Great photos, thanks for sharing. Lots of impressive work, and always a treat to see a 1/48 B-1B built up! Chris -

Got a copy a couple of weeks ago and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in any flavor of -135. I learned there are two editions; the 2017 version is much more comprehensive than the original. Chris -
Wow! Chris

Very nice! Chris

Looks great! Chris

Wow! Looking forward to your Bone & BUFF builds also. Chris

x2! Chris

Great idea, I’m in. Chris

I'm intrigued by the J57 engines on the left wing of the test shot buildup and what look like AGM-86 under the right wing... Chris

Looks great, the walkway stripes turned out sharp! I like the 2 AF marking on the fin, too. Chris

For the late aft fuselage halves, you’ll need to remove the antenna fairings from both sides of the fin, as well as the wedge-shaped fairings on the aft fuselage. Also, remove the upper & lower “tree” antennas, and omit the two triangular “spade” antennas on the lower fuselage. I think the structural reinforcing bands would need to go too. Chris

Very sharp! Chris

For what it’s worth, Magnesium Overcast (Jenkins, 2001), lists the UNITED STATES AIR FORCE lettering as 9” tall on the B-36. Chris

Yes, a great choice; the 428 FS (& 523 FS) seem underrepresented in both F-111s & Vipers- Thanks Chris
