Ahhh…. I had visions of a small diorama of the engine with mechanics huddled around it.

In case you missed this among all the outrageous news

How detailed is the engine? Could you display it separately?

Putting it in perspective:
Donald Trump’s name appears over 38,000 times in the Epstein files, while β€œGod” is mentioned only 4,000 times in the whole Bible.

Thanks. I think the core stage was probably the hardest part of the build. On to the solid rocket motors now.

Fly me to the moon… the core stage of the SLS/Artemis. A few self inflicted issues, but I’m happy with how it came out. The little missile is a 1/144 Titain II ICBM. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #Airfix

They’re available in the UK too. Bonus! I think I’ll give them a go on the next project.

I think the name kept changing. It worked pretty good. I could use an oil based wash thinned with odorless thinner and not have any issues. I’ll have to try out Mr Hobby.

I’ve been trying both. I used to use Future, but ran out. Always had good results with that.

I tried Tamiya X22 once and it was alright. I do need to try Mr Hobby. I’ve always heard good things about them.

Can anyone recommend a gloss varnish? I’ve been using Humbrol acrylic gloss and I like the results, but when I try to use a wash, the wash will go right through it. Thoughts and advice greatly appreciated! #scalemodels #histscalemodels

I remember when he was the Governor of the Bank of England and he would be on Radio 4 every so often. It was an absolute pleasure listening to him explain complex financial and economic issues in a way that anyone could understand.
