The end of plastic model videos on youtube.
Wumm replied to Sir Desmond Glazebrook's topic in General Discussion
I just this morning received a YouTube suggestion on my phone this morning from Google, for a video review by Andy's Hobbies. I have only ever visited his YouTube channel the one time, last weekend to view the above content. I think this is the type of thing they're trying to limit through legislation. -
Silver Wings also released the Cr32 and Cr42 in 1/32nd scale. Unfortunately, I don't think there would be a viable market for a 1/32nd SM79, although Tigger has a Vac variant on offer I believe. The PCM kits are OK, I would love a Tamiya or even Hasegawa version of the C202 or 205 in our scale to see how they fair with the subject.

Congratulations to all Harv... Got the College fund started yet? S

To me, it looks like some horrid mashup between a Delorean and some hokey Monorail car found inside a Villain's Lair from a 1960's Bond film... which is a little ironic, as the DB5's bulletproof windshield from Goldfinger seemed a lot more effective. It's a no from me.

No. A chocolate bar... Very slowly melting. -

To be a Mountie, you must first master the Bison. Then apparently you proceed to becoming a Bounty. Although I'm not having a bar of it. Only then will they let you on a Horse. Apparently it's a thing. -

Andy (or anyone else in his position) doesn't need cookies enabled to make money from YouTube videos. Andy already has a tenth of the screen taken up by his Online Store's logo. If you follow his YouTube channel, you won't need to search for his videos. If you like his videos, you can already choose to support him without being sent ads targeted specifically at you by the carriage service. It's going to be a Law apparently. There are other Laws that people may not agree with, but have to abide by. Human beings are intelligent creatures and will work out ways to get around this. For instance, you can't drive at Highway speeds through the middle of Towns... Sounding the death knell to Online Modelling videos sounds to me like saying "Well, I can't speed through Town anymore, so I'll just quit driving altogether." Don't let the Gretas of the World win. -
Yes it is, Especially as the Zoukei Mura He-219 kit comes with it's own cast white metal ingot included as ballast.

What is on your bench right now ? Share a picture :)

Hans wears the M43 pattern Anorak in a custom Splittertarn 31 finish, in a generous cut with hood and three-quarter interior lining in Rabbit fur. The perfect look for the local Garrison Gadabout, or while evading marauding Allied Jabos in the field. 50 Reichmarks from Kleider Schwäben, or lifted from the nearest corpse. Also available in Field Grey. -

It seems as if this problem could easily be solved by enforcing sites to administer Do Not Track software. Give the User the choice of whether or not to have their data harvested or not. Content likely to interest Minors casts a very wide net. Regulating this is going to be somewhat akin to attempting to keep a Goldfish alive in your cupped hand, while the water slowly drains between your fingers. -

When the A-10 does squats... Does she go "BRRRRRRT"? Just wondering...

The BK37 in the Ju-87 was fitted inverted from the usual attitude of the Flak or Maritime guns, due to the large breach. It fed from the right on the Stuka, with two rigid clips of 6 rounds each in the right side tray. This differed from the 20mm MG151 or even larger 30mm MK108 guns, which could be fed from either side, and in the case of the '151 even rotated about the axis in Aircraft fitments to allow it to fit inside the Fw-190 outer wing stations. The smaller calibre guns allowed for handed underwing pods, however the BK37 did not.

Wumm replied to Martinnfb's topic in General Discussion
Judging by his grubby fingers above, he's either been officially entered into their Database... or he's been dying the Busby's black. Either one, perhaps both. -
Something rather disturbing in the hints and tips area.

Just stick to fondling plastic Dale. The simple things in life are often the best. -

He is off smelling the Daisies at Her Majesty's pleasure. As opposed to the Duke of York's pleasure. Which never happened apparently. S -

It's a figure for the D-Day build I'm doing over in that section. Originally an SS Officer, I'm changing the head and converting him to Wehrmacht service, with an Anorak in Splittertarn 31 pattern. This is a little ambitious; but I want to give it a crack, as you never know what you're capable of unless you venture outside the comfort zone. Doing small sections at a time helps give the eyes a break. -

HobbyBoss A-26 Invader: Holy Thread Drift, Batman!
Wumm replied to Clunkmeister's topic in General Discussion
He does this on a regular basis, and continues to get a pass on it. He complained long and hard about the pre-release photos of ZM's Ta-152 kit almost a decade ago, where the panel above the heat exchange was shown elevated in some shots. To the point where his behaviour was becoming embarrassing, and I called him on it. Following that, he deleted all his posts, then complained to Kevin Futter, who expected me to apologise. The complely ironic thing about it, is that he now stocks ZM kits on his online shop! And were he on this Site carrying on in the manner he has for he last week elsewhere, I'd have called him on it as well (much as Rog did)... Fine upstanding Member of the Modelling community or not. -

OBC? I must say, I never experienced any of that kind of service from TOS. Although in hindsight, LSP_Matt did his level best to screw me over though! -
HobbyBoss A-26 Invader: Holy Thread Drift, Batman!
Wumm replied to Clunkmeister's topic in General Discussion
Yes, he is. He's even a Member here, although rarely contributes, which in and of itself is puzzling. The particular individual he keeps waging a personal war against has actually been banned from this Site; Radu could save himself a lot of grief by simply avoiding that Site altogether, rather than continue to conduct petty slanging matches in an environment that refuses to enforce their own rules. -
Heretic! Otherwise, thank you for the wonderful photos Phil. S
