A quickk trawl through the Bolt-Action website identifies it as an
ACV - Indian Pattern Mk II armoured car. It's a vehicle I was unfamilair with until now.

Three pages of waffle to justify reming a + sign. Wonder how much they got charged for that by some advertising agency?

Royal Enfield motorcycle with chrome tank, fishtail silencers and leather solo saddle.

I spotted this Royal Enfield Bullet in my local supermarket car park.
Nicely modified, I’m particularly taken with the engraved leather solo saddle.

Troo dat 😉

* invites you into their fully equipped workshop bigger than my house containing a million dollars worth of tools and machinery.

Maybe if he keeps walking?

Curious. What's the vehicle. Some kind of tankette?

Very first Emperor's Champion in lovely, lovely Finecast. Bought the week it came out.
Never opened. By the time I got around to building it the full horror that was Finecast had provoked a bit of a storm.
Try getting one for that price now, though.

Cave Orc warrior from Highland Miniatures. I thought I’d try him in blue rather than the usual green just to be different.

Make sure and add the sequel to your list.

Tonight’s trip down memory lane. An evening with Nik Kershaw in Haddington.
We’re promised some tunes and some anecdotes. Needless to say he’s also promoting a new album.
As you might expect it’s an older crowd 😎

Mulguy.

While doing the West Highland Way I was asked by someone for directions to Mullgie.

Scary how true this is.

I understood it to be extremely forward planning. When I was there in the 80s the story was that the whole building was slowly sinking. Eventually that door would be needed to gain access 🤔

I highly recommend BioStrip to get old paint off of your miniatures. On this 54mm Inquisitor model I got recently it was so thick it obscured the details.
However, I’d recommend not leaving it soaking in the stuff for 4 days (I totally forget) if you are using it on plastic models.

His English accent made me smile. Trying to sound as close to the originals as possible, I’d guess, and he probably wasn’t even aware of doing it.

Henry Rollins on The Ruts is worth hunting through YouTube for. He’s a very serious fanboy for the band. I’d somehow missed the fact that he was also stand-in vocalist for a benefit gig for their guitarist.

Superb job on the tartan. Must have taken ages to get it that clean.

Telling on themselves right there.
They know what they are.

Dammit! this is the Sprint ST955i 🤦

Barbed wire wrapped mace is certainly on point.

Depends on the resin, of course, some are more flexible than others. You should be good for straightening swords, rifle barrels and small flat objects.

People have had to do this with Forge World resin kits for years.

Yes you can. Treat it gently, though.
