OK how can I put in 10 hearts, Robin?

What Greg said – and just to add that I was temporarily confused by your text, wondering how these pre-break-up 1945 photos of the real thing had been retouched/digitised so well. :trophy: :trophy: :trophy:

Beautiful, and I love the forced perspective in the photos. You told us what ad-ons you used, what was the base kit?

Wow! What an impressive build of a B-17. Those interior nose details are so realistic looking along with those exhaust stains by the engines. Just a beautiful project.

It is the HK kit. Thanks for the comment.
