Reveal - Hong Kong Models 1/32 B-17G Flying Fortress

www.bowemodels.com

OK, finally here it is. Quite simply the most awesome plastic kit money can buy (until the 1/32 Lancaster comes out this year, I suspect). It is not without problems (and it is very expensive), but the sheer size and quality of detail in this thing beggars belief. I added a ton of Eduard etch and Brassin goodies for the ultimate model. Decals are from Zotz and Kitsworld, because the ones supplied in the kit are a waste of time.

      Greetings, may I ask how you achieved the outstanding bare metal finish? Which products did you use and overcoat? Simply one of the most incredible bare metal finishes I have ever seen on a scale model.

    Steve - Do you make kits for others as a complete product? I am not a model maker, but my brother loves B-17s. I would love one of these for his 50th birthday - can you build one for me?
