  1. Unless my son's colour blindness has become contagious that definitely ain't purple, not even close! 🫤
  2. Ah, the old skull-splitter number plate on the front mudguard. An ex-colleague of mine had an old Norton 16H which he rebuilt and he had all sorts of grief getting permission to attach it as they are now banned. I think the jumper's voice might be a few octaves higher than originally if he doesn't jump high enough!
  3. I remember the film of Raise the Titanic as there was a lot of publicity at the time about how much money it lost. The quote I remember is from Lew Grade who funded and produced it and said 'it would have been cheaper to lower the Atlantic!'
  4. Unusual to get a Tamiya kit that's warped. Their QC is usually pretty good.
  5. All images visible now. Looks excellent, Bruce would be proud
  6. I can tell you parts of Scotland where that would take 2 minutes not two weeks
  7. Nice work all-round, especially on the figures
  8. Is it just me, or can anyone see the images?
  9. Weird, never in a million years would have guessed that acronym meaning
  10. WTF is Pure Barf??
  11. My senior colleague at work has been in Peru over the festive season to visit his wife's family and brought me back this bottle of Peruvian rum As a Scotsman I found it hard to believe that rum could come in vintages like malt whisky but this stuff is beautiful neat over ice.
  12. Is he Ferengi?
  13. Wow, that's a blast from the past. Haven't really heard of Einstürzende Neubauten since a friend of mine gave me a tape of the Halber Mensch album back in the mid 80s. As a teenage metalhead it was certainly something a bit different. He also liked stuff like Atari Teenage Riot and Slime. I have to say my German music listening nowadays doesn't extend much beyond Scorpions, Kreator, Accept and Rammstein. I'm only allowed to listen to Rammstein on headphones as my wife finds it too aggressive.
  14. Looks great, although calling that a windscreen might be a breach of the Trade Description's act!
  15. Like many of our Brit designs, it won't win many beauty contests but functional and badass
  16. Looks amazing Rob and certainly gives no clue as to the grief that was involved in getting it to the finish.
  17. Looks very good Jeroen. Don't know why but reminds me of David Ogden Stiers' character Major Charles Emerson Winchester from MASH
  18. At least she looks like she's a shorthair not a Persian!
  19. The rollbar does seems completely pointless. The drivers would have to hope that the air intake stayed intact to keep their head intact! Safety has thankfully moved on a bit.
  20. Amazing results given you much structure there is in there to potentially disrupt masks.
  21. Christmas present from the wife. First 1/16 kit I've got and it looks really nice in the box. Apparently she's also got the first edition Revell Meteor but I'll have to wait until my birthday for it. 😡
  22. My sincere condolences to you and your family. No parent should have to bury their own child but, unfortunately, it happens too often
  23. I am so sorry to read that Hubert. Wishing you and your family all the strength to get through this time
