Dont like the P-38? Guards!

Fair enough though...coastal command have a good colour scheme so I can see why youd want to do it.

The white for the colour scheme is impossible to paint on exactly, ive resorted to spraying them
The picture is of my B17 E hanging from my ceiling

Just onea thing - could you shrink the pic down a little? It makes it much easier to see - and it's less hard on the guys on dial-up!

Nice model, though. I think the ol' Fort looks good in RAF colours.

The coastal command B-17E is made by academy if you wanted to buy one, the best place for rare models is eBay

Im completely slow and unorganised with my models. Heres what I have finished (all 1:72)

Junkers Ju-87B Stuka
Lockheed P-38F Lightning
Focke-Wulf Fw-190D-9
Savoia-Marchetti Sm.79 Sparviero

And heres what I have waiting to be done:

Fiat G.50 (part finished)
Messerschmitt Me-163 Komet
Hawker Hurricane (BBMF)
Supermarine Spitfire (BBMF)
Avro Lancaster (BBMF)
Yakovlev Yak-3
Boeing B-29 Superfortress.



Im hoping to get the Memphis Belle and a B-24 as well so I can the 3 American heavies all together, with a P-47D and a P-51D Mustang either side. That will look good 8)

Since you're going to Weston - you could go to Bristol to get one - there's a very good model shop in Fairfax St in Broadmead. If anyone's got one, they will have.
