ANOTHER B 17!!!!

[jakeblues]

Yes friends, Cooney and Son are building yet another B 17. This will be a late model B 17 F...old nose windows but with chin guns. A Revell 1/48 B 17 F...fuse...wings...tail...top turret...and nose windows. Monogram B 17 G ...nose,sans cheek guns. We will be using the Monogram landing gear and weighted wheels...interior...engines...and guns.
This is where we are now more pics to come.

I've always been impressed by the builders that can mash kits, Very cool!

Second that! Great work so far!

Seems a bit of a complex way to do it, but great all the same!

Great building chaps, nothing like a challenge.

Great work but it Seems like you're reinventing the wheel.

I have always wanted the first gen chin armed 17...with the old F windows...and I had a several kits in several stages of parts and missing parts so I thought what the heck I have the putty and the knife , so the next is the Koster B 17 C,E conversions.

The B-17 Revell 1/72 and 1/48 it's the best kit done about this famous plane, I have the same but 1/72 scale, there are a lot of details to do mate...
