There's 44 years between these photos! I was lucky to do what I was born to do with my life π₯² #avgeeks #aviation
Proud to be asked to draw the cover for @2000ad.bsky.social 50th Anniversary!π₯
The 2000 AD Annual 2027 is out 25th November. Itβll be available for early pre-order from the 2000 AD website on Wednesday. #iamthelaw #dredd
Back after a long break! Been busy with work and family stuff, including unwell parents π but had time to build a couple of models, including this monster 1/8 scale Porsche 917K by Pocher. #histscalemodels #scalemodels
1/72 B737 progress continues... trying to get it finished by Christmas. Primer is on, using Halfords automotive filler primer to cover all the many sanding abrasion marks, there was a LOT of sanding involved! #histscalemodels #scalemodels
1/32 F-104G Starfighter, Royal Netherlands Air Force. Italeri kit and Dutch Decals used. Built for a former KL Starfighter pilot and commissioned by his son (also a pilot), my work colleague and friend π #histscalemodels #scalemodels
B737 progress continues in 1/72...wings, flaps and slats attached. This is a big ol' beast! #histscalemodels #scalemodel
1/72 B737 progress: I'm using the aftermarket 3D-printed flaps set from LACI. They are a bit warped as produced but should fit ok. Cutting the flaps out of the kit wings was nerve-wracking but I had to do it differently to the instructions to ensure the wings didn't warp. #histscalemodels
B737 build is cracking along... wheelwell interior and fuselage completed. This really is a limited run kit! Fit is generally okay but parts need a lot of preparation and the windows are terrible. Much putty will be required π«€ #histscalemodels #scalemodels
Two finished in a month! This is some kind of record for me π
Lockheed F-5E Lightning (Italeri 1/48) and Virgin Galactic VSS Unity space vehicle and VMS Eve carrier ship (Revell 1/144)

#histscalemodels Time for one more build this year I think! BPK πΊπ¦ 1/72 Boeing 737-800. It's a big, short-run injection kit, should be a lot of work but an interesting build
