From a different era.

Me in 1987: I'm not gay!
Me in 2010: I'm sooo gay!
Me in 2024: Older & even gayer.

Matthew 6:5

“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."

The resistance grows. The goal is to make a build based on this poster. Embiggened in the third shot.

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.

There is nothing quite like Ghirardelli's rich hot chocolate and Tom of Finland on a cold winter's night.

Val was in the hospital when Adam Bouska came to Dallas, but I made sure that he still got in the picture. ❤️

I've been intending to get this book since it came out, but it always slipped my mind. I'm glad it didn't this time. :)

I had to write it out to make it real.

Now, where's my damned flying car/personal spaceship?
