Question:
Is this the first entry for the 2010 WHiffies?
If not, it should be.

It's been nominated  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

If it has been seconded by Alvis, Radish, or any of our older "demented ones" then it is final.

Interesting scale comparison with those coins.
*thinks* Revell-Monogram has a B-29 in 1/48 scale..  :wacko:
Very nice and well executed concept!

Many thanks guys! Forgot to mention if anyone wants to try something similar use a mitre box and accurate measurements before cutting anything. I used the old mark one eyeball and there is a twist in the fuselage as a result. It doesnt really notice in the pics but I know it's there!
Since this one turned out well the 1/72nd version (using B-50's) is on the back burner for a while.

What a wonderful finish! The shape of the fuselage is what really sets it off for me. It's the best canard styled aircraft I've seen. Bravo Zulu!!
Look behind you!
