I'm calling it finished.... it's an Academy B-29 painted as a Tu-4 Bull with a Modelsvit Tu-91 Boot attached as an engine testbed - it really did exist - as shown in this photo.... A lot of hacking, filling and sanding later...... Because I used Milliput to form the rear end of the cut-down Tu-91 fuselage, it is very tail heavy - so I had to fit a support prop under the Tu-4 tail. I reckon if they removed the turboprop engine and put a few seats in the Tu-91, they could have made a neat passenger version of the Tu-4 My attempt at repicating the photos of the real thing...... Comments welcome - more photos of the build are here I'm going for a lie down in a dark room now..... Ken
