        Fantastic looking kit I've got nothing but respect for someone taking on a mammoth build like this.

          Nice one John. Apart from the flash around the clear parts it looks to be a nice mould.

                I have this and was tempted to give it a go for this GB but not sure I will finish in time. I also have some Eduard PE for it for the wing flaps but if I did it, not sure I would do that part anyway It is a nice kit, and I know it is not patriotic, but I think the B17 is a far better looking aircraft than the Lanc - o_O


                Any idea which scheme yet? [edit] doh, you said as shown. RTFM and all that!

                  Slowly plodding along with this. Really enjoying the masking of the clear parts[ATTACH]108433.IPB[/ATTACH]

                    Nice job so far John. A fair amount of glazing on the Flying Fortress, looks like you've done a good job on the masking.
