Enjoy 4 minutes of scale modelling highlights with all the finished entries of #TonyTonyTony.
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 👏👏

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.

Wartime entertainment was just some toothy bloke with a ukulele. Hold my beer! Excited to be presenting a topic close to my heart on @ww2tv.bsky.social in early December! #histbookchat

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.

Soviet SU-18 self propelled gun. It never went into production, top heavy, narrow gauge and only held 4 shells.

Prototype roll out day, 10th October 1930, the ever-present commisars are not happy.

Kit by HobbyBoss 1/35. Loved making this little one.

Finally finished my Dixie Clipper. It's my second 1/144 four-engine aircraft, and shows the seaplane as it appeared when it transported President Roosevelt to the Casablanca Conference 1943. It's my third and last entry in #HeaviesGB ! putteringinthestudy.com/2025/10/27/b... #histscalemodels

Soon I’ll be picking up where Fortress Rabaul leaves off with ‘Target: Rabaul - The Allied Siege of Japan’s Most Infamous Stronghold, March 1943-August 1945’ by Bruce Gamble. It is also my humble #photofriday #histbookchat offering this week.

Zwilling Day13: RLM65 still got its use, on the SC1000s.
All six of them.

Very nearly there with the Shackleton. About a week's work left to complete. 👍👍
