Popular Post podciech Posted December 6, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 6, 2018 Hello everyone I will welcome you with the b-2 bomber model. A gluing, or rather a sculpturing, took me half a year. At the time when I stuck it, it was the only 1/72 scale model on the market. Tests are not impressive with quality, it is a model from the "gniot" series. The patches date 1991, convex lines, wyppaczane items, there are many shrinkage pits, you need to improve a lot and even more earn. I collected probably the majority of photos, videos and reports from the model building available on the Internet. Unfortunately, very few photos of B-2 details are still available today. For the construction I used Eduard's plaques and airesa armchairs, the only elements available on the market for this model, and still are not perfect. Cockpit, bomb chamber, chassis recesses, engines, leaning rudders and many other things done from scratch, engraved lines. I have not used so much putty in my life, even on Mach 2 models. Model painted mr. Color C (FS36118), H. The presentation of this copy (21066) took place on November 22, 1988 at the Palmdale Air Force Base, California. The first flight took place on July 17, 1989 from the Palmdale base to the Edwards base. greetings ,,,,, 97 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildeSau75 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Just wow - easily the best B-2 model ever seen. Its level of detail and its paintjob/weathering are second to none. Just great. Cheers, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldy Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Absolutely stunning result from a mediocre kit. Outstanding detail work and very convincing finish. Wow!!! Cheers Malcolm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitchen Modeller Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Quite incredible - really pushing the limitations of 1/72 to a new level. It was a long build but totally worth it - a beautiful model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomprobert Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Having built that kit myself, and knowing what a pig it is, what you've achieved is sensational! I know this is a terrible cliché, but that's 'proper modelling'. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Bombers aren't my cuppa, but I did have to retrieve my jaw from the floor when browsing all the detail photos! Amazing modelling. Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aro0 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatbox8 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 That is quite outstanding. The level of detail is, frankly, eye-watering, and in 1/72nd scale! I haven't built the kit but from what others are saying here about it only confirms the quality of your work. The overall paint scheme is beautifully applied with subtle variations in the main colour. Judging by the position of the toilet you wouldn't want to eat a dodgy curry the night before. I think you would feel a little self-conscious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
At Sea Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 That's astonishing! If that was 1/32 I'd be impressed but at 1/72 that is mind blowing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

podciech Posted December 7, 2018 Author Share Posted December 7, 2018 Thank you so much for so many answers. I am glad that you liked it. Actually, I could close the flap in the toilet. greetings 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorfinn Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Like the others, I am gobsmacked! Easily one of the most precisely-rendered and beautifully-detailed models of any type or era that I have seen. I salute your artistry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unfinished project Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 The best B-2 by far this is definitely a benchmark build for this Stealthy Beast. 👍👍👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
