Spent years building up a big following on Twitter, essential for publicising my aviation blog, which I live from. Desperate to leave it & publicise on nicer platforms, but I have too few follows. If you want to help me escape, do give this a share. Much obliged. My blog here: hushkit.substack.com

After a couple of years in storage waiting for the right environment, my study picture wall is starting to take shape. Thanks to @typejunky.bsky.social and @tjgodden.bsky.social for accompanying my grandfather.

After a couple of hours staring at this I now have a Blur earworm. 🤒

Give this guy a follow. His mugs are ace too!
WW2 British Vehicle Markings Deciphered - a thread 🧵

Using the Tank Museum's Comet as an example, we can see the following:

1 - Arm of Service Flash
2 - Bridge Classification
3 - Formation Insignia
4 - Serial Number
5 - Tactical Sign
6 - Vehicle Name

All explained in turn below...

@whwnorthernic.bsky.social I am travelling down to Blackpit on Thursday morning in my camper for WHW Fest. If anyone from the Longridge (Preston) area needs a lift, or if supplies need moving, let me know. I'm volunteering so I'll be leaving in time to get there midday.

I'm getting packed for a house move and I fear this is where my addiction comes into the light. This is just tools, paint and glue. I haven't even dared to look into the stash cupboard yet....

(Not colourised.) #OTD in 1944, the Hawker Tempest in front, flown by Squadron Leader K.A. Wigglesworth fired on a V2 launch site target near The Hague, causing an explosion which destroyed his aircraft and killing him. R.I.P. #WW2 #HISTORY

Who are the folks on here that are interested in scale modelling of any genre so that I can follow you…please retweet if you know me…it’s a much smaller space than X but a much nicer one I think…

#DDAY80GB I'm going to try very hard not to over weather this. I just need to let the Kristal Klear set on the canopy and I'm done. I really enjoyed this Hobby 2000 kit of an iconic aircraft.

#DDAY80GB The easy decals are done, now just 50 or so tiddlers. Does everyone do all of these?!

#DDAY80GB Invasion stripes look epic, especially on a P38, but it means hours of masking up. Luckily, this kit is really robust because there's a lot of manhandling involved.

#DDAY80GB Easy build but now the tiresome filling, scribing, repeat, repeat, repeat

#DDAY80GB Let's see if I can wrap this up inside of a month??

Char B1 work in progress, the French had some weird ideas about what a tank should look like. It's almost like they invented AI images in 1930s....

I can't believe I thought the JV44 variant would be a good idea, but I think it turned out OK??
