Looks like York IPMS model show is being moved into the main T2 Halifax hanger rather one of the other smaller WW2 buildings…perfect backdrop

Looking forward to having a table at the Norwich City of Literature Christmas Market, 10am to 4pm, on Saturday 22 November, at National Centre for Writing, Dragon Hall. We'll have the full range of books published by Paul Dickson Books www.pauldicksonbooks.co.uk

It’s Alan Taylor’s birthday today. You remember him. Much-travelled striker. FA Cup matchwinner. And scorer of one of the All-time Great Shit Goals. Loftus Road. 1989. Thank goodness they caught it on camera.

The boys having a cracking evening, ordered all the drinks, he's feeling tipsy and his grand parents turned up. Perfect #dadstreat

So, here we are. November is here. Bit of snow. Starting back into my 1/48 Lancaster. It's huge, but here we go. #Histscalemodels

I find that the existing emojis don't cover the full range of emotions I need to express how I feel about some replies to my jokes. So I've decided to make my own.

Modelling friends. My boss found a couple of bottles of isopropryl rubbing alcohol in the covid leftovers. Is this the stuff that can be used to clean airbrushes etc? Cheers. #histscalemodels #scalemodels

Seems appropriate.😂👍 youtube.com/watch?v=3C23...

One year ago this week, I sold Melody, my little Austin Metro donated to Twin-Cam by the most generous subscriber. Back in 2021, she was very tired, yet very happy, and while I pressed her almost immediately into semi-daily use, some serious work was required. (1/4)

Asking for a friend... 😉

Nearly ready for paint. I somehow have to get the canopy to fit properly 🙄 #HistScaleModels #HeaviesGB

Tanking tonight. Building a less than stellar Revell as my first Sherman. Markings are for a 3rd Armor Div 32nd arm Rgt M4A1 76(W). Can’t find any info on this unit so I’m using “In The Mood” for camo & markings guidance. More weathering and orange recognition panel yet to come. #HistScaleModels

Calling the Gecko Models 1/16 Monty figure complete, not the best of kits in my opinion,came out better than I thought it would, hopefully you all like it 👍😀👍 #HistScaleModels #ScaleModels

The new version of John Bulmer’s book The North looks fantastic but will only happen if it hits its target on Kickstarter. This is a book which needs to be published, please support it if you can www.kickstarter.com/projects/fru...

It's been a while... Big Al, Little Norm and Medium Sized Mrs Swinburne 😊 And Trevor of course: "You've just got to listen to the music."

Hey, #McLaren fans! Where are you? We need to talk about why my drawings are in my studio and not on your wall! Come on, step forward please, let’s have a chat..it’s nearly the end of the 30th anniversary of *that* victory! Come on.. PM for details! #McLarenF1 #WEC #McLarenEndurance #LeMans #F1

I’m calling this done , there are a couple of figures to paint that but these will have to wait until next week after York IPMS Model Show on Saturday. When I get a moment, I need to get the SLR out and redo these and then photoshop a suitable background #histscalemodels

Glamor shots of the jeep; figure below. Just finishing up the base and this little scene will be all done. 👍

Ahh, bollocks!!🤬

My Airfix 1/72 Spitfire Mk Vc is ready. Coming from the 2020 range release for which new molds are used what can be seen in most parts having a good fit (except for the canopy). Airbrushing went better by using other needle sizes, a lower air pressure and retarder. #histscalemodels #scalemodels

Yesterday in Parliament I said that the government should leave X.

Ongoing fun and games with the Embar Bedford breakdown lorry. Snap 1 is a dry fit thingy to see how it will look. I've got some decals from the Hannants cave of wonders in the mail. The wheels and hubs needed fettling but its all good. The results, so far, are really pleasing. #histscalemodels

Good morning all. Bramble the hoglet arrived just before 7pm last night to continue the job of feeding up for winter and valiantly tackled the floor biscuits. 🦔

Going through the slow laborious task of trying to make a lump of resin look human. #histscalemodels

The auction haul. These are some of the mystery kits with so many surprises. Loads of extra parts stuffed in the boxes. Unfortunately some of the mystery kits were already started including some questionable modifications; but still worth the money. #scalemodels #histscalemodels

The MiniArt painters are here…I just liked their poses so couldn’t resist giving them a try…could yet be an epic fail but 🤷‍♂️😊

Starting to look like Trump might be a bit of wrong un. Time will tell.

I’m calling this one basically done … 1/48 Airfix Lysander… one of my favourite ever planes. Airfix have created a terrific kit. Highly recommended. Any errors are entirely my own. #HistScaleModels

Three years ago, after the Martin Bashir scandal, BBC boss Tim Davie tried to prevent future crises by appointing two “external editorial experts” to scrutinise BBC journalism. Oddly, both came from PR rather than journalism. 🧵1/3

This is my White House East Wing. 🫡

Finished another project that had been languishing in my pile of shame. Did my usual trick of painting completely different colours to the box art then deciding I hate it when I’m 1/2 way thru finishing them. #WarhammerCommunity #AdeptusMechanicus #wh40k #Nerdlings

Oh no. Shall we start a Gofundme?!😂😂 www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n...

After ignoring you for 20 minutes, you'd be surprised how quickly employees at B&Q assist you when you try and start a chainsaw…

When you're cleaning our your cupboards and find that old sea otter you thought you'd lost years ago.

Some kids are just remarkable. My eldest daughter's best friend is a refugee from Syria. They met in 3rd grade when she had just arrived in Germany. She then learned German very quickly and they both went to grammar school in 5th grade. Today in 6th grade she's one of the best pupils in their class
