Nobi 1/100 b-52h
Hi everybody. I finally finished the awesome 1/100 B-52H designed by NOBI and wanted to share a couple of pictures.
This kit is definitely not for beginners and unfortunately I am a beginner, so I really struggled with the engine pods . . . it took my seven tries to get four half-way acceptable engine pods to attach. Even with that, the ones I finished are pretty rough around the edges, which explains why I don't have any close ups of them.
I now have it flying happily over my man-cave with my Gary Pilsworth B-52H.
Somewhere down the line I will probably want to give another shot to building some acceptable engine pods and if they turn out better, I'll go ahead and finish the rest of the plane. I would recommend that anybody starting this kit go ahead and plunge into the engines first and get them out of the way and then do the rest, because it will be a breeze after that.
P.S.: Would love to see some of the really talented builders on this site do a tutorial on building the engine pods.
Thanks for looking,
