The Mothman is a new monster figure coming from Pegasus/Moebius later this year. Preorder now in the CultTVman Hobbyshop! www.culttvmanshop.com

My logo has always been my home state of WV. Some would immediately assume I'm a redneck MAGA numskull, but the truth is quite the opposite. And I'm not alone: wvpublic.org/grassroots-m... When grassroots are forming in DEEP RED country ... I take it as a sign, and I'm ready for it ... #Resist

We bring you the latest epic CultTVman video and a look in the box of the Refit Enterprise, plus Monster paints and more. We'll see you at the Atlanta IPMS Show next weekend! youtu.be/dSNsJ_OROIA?...

Finally managed to get to a local-ish #coffee roaster ... Bought a fresh bag, one week old, of Honduras Anaerobic. I knew the smell and taste would be ... different ... It most certainly is, but I like it. Good thing these roasters aren't any closer or I'd be broke again.

You want a man, who has watched his countrymen fight and die, to talk about peace the enemy will not honor, only AFTER he signs away his country's resources. And try to belittle, embarrass and guilt-trip him on live news, expecting him to just sit and take it. A special kind of stupid. #Ukraine

Okay #coffee folks ... I have just: 1.) Took Tim Horton's pre-ground decaf and, 2.) Mixed it 50/50 with Gevalia Traditional Roast and then, 3.) Reground it to powder (1ZPresso JX-Pro S), and finally, 4.) Made a half-caf Turkish How many cardinal sins have I committed? Because it's quite tasty ...

Welp ... finally a prognosis. Chronic Prostatitis. Annoying, but manageable. This flare up has already mostly subsided. Now if I can get this GERD to stop kicking my butt. I guess the old man syndrome is finally starting to kick in.

Finally got the X-Plus Bride of #Frankenstein from @culttvman.bsky.social ... link below. Parts for the bandaged AND gowned versions. USPS mangled the box's top, but everything is there. Hopefully a #Halloween build for this year. www.culttvmanshop.com/NEW-The-Brid... #scalemodel #monster

RANDOM: I was asked today what is the fanciest #watch I own. Welp ... there's a choice between two #CASIO ... 🙃 I've never needed, or wanted, anything else. I did put NATO straps on them, which was a real PITA for the calculator ... but I'll worry about replacing the batteries in SEVERAL years.

Ugh ... absolutely nothing has gone right the past several days ... and this week isn't shaping up to be any better ...

The big hobby show in Japan, Wonderfestival is happening this week. X-Plus has a big display and we have photos and updates! As always, you can preorder online in the CultTVman Hobbyshop. First, we have a look at the Metaluna Mutant prototype. culttvman.com/main/x-plus-...

Just a small group of aging modellers doing an occasional, shortish live stream, where we mainly just shoot-the-crap around and poke fun at each other ... youtube.com/live/5hltbq9...

Completed. Lost In Space “ Robot” 1998 movie version. Scale unknown. (BIG)

I don't think I've ever built a #scalemodel without one or two (or a few) "whoopsies" ... E.G. when you think a decal pattern is white on the sheet, but is actually clear and you were meant to paint white underneath. Whoopsies ... #scalemodeling #startrek #klingon #birdofprey

This weeks CultTVman Hobbyshop video! We bring you a preview of The Bride of Frankenstein! Plus X-Plus kits and a new Godzilla kit is coming youtu.be/0jxtaJgIbks?...

Onto the next project. 1/32 scale Galileo Shuttle with interior. Paragrafix photoetch, Aztek Dummy masks, Powered by Arduino nano #modelbuilding #modelmaking

I do not consider my views political, but UNIVERSAL & SIMPLE: - Equal Rights for All, in Equal Measure to All, applied Equally to All. - Treat people like people, not like objects or products. For those being targeted right now. I'm terribly sorry. Stay strong and take care of yourselves. #uspol

This survived the shed fire. Very X Files.

Never got any pRon bots yet. I have been using several #blocklists from the get-go; or, maybe I'm just not that interesting. Both? Maybe both? .... Probably both.

With all the freaking #snow to shovel out there ... it's a #slowcooker kind of day. Got a new #crockpot so I'm testing it out with some turkey burger red chili. Stay warm folks. #cooking

Christmas/New Years wasn't too bad, even through fighting a belligerent infection. But it's starting to feel like I'm finally on the right RXs now. So I need to get off my butt and figure out what to work on next. Maybe it's time to re-paint and fix #Catwoman #Batman #Scalemodel #ScaleModeling

#Tiramisu ... and #Brownies with melted Riesen candies in them. Done #baking #Christmas

Andes Mint Cookies. Messy but worth it. therecipecritic.com/wprm_print/a... #baking #christmas #cookies #mint

The #baking hasn't stopped ... My Grandmother's recipe: Oatmeal, Peanut Butter, Chocolate Chip, M&M. One more wave of cookies to go then it's a break until the 24th. #Christmas #cookie #cookies

#baking continues ... My own, award-winning chocolate chip cookies. Two dozen. I think next will be my Grandma's secret recipe. #Christmas #Cookies #ChocolateChip

#baking begins. First up, by DEMAND, is the Maple Fudge. #Christmas #Fudge #Maple

"... Our task. Transport down a man I've known for 15 years ... And if we're successful ... maroon him there." A 1/1000 U.S.S. Enterprise #ScaleModel kit from Round2/Polar Lights. Built up as the second pilot version. Now in a good home ... owned by an old friend of mine. #StarTrek #ScaleModeling

This was part of a "Be a Kid Again" #groupbuild. Build one of the first kits you remember. Mostly out-of-box. Exceptions for old/bad decals, etc. Mine was the 1:1600 Space Ship set with JT-Graphics decals. Mainly airbrushed with #Tamiya and #Vallejo paints. #startrek #scalemodel #scalemodeling

We're gearing up for the 2025 model shows and the first event we will be attending is the ModelCon show in Chattanooga on January 10-11. This is always a fun event with lots of great models on display and quite a few dealers to buy from. culttvman.com/main/culttvm...

I saw that Round2 models is re-boxing the 1/350 Enterprise Refit ... but is now in GREY plastic???? I don't know if this is a typo, but I'd prefer white for Raytheon lighting (shining light through the plastic to make the "impossible" spotlight effects of the studio model.) #scalemodel #StarTrek

I brew #coffee a few different ways: V60 Pour Over Aeropress (Hot & Iced) Moka Pot French Press Cold Brew Infuser Cezve My current preference is the Moka Pot or Aeropress (American strength), depending on how much punch I need ... But the French Press is still my tried and true. How about You?
