FGMM B-17 Olive Man O War

I've been building some Fiddler's Green models lately, so I guess I'll jump in here for the fun of it. I plan to re-scale to 1/72 and glaze the windows. No other modifications, so I guess that qualifies as Improved Stock. Let me know if I'm mistaken. Looking forward to this, but I probably won't start build for about two weeks. I need to finish the B-29 and then I have an out of town trip planned for next week.

I'm looking forward to seeing this one come together. The clear glazing IMHO is a must on these models, even with no interior detail. Great choice!

One of my favs. Always wanted to build it - never did. I'm sure you'll do a great job.

should be a great one! The nose section could be fun. You should glaze the ball turret too :D

I was thinking the same thing. I'll see how it goes. I already began printing it. I'm using Kinko's glossy card stock, but using my ink jet printer. It's looking good.

I've heard about the Kinkos cardstock before. Does it require the use of CA glue, or does regular Aleene's work on it?

I'm sure this will be well worth the wait.
I have a couple of projects to finish prior to beginning, too.
Most are on the "Honey Do" list. :(
