One of the joys of social media is finding spectacular work I would never have seen through any other medium.
Japanese modellers never cease to impress me 🙂

And if you look through the photos a little something to inspire those in the #forukrainegb too!

Alright, I think this is all for the Weekend!
Most of the paintwork is done.
I think I will paint on the „you shall not pass“ lines. But not today… 😅
#ForUkraineGB #scaleModels
End result for my f-16 model for this weekend. The paintwork except some small details is done.

The US right is coming for disabled people. Here’s why that threatens everyone
Trump’s administration is dismantling disability rights and education. History has shown this can be a warning sign for all civil liberties

My kit for the #forukrainegb has arrived 😁

I haven't had a chance to dig through it all yet but the packaging was very nicely done.
It will take a while to work out how to display this but I look forward to playing with some ideas 😜

Those who listen to any of the modelling podcasts will have heard of this kit as the current Moosaroo cup subject.
The modelling news has a build review so you can decide if you want to build along 😁

Another from the backlog which I want to share with the good folks at #forukrainegb

The 1/48 ClearProp Bayraktar
I have a few more of these waiting for the decal sheet from Rush Model kits which should have some epic schemes.

Inspired by @tardate.bsky.social posting his excellent build of the same kit and seeing the Ukrainian USV kits from Andrew's Ukraine sea drones being offered as prizes I thought I would share my take on the MikroMir USV on the #ForUkrainegb feed

As I finish another Roden kit, I was reminded that 3 years ago Valery Grygorenko was killed in a Russian attack near his home. Valery created some of the most amazing box art for Roden, including the Vauxhall D-Type Ambulance. RIP
