Good one Terry! That's the one I was going to do until I got smart for size.

Yep, that wing span sure is long in 1/48th scale! Not sure yet whether it'll be a 8th USAAF or RAF, possibly Coastal Command, or maybe 100 Group RCM bird. But there's no rush, as I'll have to figure out where it can sit when it's eventually built!

It'll take a whole lot of lead to keep the nose down Terry. I stuffed every available space with 1/8" sheet lead to make my "D" pass the balance test.

Yep, just been looking at the kit parts, trying to figure out where half a pound of lead can go, without being seen, or interfering with any added internal detail!!
I think I might be calling on you too Glenn, if I need any internal detail shots of visible areas in the nose and bomb bay !

I thought about doing that too but I was too late, I've already got a DC-3, B-24D and J, a B-29, a Cat and an AC-130 in the stash.
