Starfire Day3: Progress hampered by extensive filler time and somebody requesting backside numbers on his two Subbuteo squads. #histscalemodels

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.

Cheers Stef, the advantage is that Xtreme is like ModelAir, it's already mixed perfectly with thinner so with the fist thin coat you get the color and the second passing (wait 15 min) then creates the reflection surface. 🙂🤗

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.

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.

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.

Mare Power Day3: That's the best I do for the interior.
US based (but china producing) manufacturer Minicraft defaulted for a good reason, don't visit the URL, it was hijacked by an online casino. Figures....

Mare Power Day2: I painted up the bombs, although they'd better serve on an external cart.
Bow turret came without the holes for the twin 0.50 cal.

B-24J 'Hare Power' Day1, given the quality of these parts from now on called Mare Power.
Hard thick plastic with tons of flash, poor fitting and extremely basic details. Bomb bay closed it shall be.
