Title: 390BG B-17G 'Liberty Belle'
Post by: Serenity on June 07, 2008, 10:55:04 PM
This is my first all metal, and first B-17, so I'm still working things out. If Wikipedia is to be believed, she was part of a disasterous 8th AF flight, where her 1,000 lb was hit directly by flak shortly after leaving the fueselage, and the resulting explosion damaged 12 of the BUFFs.

Known issues: The metal doesnt match up on the bomb bay doors; panel lines and rivets need work; there is no weathering.

Maybe it's just be, but it looks like there are too many panel lines?  Perhaps lower the opacity.

Yeah. I hadn't even began tooling with the layer opacities yet.
