I'll be building a B-36 sometime in the new year, also with a resin turret insert. I was bullied cajoled into it by the CW SIG members. I took it out of the box a couple of days ago and taped the major components together. I'm going to need a very big transportation box and perhaps a bigger car :roll:

I've got a lot to choose from in the stash. Drawn to big US bombers particularly but I have got a Heller Ju52 in French AF markings for 1950s Indo China. This also got me thinking about why should this GB just be for aircraft? How about opening it up to other subjects?
