First of all I did not build this. I commissioned it to be built with my Uncle Jacks airplane markings...He was a side gunner...I have a small memorial to him in my collection. The gentleman that built this was a F4 Phantom pilot in Vietnam and had to eject..when he did he lost an arm. He builds great models with only one arm.. Amazing!!!!

A well-deserved tribute to your uncle.
A great merit and my recognition to the vietnam veteran.

Do you know what brand (or brands) do this B-17 with half visible?
Congratulations for the work accomplished and that memorial for your uncle.

Very nicely done model. SANCER, the only B-17 model produced as a :"Visible B-17" was the Revell/ Monogram kit in 1/48 scale. I have one in my stash from when the kit was first issued.
