Right, that is me done with the Airfix Shackleton. A very good kit, great decals and in the end a good looking plane. A few mistakes and a few things I will do differently next time but overall happy with how it's turned out.

Top modelling tip.

Don't ever get the base of your thumb next to sidecutters when cutting sprue. It hurts a lot. The cut is narrow but deep.

I just can't leave the Hinomaru alone. A significantly more modern offering from Tamiya.

The scheme will not please a single purist. Some argue it doesn't exist, those that say it does cannot agree on the colour. 🙄🤪🤔

Guess what....I don't care.

Nakajima A6M2-2...basically a Zero with floats. A 1970's vintage kit by Tamiya. Cheap and a quick bit of fun.

Soviet SU-18 self propelled gun. It never went into production, top heavy, narrow gauge and only held 4 shells.

Prototype roll out day, 10th October 1930, the ever-present commisars are not happy.

Kit by HobbyBoss 1/35. Loved making this little one.

If I was him I'd stay away from windows and cups of tea.
When his failure comes next GE with perhaps a another few MPs at most, with Putin's KGB Mafia Oligarchy Russia increasingly close to total economic meltdown, if not as soon as hoped, his paymasters will not be impressed.
Nowhere will be safe.🤷🏻‍♂️

Todays entertainment. Battle of Eylau, 7-8 February 1807. After 5 hours of intense play we replicated history by reaching a bloody inconclusive end.
