Complicated organic shapes like the B1 fuselage usually require multiple blocks in the same place. THIS IMAGE shows the cross-section of the fuselage from nose to tail. Towards the nose, a simple train of curved or circular blocks do the job. But as the fuselage widens into the wing gloves (the flared out parts that house the swing-wing machinerey) two lengths of blocks are needed to get the right shape: one for the vertical part in the middle, and a flatter, wider block shape for the flared wing gloves.
This is a pretty challenging aircraft to build. There's a reason why so few people try even though it is such a famous plane. Don't be discouraged if it gives you trouble.
@F104Deathtrap Dude I finally finished the MiG-25, you can check it out if you want.https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/3yR5oq/MiG-25-Foxbat
@Yourcrush what does that mean?
@F104Deathtrap im going to make the foxbat now because it's a bit more simple lol
@F104Deathtrap oh my
@Northsoutheastthrop That's ok. When I started out, my planes looked like THIS lol
It took me a long time to get better. I mostly just took apart other people's stuff to learn how to make things.
@F104Deathtrap your planes are waaaay above my skill level lol
@F104Deathtrap yes!!!
@Northsoutheastthrop I've got the B-1's older brother, the Tu-22M Backfire on my profile if you're looking for a supersonic bomber ready to fly.
@Yourcrush Theres a bug with hollow blocks that let's you make concave shapes, sort of. If you google it, you'll see the forum post about it.
@F104Deathtrap I'll consider it
@Northsoutheastthrop Convair B-58 Hustler, Dassault Mirage IV, Avro Vulcan
@F104Deathtrap do you know any planes that is kinda like the b-1 but doesn't have a swing wing?
@F104Deathtrap bruh been trying for a month

No problem son @Northsoutheastthrop
@Dad Thanks dad
Look at it and copy it
