Gator52 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Subject is the final B-52G retired from the USAF May 3, 1994. I used the fuselage halves from the Revell B-52H boxing to depict this non-ALCM B-52G; only other additions were the UHF antenna on the upper forward fuselage, and wing-pylon adapters cut from .01" styrene. Unit markings were printed for me by Speedway Decals, and the stencils/details are from the Caracal B-52H set. Many thanks to Ryan (@BN7149) for his assistance with reference photos!

Dutch Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Chris, VERY NICE! It turned out way better than my own B-52G from the 34th BS at Castle (but assigned to Mountain Home 366th Wing). I like it! I need to build some more Revell B-52G/Hs to make room for the new Academy & GWH kits. I sure wish Kursad would hurry and print his 1/144 new B-52 sheets.
