If you live in Clacton, and can vote, why not vote for Count Bin Face?

Another Human artist of Earth using one picture of one of my miniature toy soldier, which may convince you to follow me.

Okay, caveat I've yet to watch Fire & Ash, otherwise these two would be the obvious choices. Sinners is outstanding, and Ballerina is a lot of fun.

Heavy Gear Hunter prop from back in the day.

All the pepperoni @susan-parker.bsky.social

It took longer than I thought, but I've finished repainting my Ral Partha Mk4 prototype. The pink dazzle disruptive camo scheme was inspired by the Swedish splinter pattern used on the Viggen. panther6actual.blogspot.com/2026/04/ogre...

We watched this last night, and it had an alien mech chewing up a bunch of Ranger candidates on their last training day. Total gonzo fun. Hope there's a sequel showing the bigger picture of the invasion.

Went and had a great day out at Herts of Lard @joewargamer.bsky.social

My birthday present arrived from Japan today. My birthday was a couple of weeks ago, but this is glorious.

Been out and about in London at the Natural History Museum to see dinosaurs with family and friends.

And proving when things go wrong, strip back and start again.

Is this?

I get that.

Colour me excited, I reached number 92 on Amazon's Stargate SF list.

Blast from the past, the buildings I made back in the day for Fantasy Forge's BattleTech range of buildings. Bigger pictures on the blog, here: panther6actual.blogspot.com/2025/11/a-bl...

I went to Warfare on Saturday, and I posted pictures of my haul and links to some interesting stuff on my blog. it was good to meet friends and chat. Really made my day. panther6actual.blogspot.com/.../11/warfa...

Mecha Saturday, close-up shots of another Russian quad mech the PBP-69UK (the U is for upgrade, the K for command) Pokhodnaya Boyevaya Platforma – Mobile Combat Platform.

Mecha Saturday, close-up shots of my Pokhodnaya Boyevaya Platforma – Mobile Combat Platform – quad mechs. First up, PBP-69.

Here's my re-painted Dream Pod 9 Caprice conversions for my Bad Dog universe. Russian walkers I call, Pokhodnaya Boyevaya Platforma – loosely translates as Mobile Combat Platform – ready for the tabletop Now with Russian language slogan decals added.

I've managed to take some pictures of my RAFM conversions.

And the final set of photos from our trip to Berlin are of flying into London City Airport, over the Docklands, Dome, and the Splinter.

As I said, we've been to Berlin so, here's some pictures... what I took. ;-)

Susan took me to Pulsed Power & Plasma 2025 Conference, where she presented her poster there. Here's some pics of the Estrel Hotel. Swank personified.

Bad Dog is a must-read for fans of military sci-fi, mecha, and time-loop stories. It blends gritty action, emotional depth, and intricate world-building. If you love Edge of Tomorrow, Starship Troopers, or The Expanse, this book will hook you. tinyurl.com/3uy3b5dc

And my copy has arrived.

Ian Douglas aka William H. Keith Jr. remains one of my favourite writers. Not because he's the best writer of books ever, but because he delivers stories with engaging characters, filled interesting speculation about the future of humanity. Currently reading his latest; Galaxy Raiders Abyss.

I am one with the fourth, and the fourth is with me.

One of mine. Not a really a robot, but a mech suit.

Farage, a reminder of his true nature.

Yesterday at Salute playing with the Lardies the new CoC V2 rules. Kicking butt and taking names. @toofatlardies.bsky.social
