marauderdriver Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 (edited) I haven't posted on this side of LSP and haven't posted much to LSP because of "The Bucket" I picked up the 17, Lancaster and HE-177 form MENG KIDS when they first were released, I like these type of kits (EGGPLANES< TIGGER) and artwork..Hank Caruso being a favorite. I put the HE-177 together at a club build day and was surprised how it was engineered and fit. When we decided to do "Warped Caricatures" for our annual group build, the 17 was on my table. I had purchased a 144 scale Minicraft B-17G a couple of years back, and when I saw the two together "LIGHT-BULB"....So I'll let y'all figure out what I'm doing and no I'm not "Correcting" anything. Now to see how imgur works out .........NOT AT ALL....b Back with "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community" Will try another idea...be back with the answer. A little finagling on Imgur and got these on here......so Maybe..fingers crossed Edited December 10, 2016 by marauderdriver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marauderdriver Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 (edited) Well that may be as close as I get to sizing the pics.I tried the small thumbnail and it looks like a postage stamp. Fortunalty this isn't a big model so it works. This kit falls together and with patience you can take it apart,which was handy in putting somethings together. You will get the hint of the change the "LIGHT-BULB" represents in these shots Edited November 30, 2016 by marauderdriver Zero77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
