It's a real treat to see a B-36 in RAF camo and markings and with the guns opened up! That's some tremendous work and you topped it with that very cool stand! Love it!!!

I just had a thought occur to me.
Given that the B-36 big advantage was that it flew at such high altitudes, why are the guns mainly on the top side?

Dude that rocks!!!  :wub: It looks like it was naturally built to wear RAF roundels.

To right Brian - I think that's the first one I've seen with the guns opened up. I never knew thats what tehy did  :banghead:

Tuck's anti flash white one is similarly superb, must finish my glossy sea blue US Navy patrol B-36...

I've got the monogram one in the stash.

It will probably be one of those that never gets built. 1/144th is so much easier to handle. :wacko:

If I remember correctly, there are other guns on the underside, either fore or aft of the bomb bays.  The visible turrets only account for ten of the twenty it was rated for.

Looks good in those RAF colours.
