🐌🪖. 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

Urgs I decided to paint the toilet and tried the paint combo from the house. The gray wash was a gamble like always but I was fairly happy with all parts... except the side that will be most visible 😑 The inside of the part was great, so I tried to strip only the outside...

Did not do much scale modeling this weekend because I was visiting my parents but I glued in the stove and connected it to the walls! Went pretty well without much fuss 😁

I still try to figure out that letter... I think it's Russian after all. However, it's in old cursive handwriting that doesn't look anything like Cyrillic. I've tested some translators but they give me completely different results. Except one part "Michailowitsch" I think there is a full name on it

The biggest mystery about Gradpas Photoalbum is, that it contains the pictures of two young man in uniform. The pictures where taken at the same photo set. He wrote their first names next to them and we believe they are Russians. But grandpa never answered who they are or why they are in the album 😅

So it appears my Grandpa build Starfighters. I kind of knew that he was working in plane construction for a while before switching to IT but for some odd reason I never asked WHAT planes 😂

Day started so well then I went to get my new glasses. The temples where too long and needed shortening… and well they fu it up. My cutting and sanding skills are like worlds better! Now I try to get new templates or a refund because I know this will make me upset whenever I look at it… 😞

Gang, it's really hard to photograph tiny trees. Let's try this again... #histscalemodels

Does someone know how to save the very thin wires from tiny led? They look like made from copper but there seems to be some kind of isolation on them except the ends…. That broke off 😐 I asked google and tried knife and candle but it did not really help 😅 #scalemodels

So while the whole #buildthestash crew stays strong I keep buying stuff in their stead… Wich is of course more accessories for the house (I really have too many now 😱) But hear me out: Stalkers need guns! There are so many options and what do I do with the rest? 😂

Folks... Tank's done. See below for more. Still have the base and Haus to finish up, but feels good to have this done. A lot of fun in a small package. ✌️ #histscalemodels #buildthestash

Fresh ice and snow on the water this morning looks rather ewww Good morning have a good week!

You know, reading all that news… As a German born long after ww2 I often wondered why the German people let it happen (half the world probably asked this question) Well I guess we can all watch the answer live on tv right now…

Added an enamel wash to the clay plaster to make it less flat it did turn the shade a bit too close to the wood though… oh well lessons learned for next time 😂

I should probably use a lamp to light up the inside for Fotos so it doesn’t t look blurry or strangely colored… but there is something oddly satisfying about the lamplight falling through the hole and windows and the shadows it creates on the stove 😊

I have not been working only on the stove the past nights, the walls also taking shape! It’s not completely done yet though 😁 A house ripped in half would not have pristine plaster but rather some decorative battle damage #histscalemodels

That stove looks damn fine though 😎

It is 7. yes I very much regret this.

Message for future me: It’s 1:30 I painted my stove. I will regret this in a few hours.

Extra low tide with extra much mud for all the scale model mud enjoyers

I want to go home and play with my house.... All I have of it is a blurry picture of 1 am and whenever I look at it I see spots that still need some work 😂

Happy Monday! I am late for work and very sleepy because I had to work on a house at 1 am and a moment ago…. Forced myself to leave 😂 Hope everyone is having a great week!

I’m not entirely used to the new view yet 😂 But the attic starts to take shape! #histscalemodels

I need to remember to tag my Scalemodel posts, I always forget it lately 😅 Makes me wonder though how far my House project actually fits the #histscalemodel tag. On one hand it is placed in a modern/fantasy setting but the house itself is stuck in April 1986 It's probably still too much fantasy 😝

I’m missing my vacation 😅 Anyways did some small stuff and added the actual window and door frames. The inside starts to look presentable I think it’s time to paint it and make it „less presentable“ 😂

We're getting close! This bad larry needs a pin wash, an oil filter, and then I can start on the dirt and mud and grime. 😎

The newer Spalah stuff really gets more ridiculous! Like this 1/35 boot has freaking Shoelaces! (That I will totally break 😂)

Guess who knocked down her beloved tiny bike while putting stuff in the wip storage cabinet? Of course it broke. I glued it back together but it is still very visible… I should go to bed before more Desaster happens 😔

Did I underestimate how big a 1/16 Sevaman would be? YES. Do I regret buying 1/16 Sevaman? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! 😎

Package secured! Costed me 21€ customs duty though 😅 Anyways can’t wait to get home!

Happy first day of work!

Oh I had not realized that one of my stickbugs has chosen quite the fancy color scheme while I was gone! 👀 It will probably turn to brown in the end, they always do… 🪲

Here we go! Tinted the mortar into a light gray and gave it a quick coat of matte varnish. Don’t get me wrong glazed bricks looked nice but I don’t think it fits the house 😝 It’s just a little chimney but this honestly was a fun and satisfying build!

That’s actually not too bad for a first try with miniature brick wall! I hope the Vallejo plastic putty I smeared in there is not shrinking too much, we will know in an hour or so 😂

Noooooooooo why had the Spalah package to arrive while I was at the convenience store?! The dhl truck literally drove off when I arrived home!!!!! Now I have to wait till Monday to search for the package 🥲

Ehhhh let‘s go with „paranoid“ I gave it a quick blast of gloss varnish in hopes it survives what I am about to do to it next 😂

Would you cover bricks in gloss varnish before applying mortar or believe in fate that the paint survives? Asking for a friend.

Need to figure out how to paint it and do the plaster tomorrow!

My day in a nutshell: > We got completely obliterated in the stalker Event. > I won a shared second place in the Stalker Creative Contest together with a friend from Stalktober 💖 > I build a Chimney. > Snow. A lot of Snow.

In a little less than 1 Hour is the final fight... we lost everything. We will probably lose this one as well.... BUT I GOT THE FINAL ARTIFACT AND NOW HAVE EVERY IMAGINARY ITEM! ✨ Now I kann die in peace.

From the collection of „not very exciting but needs to be done“: Window and door frames.

Who remembers these guys? 😜 I‘m a bit rusty haha

I‘m also back home since yesterday, and started to build the stove. First intended to go with foam but for some reason I have a lot of wood… Anyways covered it in plaster afterwards. So far so good 😁

Imaginary Weapon Update: I got the Silencer and The Scope!! 😀 And we get to keep all our artifacts now, so all I miss is the strange flower 🔥 I hope the event lasts a few more days, because today's fight sounds pretty "final." (By the way, we're totally losing right now 😂)

Oh…oh no xD I still had the tab of the SPALAH Shop open and when I wanted to close it I saw they added new 2026 products. And of course I instantly had some ideas. But I will resist, WIP projects first!!!! (For now xP)

Someone stole the top of the windmills! 😱

Did I really just loose followers because I keep posting about my imaginary gun? Not gonna lie this is kinda funny 😂

FFFFFFFFFFFFIIIIINALLY!!! Also got a jellyfish but I think I keep my weird bolt 😁 Now I only need to find the two attachments and maybe the third Artifact… #sorryIAmStillObsessedWithTheStalkerDiscordRPGEvent

Diorama inspired by this newspaper photo. I wanted to build a Panzer IV but show it captured or destroyed. This one is now on display to help sell bonds. Tamiya tank, I Love Kit tank transport, Tamiya, Miniart & Masterbox details & figures Here's the final result. This is a thread. #histscalemodels

Yey Spalah shipped my big order *excited screeching* It’s actually the first time I ordered directly from them, they had a 25% Christmas sales 😝 So I got a 1/16 Stalker figurine and a lot of accessories for my house 👀
