What car did you pass your driving test in?
fatfingers replied to galaxyg's topic in Vehicle Discussion
I learnt and passed in a Citreon DS3 diesel. Nice little motor that was near on impossible to stall. Took my test at Harehills in Leeds and passed first time, which was a surprise.... If you know, you know! π¬ Regards Steve -
THEM! -- 1954 Sci-Fi movie about giant atomic ants

Not the only place they'd be skid marks if i encountered them! π«£ That's a brilliant diorama, absolutely love it π Regards, Steve -
@FG2Si Really sorry to hear of your loss of Fursnake. She looked quite the character! I've still not managed to bring myself to get another mog after we lost ours last year. Keep looking at our local cat rescue website though, so may end up with one eventually. Regards, Steve

Looking forward to this π Regards, Steve -
Not model related, but i loved this comic when i was a nipper and kept all 15 issues until i ebayed them years ago. Pure nostalgia trip! Oh, and another years worth of building and contents insurance π Regards, Steve

I've had good results in the past using Vallejo Wood with Games Workshop Agrax Earthshade layered on top. Add more Agrax to darken the finish. Also used this for tool handles π Regards, Steve

Which is/was the car you always promised yourself?
fatfingers replied to Farmer matt's topic in Vehicle Discussion
Always wanted a Kia Ceed GT Line, nothing fancy but i liked em from the first day i saw one in the showroom a few years back. Managed to score one on a 73 plate earlier this year and am proper chuffed with it π If time, money and space allowed i'd have a fully restored Rover P6 3500 V8. My dad had a red one when I was a nipper and i absolutely loved it and was really upset when he got rid π Regards, Steve -
Found this on the tube. Some superb photography of Swiss military exercises in 1964. Hunters, Vampires and Centurions all in glorious 70mm Technicolor π Was also nominated for an Oscar in 1966!

I saw it when it was first broadcast in 1984. Was 12 at the time and it really stuck with me. Only been shown on UK tv 4 times, 1984, 1985, 2003 and last night. One of the advisors was the journalist Duncan Campbell who wrote War Plan UK which exposed the folly of UK Civil Defence in 70's & 80's. Book is worth tracking down if you have any interest in the subject (re-print is available on Amazon) The War Game is another BBC nuclear war film from 1965, except it wasn't broadcast on TV until 1985 as the BBC banned it following pressure from the government of the day. It did have a limited cinema release though, and it won an Oscar for best documentary! Mick Jackson who directed Threads also did this.... Regards, Steve

Warhammer 'Skaventide' Age of Sigmar - Grey Seer Figure
fatfingers replied to Mike's topic in Figure Work In Progress
Nice work on the Seer π Have been tempted by the Skaventide box set on more than one occasion, but not that interested in the Stormcast figures so not given in to temptation..... yet! π When i've made any of the GW push fit figures in the past i tend to cut the pegs down or off and then glue the parts together. Will follow this one with interest. Regards, Steve -
Many thanks for the comments guys, much appriciated π Regards, Steve
