“When you pray, don’t be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get."

Mark Hamill shares some wisdom.
In troubling times, people experiencing high stress or crippling anxiety deal with it in different ways. Some have a therapist, some have a deep breathing exercise & some even have a personal mantra.

My little Bandai 1:72 Y-Wing is coming along nicely. Assembly is a joy, as per usual with Bandai kits. The detail is unbelievable for this scale! That's a good thing, but painting is gonna require a steady hand.
This will look really cool displayed next to a Messerschmitt and a Spitfire! ❤️

Tonight's midnight movie feature. This movie is said to be an inspiration for Ridley Scott's "Alien."
It's a pretty decent story for its time.

Since this little vintage model had absolutely no cockpit interior, i decided to scratch one rhat would at least be sufficient when seen through the canopy. Gotta love sheet plastic!

I'm working on my Monogram 1:72 Bf-110E. Since it was tooled in 1967, the cockpit "detail" is a pilot figure glued into the cockpit.
So, I'm scratch-building a basic cockpit that will look convincing thru the canopy. Still a WIP.

Quick mid-movie spoiler-free review of Section 31: the longest 90-minute movie I have ever seen. ST5 is no longer the worst Star Trek movie.
What a disappointment.

This 1:72 Messerschmitt Bf-110 was the very first model I ever had, when I was 6 back around 1969. I figure it's about time I gave it another shot with less rudimentary skills.
