Border Models has announced a B-17G coming in 1/35 scale sometime in 2024. This thing is going to be huge. If my math is correct, it will have a 35.5" wingspan (103’ 9" in 1:1).

Smaller than my 1/32.

Yup, 1/32 = 39" wingspan. Both are huge in my book.
I did the Italeri 1/72 B-52G at a 30" wingspan and their 1/48 AC-130 at a 33" wingspan and those were really big.

Will need to put down more paint, maybe use some retarder to help with getting the coat to settle down.

I just bought the HK Models B-17G in 1/48 and now this comes up.
I think I will be selling the 1/48 one on to help pay for this bad boy.
I wonder if they’ll do their Lancaster in 1/35 as well?

Times are getting desperate for the Luftwaffe… gotta have something for Border’s 1/35 scale Messerschmitt Bf 109 and Focke-Wulf Fw 190s to shoot outa’ the sky!

“Oh good grief. Now where the heck am I supposed to put that?”
Was that a rhetorical question ??? 
But seriously…I would never have a where to display or store it … Wingspan is massive

Dust is a huge problem in my current house. Everything that matters needs to be in a display case or sealed container. Space in the display room is also limited. I already have a lot of 1/33 scale aircraft. If I do build a 1/35 scale B-17, it will go straight into a storage box.
