Indeed, though, as time has progressed, I'm finding satisfaction in finding more 1/72 and 1/144 models as well as 1/1000. Obviously, much of sci-fi is more fantasy-fi, but I do like being able to compare and contrast...I find a 1/72 Star Fury and even a Runabout fairly credible,...

I can recommend trying to find this one (it's expensive, 13.5€ a bottle) but you gaven't tasted anything like that...

In my youth I used to work as a modelmaker for architects and we would get “dichlo” delivered in 12 litre glass jars. One fellow dropped a jar in the paint room and smashed it. The fumes melted his sinuses and cured him of hayfever for the rest of his life 😵

Yes. I ordered something in January that just arrived 2 days ago.

Brexit didn't work, after all. :roll:

Wishing every member and their family all the very best for a happy Christmas and a most prosperous New Year (particularly on the model workbench). And, of course, stay safe, one and all. :D

If you can find older copies of the Hobby Japan modelling/trade magazine they used to have page after page of Gundam dioramas often posing the mobile suits with scratch built vehicles such as the submarine carriers and a kind of land ship amongst other designs. I think they...

Pretty difficult to get inebriated on that ration. Definitely a case of don't drink it all at once. :shock:

And they only got three minutes up there. Come on guys if you're going at least give them an orbit. One lousy orbit.....

I mean a properly set up balloon can make it to half that height.

Good on them for the effort but I kinda feel like someone who has seen the Concorde being...

A big visitor yesterday in Bremen. An Antonov An-124 of Volga-Dnepr Airlines came.
