TomcatFanatic123 Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 (edited) Here's some in-progress shots of my RoG 1/144 BUFF. I've modified it to a gear up cofiguration, so I'm interested in getting opinions on that. I did it gear up for two reasons - 1. I f***ed up the gear struts , 2. I thought it would be interesting to try to do some in-flight shots with photoshop. Anyway, here's some overview shots.

TomcatFanatic123 Posted August 17, 2005 Author Share Posted August 17, 2005 (edited) Here's some shots of the gear doors I modified. I noticed in the pics that the doors needed a LOT more touch-up as far as putty goes. Edited August 17, 2005 by TomcatFanatic123 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GEH737 Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I had the same Idea when I built this KC-97. It makes a great ceiling refueler :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TomcatFanatic123 Posted September 29, 2005 Author Share Posted September 29, 2005 OK, now for the (almost) finished product. Windscreen is just dry-fit, and all it needs is to be prepped for decals and then decaled. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

David Walker Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 It's certainly looking good so far. Out of curiosity, how big is a 1/144 B-52 anyway? None of the shots really give me a sense of scale but it's got to be pretty big I would think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I will be taking some more pictures of it, and I'll be sure to include some shots to give you a size perspective ;). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
