    Johns 1/72 Revell B-17-G Flying Fortress

    Well as the deadline fast approaches I've managed to get this finished.I was going to make a base for it but as time restraints won't allow for now a crusty paving slab will have to do.As this b17 was two planes stuck together as pointed out by Joe which went on to fly another 29 missions after it had been repaired. I tried to make it look like it had been around the block a few times. So folks here she is Little Mrs Mischief. Hope you like her as much as I do thanks for looking and any remarks and comments left many thanks John.[ATTACH]110485.IPB[/ATTACH]

                  Truly great job John. The variance of the NMF is perfect.
