Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Your filling the Constellation's windows is just perfect! :thumbsup:
[the word "realistic" hurts my heart...]

It looks like you stole some B-29 parts. Am I correct?
Great work!

Naaahhh, Boeing stole them from Lockheed........  ;) ;D :lol:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

The gun turrets are from a B-29 kit
The nose and rear gun position are from a B-17

Please can we have a look at the tail gun position?  Incorporating this has always seemed to me to be the most tricky bit of the conversion.

Great build ,I toyed with that idea but I could never get the rear gun position correct.

I just got too excited  ;D gret pics of the tail on your blog.  Beautiful work.
