desert for years. An exercise in extreme rust.

#HistScaleModels Day 2 of posting some builds before I joined this site. Tamiya Spitfire 1/48. I rarely do planes as I can't blame mistakes on battle damage.

#histscalemodels I'm gonna start posting some photos of older completed kits what I've done. Starting with a Zvezda KV2 from a few years back. Knocked out and abandoned as all Russian tanks should be.

#histscalemodels So yeah, about those 1/35 resin spokes....

Tamiya Universal Carrier 1/35 OOTB build. #histscalemodels

IBG Bedford QLB, 1/35. Roof removed for use in North Africa. #histscalemodels

No new pictures. Where are you mentally?

#histscalemodels #scalemodels Tamiya 1/35 Universal Carrier, Straight out of the box. Painted and ready to get a bit mucky.

- There's reports of several local heifers being found dressed as medieval fools. - Jester cow incidents? - No, police think they're linked.

Only MAGA bootlickers whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron are defending this photo

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia. Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.” Really listen to it.

Literally a publication for eight-year olds 40 years ago

##histscalemodels #buildthestash Just out of curiosity, how big is everyone's stash? Mine is 2. (Don't judge me)

#histscalemodels I drove passed the model shop yesterday and then saw this on my passenger seat. How the hell did that get there?

DOG SHIT BAG BAUBLE - NEW FOR 2025 Hand-painted, glossy as fuck, sealed in a biodegradable bag and tied off with a little zip tie. Shit in a bag in a bag. Limited run. When they’re gone they’re gone yeah? Link in bio. A FUKNÄK object from the House of Toss.

Not rude things, a thread:
