My latest project What if. The kit is from Italeri, it gave me a lot of work to build it dohromady.Barvy are Tamiya and Gunze. Missing just get Australian decals.

Nice! The last pic, without the tan, looks good, too?

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Interesting look with the Qantas Flying Skippy on the tail. <_<

Looking forward to this  :thumbsup:

When I read Kangaroo my mind instantly though of a B-58  ;D
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Did you change the engines? It's got the earlier small-fan B-52G engines.

It looks terrific in that scheme and as Fred said, it's BIG!  :o :thumbsup: :bow:
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! :)

I saw the pictures.  They were interesting.  It seems the images have disappeared from the server where they were stored.

Yes, they are the engines of the B-52G. Pictures I have uploaded to the server again, so they are visible again.

That explains why I could not see them yesterday but can now. Interesting build, could have upgraded the engines to a socking great modern Airliner engine such as in several proposals to the USAF.

Camouflage is done, only in a few places will need to tune.
