I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.

On a side note this is also why I made a second account for NAFO it is not that I am not interested in nafo posts (Quite the opposite) but it's an very active, huge community. Our scale Model community is far smaller and the posts would completely get lost there. I want to see my Model Friends! 😜

I would say this is normal honestly. 😅
I always check out the accounts. If they are these "Follow half of blue sky bot accounts" I even block them right away.
I want to see the stuff that interests me on my timeline and I don't want it to be completely buried by other things.

Yeeeeeeeep 😂
In the dark corner of the house where it will be placed you can only see the white parts and it looks like dumb face and I can not unsee it!

What can I say, it’s an electrometer, it is tiny. My handy refused to focus on it!

Because I wasted the whole weekend (again) I decided to finish at least something (and therefore go to bed far too late)

Enjoy tiny electrometer on ominous fleshy background.

Very relatable!
But at least you worked on your Models 😂
I wanted to do so many things... like planting grass around my toilet, building windows,...
But then the Weekend was suddenly gone 🫠

I have the terrible habit of wanting to do scale Modeling all week long, but when the weekend finally arrives, I spend the whole day drinking coffee in my pajamas and playing video games

Okay, #histscalemodels... It isn't DONE done, but it's 99% done. Only thing to do is fill in the dirt between the tracks and the ground and we are golden. Glamor shots to come... at some point 😅

Congratulations! 😃👍

Thank you, Matthew!

I‘m glad you convinced me to get it done 😂

🤣

Dirt makes everything better 😝

Thank you! 😁

yep! 😁

hmmmmmmm yummy mold~
(Mein Beileid, ich hoffe die neue ist besser!!! 😂)

While studying Ukrainian wood burning stoves I learned that mine is technically in the wrong place. They were usually placed on the northern wall and the northern wall has no windows. This was done for optimal heating because these houses have no isolation. (I wanted stove AND windows though xP) Another interesting fact is that the stove is made from bricks and had a connection to the ground. They where therefore prone to draw moisture from the ground and start rotting, especially when not in regular use. I tried to replicate this also on the model

Nice and filthy as a proper abandoned house should be. I still tried to keep the walls mostly white because I did not want to weather the stove too much. I might add more at the end

House has some moisture issues now 😜

Hopefully without trouble!
I‘m still waiting for mine. They have to order parts to replace the ones they butchered 😐
(The new temples will be too long again though, maybe I need to do the shortening myself…)

😂 oh nooooo
I still have some hope to finish them!
That's why I now finish the toilet when I feel like doing something different.
(actually I am scared to do the oil wash on my white walls and that's why I'm procrastinating lol)

Yeah well same that's the problem XD
*stares silently at the helicopter still waiting for it's paint*

yeah I know but what do I do if my brain decides I have to build something else RIGHT NOW!!
That's my biggest fear with long running projects 😂

That's true but my biggest worry is that it takes so long that I loose interest at some point 🤣

And thank you, Dave!

I love studying pictures of these old houses but I always end up spotting new cool little things

The reason I will probably spend the whole year building that one house is that I always find new totally unnecessary details to add.
Like those little rusty metal anchors that holde the roof beams

(Also I am incredibly slow 🤣)

Just let it go brrrrr once before weathering or even painting? 😁

I expect you to add extra much mud to it as compensation for it not going BRRRRRRRR across the floor 😜

Just so you know.

I see now why @earlymorningcoffee.bsky.social asked for a duck with tiny helmet! 😂

Ducky!!!

talking about that Duck yesterday.... wich was the first dumb thing that came to my mind.
I just remembered something...

Haha nah she was close to retirement and gave a 💩 about everything and she did not made a secret of it!
To be fair most kids tried to troll her 😅

(But not me! I was a nice kid wich is why the 6 was double unfair 😂)
