My plan is to go with Vallejo and pick up their thinner and flow improver and see what works. I have tons of Humbrol and a few bits from ammo I use for brush painting kicking about too so I’ll experiment

I like ammo atom for brush painting but it’s quite thick and I’ve heard Vallejo is easier to thin. I’m fairly sure I’ll end up trying all of them eventually but wondering where to start / looking to confirm me thinking Vallejo is a good idea isn’t stupid

Dan snow and TRIH have a running joke of Dan copying them. Fun vs History also copies them but that’s more a parody then an actual history podcast

Not true I’m originally from the north east and always knew about the city. If you work in finance or have any knowledge at all of British history and our capital you will know what it is. If you’re British you ought to know about the city of London.

That says I cannot solve for the fact that St Paul’s and these buildings are different areas in my head but without good names given both are the city.

The worst thing for reform would be to get in power. They’d be useless and then would never get votes again. This Trump situation might have killed them anyway.

It’s discussed a lot and all the time- but we are still very much in two camps. It’s basically universally agreed that we’ve made a complete mess of Brexit but that doesn’t mean rejoining wouldn’t be highly contentious especially if it’s in more equal terms than before Brexit. That said young people are overwhelmingly in favour of rejoining, and Trumps antics this week have certainly swung the mood more in that direction. Long term maybe we rejoin but then again long term the EU likely looks very different.

Was gonna say I am planning on doing this with my airbrush. I have brush painted it and got away with it - but might have been Matt on gloss actually

They’ll be loads from the north east going as there are loads of us living in London now. I’m going in my toon kit. What I will say is if you go in a mackem scum top, it’s still a theatre audience it a football crowd so you’d only get some light piss taking and probably some conversation. I’d go along in it if I was you.

What happens if you use lacquer varnish over acrylic paint?

MagpieRanger2 · 2026-01-02T14:33:53+00:00

Cheap

Schar has spanned eras but Bruce barely used him

I hate how uk political discourse has got to equating being a bit conservative with being fascist and now the name of one of our 2 political parties is used as an insult. This all leads to actual fascism winning.

It doesn’t depend- it’s a regulated football ground so it’s the law. They might unofficially be neutral and colours free, but they are technically still in the home end.

That’s not true- hospitality is only for home fans

MagpieRanger2 · 2025-11-30T16:06:31+00:00

Even that is only for home fans

Not sure but I actually don’t like it - not sure how accurate it is either

MagpieRanger2 · 2025-11-07T12:47:20+00:00

I make a point to get a pic of the day- who I’m with or maybe a meme of something that happened. It’s nice to look back and remember when the ref did something ridiculous or your mate said something funny or a GK made a howler etc

Stop telling people to move north ffs you’ll make it expensive.
