Mä en aivan täysin tajua että mitä tämmösellä ees saavutetaan? Jos kirstun pohja jo paistaa, niin eihän tällä menoja karsita silti. On meillä päättäjät. Kuten @hollylalarebel.bsky.social sanookin, työnantajanhan tuo pitäisi maksaa että tää neronleimaus toisi jotain hyötyäkin 🙄
”tekemätöntä pientä työtä riittää esimerkiksi kunnissa ja laitoksissa, kokoomusnuorten puheenjohtaja Binga Tupamäki perustelee.”

No jos töitä riittää niin siitä TYÖSTÄ PITÄÄ TYÖNANTAJAN MAKSAA PALKKAA eikä valtion toimeentulotukea!
Tässä jutussa media ihme kyllä käyttää oikeaa termiä: PALKATON TYÖ
Kokoomusnuoret: Kaikki tukien saajat töihin
Valtiovarainministeri Purra on ehdottanut tukien varassa oleville maahanmuuttajille palkattomia töitä.

Nyt ollaan jo 1990-luvun laman luvuissa:

Tilasto­keskuksen mukaan kuukausitasolla näin paljon kon­kursseja on ollut viimeksi vuoden 1997 lokakuussa.

Viime vuonna Suomessa haettiin konkurssiin yhteensä 3 906 yritystä, mikä oli eniten 30 vuoteen.

Tammikuussa vireille 385 konkurssia – korkein lukema miltei 30 vuoteen

Cars are pain...

Photo 1: find neutral safety switch

Photo 2: found it after a liberal spray of brake cleaner.

New part didnt help with no crank issue, by the way.

Photo the third: ripped this bastard out since it didnt do its job of being a starter relay.

German engineering at its finest.

Without naming your job, tell me something you say ober and over again at work.

No niin. Lapseni, 10v ja 12v, lupasivat, että mikäli saan tälle postaukselle vähintään 1000 (tuhat) tykkäystä, niin
1. Saan ottaa nuoremman lapsen syliin
2. Saan laittaa esikoiselle minkä kampauksen haluan.

Joten pliis, tykätkää? 🥺

And one from teddy fur. I have done them with the airbrush in the past, but this is just with a paint brush.

My collection of finished 1/35 ww2 tanks (with a few "finer" 1/72's and a really tiny tiger). Need new display boxes like these badly, dont want the M5 or 7TP to get all dusty. 7TP holds extra sentimental value. Got it from my daughter (then at 6 yrs old) as an x-mas gift in 2024.

Been calling these two fellas Pat and Mat (at the very least Czech, Slovak and Finn 80's & 90's kids know) for a while now. Decided to not include them with the Tiger, and gave them a more approppriate coloring to match their names 😍

Done.

My first finished Tiger 1 in 1/35.

Toned down streaking, minor fixes here and there, even painted the commander. I'm not that comfotable with figurines, as i just cant get the face details right ever. So i just added deck tan for skin and gave it a dark wash.
January 13, 2026 at 11:45 PM
Nearing the point of this being done.

Some minor cleaning left to do, chippin went ok ish, and yeah, i know it prolly should be red brown chips instead of dark grey, but these colors just work together better in my opinion.

Should i make the turret less streaky though?

Not sure if i went a bit over the top with the streaking... But other than the top of the turret it looks fairly ok.

A bit more of the Tiger 1 progress.

Decals done, panel lines.... Messy and needs some touching up, rust added, cleanup needed for that too. Soot came out nice on the first go though, butnneeds some blending still.

Overall, making ok progress.

Iskäviikonloput 21 neliön yksiössä 4- ja 7-vuotiaiden tytärten kanssa on aina kaaosta. Mutta tääl myö vaa selvitää. On nua mainioita mut ei mul silti viel pää riittäis aktiivisempaan vanhemmuuteen...

Ärsyttävä häpeäpilkku elossa se. Mut kukin sen mukaan mitä jaksaa antaa vaa. Ilosia nuo ovat silti

Them intrusive thoughts are back again.

Looked so good on the SAS Pink Panther I'm almost giving in to those thoughts.

Well this is super annoying.

Am i just being dumb here or is this axe just molded as a mirror image compared to the tank molding and instructions? What am i missing? HALP!

Pretty rare though, this must be the first time i'm having even the slightest issue with Tamiya kits

Another one in the works for this year. On a bit of a roll with my pile of incomplete kits. This time it's early Tiger 1 by Tamiya in 1/35 scale.

color may not be correct for north africa units, but i just love middlestone with dark grey chipping so i'm going with that.

Calling it done.

Not much more to add, except for an antenna, but i need to get a new display box before that so i know how to bend it to fit in.

Had to custom make the tow cable and its ends+fixing points. Added a rope for stowage, and gave the whole thing a subtle rust wipe. #histscalemodels

May need to redo this 🙄 for some reason its always super difficult for me to get the spare tracks look decently rusted, but still believeable. This looks like it was fished from sea in Normandy after a decade or two. Not something they'd have right off the bat.

Better stick with buckets 😂

Planking.

And wood graining training... Been slacking off and it shows... But in my defence, i had a rough autumn 😂

Getting better though... And realized i need to do some more work on the spare treads and their rust...
December 30, 2025 at 9:06 AM
Also, added some random decals to boxes. And a rustbucket. Need to work on my mini scale writing and rewrite the W for the water canister it would seem. And repaint them both anyway.

As per @dr-robonator.bsky.social suggestion, i did a bit more work on the plank in the front of the Jumbo. I think the thickness (hehe, thicc plank for a thicc tank) and general roughness is fairly close now to the references. Couldnt find balsa sticks or leftover photoetch "sprues", so no brackets
December 30, 2025 at 1:10 AM
Added a bit of an unnecessary detail to Jumbo, by throwing in an engine dressed up as Ford GAA. Had to make the rear top hatch grating see through by sanding the parts thin enough for it to happen easily "on its own". Best thing is, you cant even see the darn thing 😂

Took a while to get back to being ok after breakup.

Got to building a kit I bought just before all that happened.

Here's my attempt at a Sherman Jumbo.
Still requires some highlights, soot and rust effects, but all in all, I'm pretty surprised how well it turned out

Biisi joka vähän herätteli. Ero tapahtu, mitäs sitte? Se ihminen ei ollut enää pitkään aikaan se sama johon rakastuin, ja uusi versionsa oli minulle haitallinen.

Paska olo, meni vuos hukkaan mutta kieltäydyn paskomasta itseä enempää.

Luovutan itteni universumin vietäväksi mihin ikinä se viekään.

Semmone syntymäpäivä tänään...

Erosin ihmisestä joka tuntui sielunkumppanilta. Onpa paska fiilis.

Eniten ärsyttää että tiesin tän tulevan ku ensimmäiset merkit ilmesty. Aina sama kaava näissä. Tiedänpä luottaa intuitioon jatkossa paremmin.

Aidosti sellanen olo et ei ny jaksais enää tämmöst.
