Boeing B-17F Memphis Belle

You've just got to love the principle of scaling up a highly successful smaller model into a bigger scale, as Revell did with the F-89, the 'Belle here, and probably some others. I can find troublesome challenges easily enough in the hobby, but there weren't any in the 1/48 'Belle. I've built it twice, both for other people. (My resident Fortress is a Monogram G converted to a PB1W.) For its size, this is a fast and easy project, and the results were delightful both times. You can approach this project with serene confidence, and allow for the fact that some people will always complain about nothing.

Great model of a great airplane. The details of this model are remarkable. Except for some of the clear pieces, very little trimming is needed. This is by far one of the best airplane models I have assembled.

problems with this kit. Fit issues. Broken pieces. my fault ? Not satisfied wit this build.
