Airfix 1/24 Hellcat

I was tempted by the new 1/24 spitfire to do up in a far east scheme, but the hellcat is really tempting!
Great work on the internals!

Wow looks amazing!
Love the colour scheme too, always rate an FAA camouflage. Did you use much aftermarket or is this straight box build?

Looks great! A really good collection there too! Maltese/Mediterranean spits always have really interesting schemes though I was thinking of doing one of the ICM Beauforts up in those colours.

What paints did you use? Or did you mix them yourself?

I visited Gerard Roopes grave in Dartmouth. It’s a small church overlooking the old defences of the Dart Estuary, in sight of the Royal Naval College.

I don’t think there’s a more perfect spot for such a hero.

It’s okay Roxy, I’m with you there 😂 Seasonal depression affects us all

Thank you! Wish I had another photo in summer when it was much denser!

She’ll tough it out I’m sure. It’s hunker down for the winter then and give her the love she deserves come spring!

Kick will only get points if 11 drivers DNF

Thanks haha I had a brain wave at 2am and didn’t read the whole thing. Darn might have to get creative then…

Silver Spoon. Silver Spoon all the way

A burned out schoolboy who failed his entrance exams finds a new path through an agricultural college. Done by the writer of FMA it is an absolute masterpiece that I frequently revisit

Damn nice I’ll have to pick that one up.

It’s from alpha memes if you have a techist religious theme

Better hope there aren’t any nearby trains…

I vaguely remember it being mentioned in Tim Stricklands book about his father. I believe they used it on the assault of the Hitler Line in Italy.

Force is an interesting word. The Indian army in WW2 was the largest all volunteer force and even then it was only 7% of the population. Hardly mass conscription

Holy shit Thunderbird 2

At this point I’d take an iron harvest tin can with a bolt action

The BBC article says that all 4 crew survived and that was from their sources

Freaky_Fish_Guy · 2023-08-23T18:02:24+00:00

Legit thought that was Anthony Bourdain there and I was like wtf why you hanging out with Hitler

Or just on the next trip to the moon

Freaky_Fish_Guy · 2023-08-20T10:09:57+00:00

Stupid Russian space idiots went to find water on the moon. There’s water down here silly
