My favorite military aircraft is the B-17. I love its dramatic lines, its history, and the close connection with the airplane. This is my first attempt to recreate it that didn't instantly collapse on the runway. This version is a good deal smaller than I think it should be. A few notes: I wanted to create the lower ball turret, but was limited to adapting nose cones to the purpose. Underneath, they are taller than the wheels, so I settled for changing that block to a glassy blue. This model also has a releasable fire bomb under "1". And yes, if you look closely, it does create a tiny little explosion. Make sure not to push 2 or you will jettison your engines.
