After my modest success with the 1/64 scale shipping pallets, I was thinking about what else I could try to make, and settled on a Jersey barrier and an arcade cabinet. Turned out pretty well.
These are the result of hours of work over a couple evenings. Desktop hobby plotter-cut cardstock & 0.4 mm sheet styrene parts. And Tamiya putty, solvent glue, superglue & acrylic paint.
The Jersey barriers were extremely fiddly and difficult to assemble, though if I make more, I think I've figured out a simpler way to do them.
The arcade cabinet was slightly easier, but seems bare without any graphics or colors on it.
I've realized it's very helpful to put a tiny magnet in the base of these things, to hold them to a stick while painting.

Workbench Wednesday.
Did I mention that I hate the Academy SBD kit? Cuz I hate this kit. I wish I had been taking pictures as I was building it, because this is the 3rd paintjob I did on this kit. The first I just didn't like, then I tried to fix it with the brush. That didn't work either, so I resprayed it with a different medium blue, which I pretty happy with. I forgot that I took the wadding out of the cockpit though, so I ruined that paintwork also. And at some point I broke the rear gunner seat out, which rubs because I want to build it with the canopy open. Kinda want to get this thing over with.
Meanwhile, Ober Holdenburg is going great, I've almost finished connecting the top to the ground. I started with the building up top, and then built the mountain downwards to the ground. Next up will be filling it in to complete the look.

It takes a special cunning to be a brood parasite, disguising yourself as a baby dragon. As cuckoos can mimic the eggs of other birds to lay in their nests, so too do cuckoo drakes use illusion and guile to lay their eggs in the nests of other dragons.
This was one of the first scratch builds I started, and the prompt ‘mimic’ was just the kick in the tail this aardvark needed to finish the stats, lore and design for this creature. The flimsy wings and slender body of the dinos I used made me think this would be a low threat dragon, relying on the protection of others for survival.

All Prey 2017 Operators I've made so far :D
Wanted to show off the Prey 2017 Operator versions :D
First one I sculpted, casted in resin, then hand painted. 2nd one was a scratch build using styrene sheets. 3rd one was 3D printed from a model I designed in FreeCad.
Trying to make the 3rd version viable as a kit, so other people can make their own little robot friend. I also had ideas for making it light up, but that's if it actually works.
Next month is more robots, so let's goooo

Quick progress report: I’m building a Slaughter-class cruiser! I’m taking photographs of just about everything I do on this build with a view to producing a full tutorial somewhere down the line, in case any of you ever wanted to see how the sausage is made.

BEHOLD my tiny, 1/64th scale wooden shipping pallets.
Hand-made, from cut-down wooden coffee stir sticks, using a template I made in Illustrator. Designed for use with Hot Wheels or Matchbox cars. Don't quite have a paint color / wash / stain that I'm happy with yet.

My fav autistic Scottish sapphic queen, a force to be reckoned with and will absolutely chase down a bitch in 8 inch platform heels to hit someone with a bat.
