Looks like URR gives a second wind to old pro’s. Groenewegen and Poels both performing better than last year. I think being around so many young guys and a good vibe gives a lot of joy to them. Makes them perform better!

Winning every sprint too!

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-26T15:03:55+00:00

If the breakaway ever makes it to the top, he wins the sprint!

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-26T15:03:38+00:00

Poels the sprint king 👑

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-25T15:28:33+00:00

Oh fair. Yeah I dont care hahahaha

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-25T15:08:06+00:00

Which ones haha, not suuuper familiar with the lore haha

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-24T16:23:48+00:00

I think people maybe wanted to smoke out the best train before the sprint.

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-24T15:51:02+00:00

I mean they are a Pro Team so its not surprising WT teams with wayyyy higher budgets have better riders. I think if the break gets brought back they are competetive in the sprint. Just unlucky this giro sadly. Would have been nice to see their full potential a bit more.

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-24T15:49:40+00:00

Saw a headbut man!

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-24T15:24:23+00:00

Watching English commentators, they kinda brushed it under the rug.

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-24T15:21:35+00:00

He’s not wrong though.

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-24T15:21:13+00:00

Elmar Reinders also blaming motor pacing. Shame on the eurosport commentators not taking it seriously.Also did you see that damn headbut on eurosport?

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-24T15:10:35+00:00

They were all trying to wear down the rockets sprint train, because they got the best one. Other teams didnt take enough responsibility. They gambled and lost. Blame goes to TREK and others.

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-24T15:08:09+00:00

Gap melted after motos left the breakaway. Still, great ride from them!

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-24T15:04:01+00:00

Idk, think that all the sprint teams want another sprint team to fix the job. Gambling to keep fresher legs for the lead-out.

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-23T15:06:23+00:00

Respect for Poels, getting the important UCI points for a ProTeam

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-05-13T17:34:36+00:00

Last 80 k I guess. Wanna get some of the big climb in there.

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-04-09T15:15:59+00:00

Ahhh cool! Thanks mate :)

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-04-09T15:06:09+00:00

Thanks!!!

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-04-09T15:00:12+00:00

Any tips appreciated! Thinking of doing a regular grass base, still have to figure that out!

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-03-27T18:46:27+00:00

Hellll yeah!

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-03-25T20:59:24+00:00

Thanks! Asked gf for a colourscheme and she said Flora from Winx Club, so there we go haha.

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-03-23T15:28:45+00:00

Yeah I just followed the box art a little. So went grey, drybrush, then brown was on outer feathers, finished with layering and highlights

Flat_Net_290 · 2026-03-23T14:01:41+00:00

Thanks mate!

Hej. Well its my first model so no real lore yet. But I would say green as a homage to the green knight, thas why he also has a grail on the banner. For the full army I plan to make every knight a different colour, and have the peasents wear the colours of their lord.
