B17G progress

[RAF_Loke]

Last one is pretty good, as you can see the rivets

[JMSmith]

so how is this one

[JMSmith]

or this,

shall i stop now

[Jarink]

That last picture is interesting.... Bolted-on plates to keep the gunner from shooting the wing and tail!

[RAF_Loke]

Agree with Jarink last one is interesting.
Wonder what the #4 means?

I plan to make a profile of Big Stoop too. Same G model.
See more here 42-31156

I did notice on pictures I have of Big Stoop myself, that the roundels used was of this type..



However I haven't been able to 100% say the same about BTO in the ETO. I have pictures of that one too, but they are more blurred.

[JMSmith]

if you look under the 4,

it say Elaine, so, " 4 Elaine"

Todays progress.

[RAF_Loke]

Need some advise and comments.

On the picture I have attached, I have added some red lines and rivets as I believe they should be like. Do you agree?

And made a circle around an area where I'm in completely doubt as what it should look like. Because I would say the line drawing is wrong.

Keep up the good work ! I think the shade on the rudder might be a bit too wide, looks like the vertial stabilizer is much thicker than the rudder.

forresten: Godt at se at der er andre Danskere herinde :-)

The correction you made on the riveting does make more sense indeed. As for the aileron, I think you should check with actual pictures. I'm not sure it would be that horizontal. Maybe something in between.

Cc. the circled area, I haven't a clue. :-(
