B-17/ KC-135 hybrid

At second glance, I decided that the props weren't big enough. So rather than go to the trouble of doing it myself again, I ordered some in the mail. The first one was delivered today.

Eddie,

I may be wrong (and often am), but I think you may need to look at adding some weight in the tail once you attach those props.

Regards,

Greg

ya had me goin there for a second! I'm going to agree with Greg, some sort of counterweight is going to be necessary.

Yeah, let's see one of your cats try to mess with THIS model when it's done!

Thanks Philip B) that's what I need, a bit of a kick start. I got the 20mm Galting gun, cowlings and cockpit on tonight. The props are on for a dry run to seehow they look. It's finally starting to look like an airplane.

Man Eddie this one just keeps getting better and better! That gat is one of the most fearsome tail guns I've ever seen! I really like your work on the wing roots. This looks so right it makes you wonder why they never built it in the real world! Absolutely fantastic, Eddie! I can't wait to see her all painted up!

In the immortal words of the guy in the new VW commercials, you just dropped it like it's hot!  That is amazing Eddie!

Great stuff, Eddie! You continue to set the standard...

One of my favorite little joys on this board is checking out the "last read post" in any given model-in-progress thread...

Reading a series of comments written in sheer awe and genuine admiration...

Then back-tracking to the latest uploaded photo to see for myself what all the excitement was about.

And, if it's an "Eddie" thread, I'm never disappointed.

Those 'in-flight' shots are inspiring, Eddie!

Thank you everyone. B)  I am humbled.
