One Kawasaki ZX-12R engine, as always with Tamiya it was a pleasure to paint and build. Next up is the frame.

#JustForFunScaleModels Stug is going great for #JFFLetterB. Oil work on the panels and dirt using oils in the recesses. Tools being painted too. Going to build a frame on the rear next to hold the stowage in place. Loving this one. 😀

Hasegawa 1/24 Jaguar XJS finished. I fought myself all the way on this one, it's not a bad kit. As you can see the decals are fubar but with the help of AI they are there for one picture. Very pleased with the glass surrounds for once.😂👍

@Shadowc40481222 Rich. I really feel for you, with everything else you didn’t need this.

@DrChrisParry It’s called learning from your mistakes a simple concept. They know what they did on Coventry and what didn’t work and those things that did work but couldn’t save the ship and use those lessons now.

Why is RN firefighting training today based on this event?
The fires were not contained and the ship sank.

#OnThisDay 1982 Type 42 Destroyer HMS COVENTRY is lost during action with Argentine Aircraft in which several bombs hit. 19 sailors died, most of which were in the Operations Room and Dining Hall areas where bombs the hit. RN Firefighting training today still based on this event

@RDPHistory @WandererSmurf The warhead on an Exocet is a 165kg shaped charge/blast/frag warhead designed to destroy warships not a 9 kg frag warhead designed to kill a densely packed military aircraft

@WandererSmurf Except a Sidewinder doesn't hit you with 15,000 tons of force... an Exocet does!

May 25th 1982: The second Exocet now flies towards Atlantic Conveyor, following in the wake of the first. It slams into the ship, sending debris flying everywhere and causing "splashes in the water about a quarter of a mile away" recalled Prince Andrew who saw it...

@RDPHistory That must have brought Andrew out in a sweat 🤔. Sorry couldn’t resist that.

@ModelowyGracz @Rheumatoidman Welcome to the party, 👏👏

I’m joining the #JFFLetterB challenge.
I’m building a Boulton Paul Defiant Mk.1, 1/72 scale by Airfix.
I started it yesterday live during a presentation of my models at an event in Lublin (Poland).

@Isabell61337490 Brilliant. It even cleans iron oxide from cast aluminium brake calipers and chrome plates things. 40 years as a professional engineer says WHAT A TOTAL CON. Be careful
