Some nice detailing here! Performance is like that of a fighter though - I’d be inclined to shrink the control surfaces (as they’re hidden anyway) to give the lumbering bomber feel. Nice work though!
Nice build, the first thing I thought was seaplane! That would also work around the tiddly LG. Chuck some Sunderland style floats on the wings and bingo! Good work though!
I think if I remember rightly I liked the fuselage shape and just scaled it up rather painfully until it was full scale. About the Brabazon, that was supposed to be an unlisted post as you could probably tell - I actually need to post another build before I start the brab, but I got carried away! Thanks for pointing it out to me! @asteroidbook345
Yeah would love to build a viscount, it’s been on my radar for a while but I don’t really have the time anymore, what would you need help with? @MaxB17
Ah.....WoT. The tier system was really starting to bug me with that game. I.e. rock up for a scrap in a tier 4 tank and fight a team mostly consisting of tier 6 heavies!?! Naturally I lasted a second and couldn’t even dent armour at its weakest. @BMilan
I agree that you disagree with that! The buffalo was a lot worse! @Noname918181
+1Ha ha @drgunblood no worries bud, thank you!
Yup, confused many Jerry pilots when said turret shredded their 110/109! @THEAIRCRAFTCRAFTER
Thank you @Bife v kind of you!
+1Plenty of B17s on this site, why not ask someone whose already done one? I’m a bit hesitant about requests - I don’t build often. @Nickr
Thanks buddy! @TheFantasticTyphoon
Cheers! Appreciated! @lastv801
Thanks! I saw a decent one at the start of the year in nightfighter black - I thought I’d make one with standard camo. @BlackhattAircraft
Thanks buddy, you're far too kind but thank you! @Trainzo
This is very, very good for beginner!
Nice subject material once again mon amie!

+1Bloody marvellous, handles really well - you can park it anywhere!
+2Sexual healing.
Looks amazing, must take her for a spin when I can!
+1Building one myself at the moment, glad to see more of these!
+1It just dropped into jet stream so assumed it was just built, I see the original now. @Shippy456

Bugger.....
I made one of these years ago, not enough of these on this site I think, good stuff!
Never done a hollow fuselage or cockpit, I tend to avoid them as it’s quite fiddly with an iPad @MaxB17

This really looks magnificent cutting around the sky!
Very cool!
Very nice, effortless flight characteristics!
No worries, really unique, makes me want to watch that scene again! @Tarquez
+1I remember seeing Dutch boats in den Helder with the same fin configuration and always wondered what the benefit was. Good stuff once more!
Rule Britannia!
+1I’m behind the times! @BMilan

+1Did anyone else think of McCalls ‘Convoy’ song when they saw this.....! Lovely job!
B.e.a.utiful!!
+2Sorry, I’m more or less winding down with this and don’t have / never did have time to build requests. Why don’t you build one? @MarinoYeet
No worries, it’s a rather novel build! @Avro683Lancaster
“And they shall tremble again at the sounds of our silence.....” @toxicgamer88
+1Awesome! AA capability version next?
It flies. It dies!
Fastest Indian, what a movie!
What is this sorcery!?
+1Pretty damn neat, love the camo job. Tailplane and fin are a little blocky spoiling things a bit, nice build though!
Most vexing. Try mirroring and then mirroring the opposite way. Bit of a pain if you have lettering and working flaps etc.
Loved tintin as a kid!
That’s a large gun. Muzzle clearance is going to be a bitch. Great looking build!
+2Funny world, working on a BP myself..... a “daffy” in fact. Lovely looking stuff here!
Supposed to be one of the quietist boats back in the day, great build!
+1Awesome job! The cockpit detail must have taken you ages!
Thanks old sport, luckily I found a PR type that had the simpler two tone roundels! @GhostHTX
Thanks for your input! @jamesPLANESii
Or upvote something your impressed with? :) @Caden313
You are quite right @wonkapilot in fact all bomber variants, i.e. with a glass nose rather than PR types, had pointed front windscreens.
