#Histscalemodels #ScaleModels Four images of my completed 1/72 “Memphis Belle” from Academy.

New build commencing! 1/537 Reliant. Photoetch parts from greenstrawberry, bridge replacement from Lake Monster Details. I bought a Tamiya electric drill but didn’t realize it was a kit itself, thankfully I didn’t flub the build. #StarTrekModels #ScifiMiniatures #Reliant

Well, Flossie is almost done. I realized that the kit, good as it is, does not include the correct cold weather exhaust🤦‍♂️. Another opportunity to support my favorite model company, Eduard😂 #HistScaleModels

Pre-shading done on the upper hull... Off to the paint shop next. 1/35 #Takom super blitz Panther G Late. #scalemodels #histscalemodels

#Histscalemodels #ScaleModels Years ago I was given a 1957 Revell tooling of the Lincoln Futura concept car. For a very old kit, it came together nicely. I used Tamiya pearl green with a clear finish of Mr. Hobby gloss spray and chrome detailing (what wasn’t already chromed) with Molotow pens.

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels As part of a club “Pre-1975” build challenge, I’m doing the old 1701 from AMT, originally tooled in 1967. It’s wildly inaccurate but one of the rules of the build is no aftermarket parts that weren’t available before 1975.

Hey, there! Whatcha listening to right now?

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels This one feels like it’s finished. 1/700 USS Enterprise from the 2009 movie, kit by Revell, lighting control board by Tenacontrols, masks by Aztec Dummy.

Aztecing. This. Is. A. Pro. Cess. All hand-cut from Tamiya tape/sheet. I’ve actually found it very calming so far, but this represents MANY hours of work and I’m still not finished!

#transisbeautiful First soak in my little pool for the year!

Duuudes I should not be getting this high and listening to Pink Floyd alone. Someone come share this with me!

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels When I start humming the music while I’m working, I know I’m feeling good about it.

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels SO worth the work.

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels I got a bag of 1mm glass beads to use for nav light lenses.

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels All electronics are self-contained. 12v power is delivered by a ⅛ mono audio jack which allows for easy removal and free-spin rotation.

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels TEDIOUS.

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels #starwars May the 4th be with you!

#fluance Accidental light show off the vinyl. Music is Smokebelch II by Sabres of Paradise.

I got my new record player today. It’s from a company called Fluance. It’s real pretty and sounds great! I feel so high-end now.

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels I wasn’t going to start another model but I had ideas about this one. Consider this a proof of concept, kind of a “sketch” on how to do the spinning and navigation.

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels Oh shit! 😂 I was chatting with a cute guy, even talking Genesis, until I sang a male voice song. He picked up his PBR from the table and went back to the bar as I was singing. Anyway, here’s another engine test:

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels The NX-01 in a projected nebula. I’m fairly happy with how this build is turning out! It took a lot to get to this point. It’s been a long road… 😁

I differentiate envy from jealousy in this way: envy is wanting what others have. Jealousy is working to take away from others because you don’t have. I find that I envy my friends who are finding new love and intimate relationships. I want this for them. I ALSO want it for me.

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels There’s a lot of cutting apart and reassembling decals, inserting custom printed ones, to turn it from the NCC-1864 Reliant to the NCC-1887 Saratoga.

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels The Saratoga is coming along.

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels I found a non-working LED on my 1/350 NX-01. A repair team has been assigned.

Colonoscopy this morning, toilet repair this afternoon, grandson this evening. I don’t slow down.

Colonoscopy day. Get yours checked!

#starshipmodels #ScaleModels #scifimodels #spacemodels I’m up way too early. I have a minor surgical procedure in a few hours and I guess I’m nervous. And hungry. So I’m in my workshop.
