Yeah that turret is kind of crazy 😅

Ah, thanks, I think I used to follow this guy on the 'other' site.
Yeah, it's really nice. Grew up watching Voyager, first star trek series I watched regularly.
Cat25 winner (diorama, any subject), "what if?"
One more..
Nice Me262 (1/48) + lovely discussion at the bench.
Shackleton.
This jet is from thunderbirds (I think), APC behind it is from Aliens. I hear the latter (the real prop) was a converted airport utility vehicle.
Needs no introduction 😅
A few photos from Scottish National Scale Model Show in Perth. Nice atmosphere and very friendly participants. If you see your work here please tag yourself 🛩️ #scalescotland26
Attended last year, enjoyable and Perth is also worth visiting.
Correct 😅 yes I've seen that thing in the sprue and it's already giving me nightmares!
Hull sealed and primed.

Window shopping. Couple of local antique/pre-owned shops selling kits recently.
Taking notes 📝
An older vehicle on the way. Good going so far. Some minor damage had occurred in the box but fixable. #histscalemodels
Nice gritty winter scene, hope it does well ❄️
Shackleton (IWM). Look at that nose 🛩️
Let's get muddy. Does this stuff need to cure - does it solidify after a while?
Looking forward to this one 😊
A lot of potential here. If I remember correctly there is a lot of gothic architecture in the grim dark future so perhaps something along those lines. Medieval piscina for reference.
Looks pretty good to me 😊
Looking good.. Love the look of the Churchill.
Calling this done for now. I felt that it really needed something else, so I added a stardrive section underneath the main hull. Might drop some lore underneath this post later.
Some refinements to the previous design, now with a half-moon bow. This is intended to be a command ship. No idea if I can actually print this but might be worth a try..
A (slightly) more organic ship design..no names assigned yet.
All things considered that is a rather nice looking fuselage ✈️
Sketch of a spacecraft.
Something I'd like to attempt in 2026 is 3d printing some original designs.
Merry Xmas from Maple 🎄
Channel hasn't been very active lately, sorry about that. Anyway, did you know that LEDs can be powered using hot water?
Well, this sucks.
My guess is something near 1:35, not sure exactly 🤔
Model diorama of torpedos being loaded into a submarine.
Planning to go to scale Scotland in September. Some nice displays last year.
Looks good to me. Artistic freedom/expression is inherent to any creation; scale models included ☺️
Looks like this is going to turn out really nicely 😃
