It's been fantastic to see the #histscalemodels community come together working on a rather narrow theme.
Very well done you all and thank you again for making this happen 👏👏

Starfire Day2: Imprint on the port wing dates this kit back to 1993, making it an early kit of EMHAR. Scalemates say they went out of business in 2017.

Inspired by @richardjdeacon.bsky.social to try an EMHAR model kit and being quite taken by the AK xTreme Metal effect on the Liberator ( #HeaviesGB video is in the making process), this is next on the bench:

Here's the final sitrep for our #HeaviesGB:
We have a fantastic turnout of 17 builds completed, really amazing ideas turned into reality. Congrats to all of you, including those additional 20 aircraft which didn't get airborne the past 3 months.
Thank you all so much, video to come this month.

Formal photos of the completed model. Thanks to @jaaaagirr.bsky.social for leading the project, and all the other contributions to see - good luck to everyone else racing to the finish line of #HeaviesGB in #histscalemodels !
If there's interest I can share some build photos and saga, say the word!

Did you miss me? Current status. It was a silver monster, then a lumpy blue monster (masking tape) now a shiny black lumpy monster, but I'm surprisingly pleased to be here - nearing the end of the build and (fingers crossed) the end of #HeaviesGB in #histscalemodels, thanks, @jaaaagirr.bsky.social!

In continuation of the #HeaviesGB 1/72 KC-135A build, which I will able to finish only through divine intervention, which is nice, here's the process of restoring the rear fuselage re-enforcement ribs which were sacrificed earlier in order to remove the top fuselage seam line. #histscalemodels

Yibbida Yibbida, That's All Folks! (As Rex Hunt would say 😅) 1:72 Consolidated B-24H Liberator. Corky Pig ready to take to the skis(I mean skies! Don't believe him!) Some gaps, some wrong colours, some bung decals.....still, pretty happy with my 1st effort in 27 years. 🤣 #HeaviesGB #histscalemodels

Next up in #histbookchat in a kindle edition of the Defence and Fall of Singapore.
First chapter in this is very promising, as it sets the scene with the inherent flaw of setting up a far eastern naval base in the treaty period, with Japan being still an ally.

I'll stop with the old Hasegawa B-17G as I've reached the tipping point where anything else is likely to make it worse. Maybe a little too tan for my liking, but a fun kit to build. Wrong rear turret, likely didn't have the red flashes, but it looks decent to civilians 😜

Right, that is me done with the Airfix Shackleton. A very good kit, great decals and in the end a good looking plane. A few mistakes and a few things I will do differently next time but overall happy with how it's turned out.

Mare Power Day7: US interior green for the landing gear bays, bomb bay will stay shut to block the view on the shoddy fuselage interior.
I kept my option open, but it really looks crap inside.
