Just used what's in the box for the cockpit, no dressing up other than providing the side pieces for the seats. Why the kit doesn't I just don't know. Not a lot will be seen but it's a decent impression nonetheless, nice not to worry about going to town on it. #MonogramB52

Under way with the big B-52D. As requested by the customer, will be pretty much an "out of the box" build, including the Monogram movable bomb bay doors. But have added a magnetic latch system to make sure they stay shut when required. #MonogramB52

Next up! Doesn't seem very long since the last one of these big brutes hit my workbench, although last time I turned it into an NB-52. This time we are sticking with the "D" version in the Vietnam theatre and in line (although not quite) with the kit scheme... #MonogramB52
