Extras: Eduard 48286 etched detail set. Aires 4078 Resin and etched detail set. Possibly a heap of scratch building and a lot of patience.
This was my second entry into GB 17 where for the second time I had a little play with LED lighting and a dabble into fibre optics for the tail light. It was a fun build that was made all the more possible with the great help from you guy, your encouragement, kind comments and support spurred me on. A special thanks must go to Paul (Micdrow) and Terry (Airframes) for the invaluable links and reference pictures they found and posted or sent me.
Seriously fantastic!
Well done, Vic, the detail is just wonderful, I toyed with the idea of lighting up the interior of a B-17 many years ago. You have shown how to go about it!
