What kit is this, it doesn't say in the text? (Make and boxing would be nice.)

Hi there

Nice work Larry!

It'd be good add the manufacturer etc. into the article's text, because I must admit it had me guessing.

All the best

Thanks for the kind comments. This is the revell 1/72 B17G.

These revell kits are pretty detailed, but really fiddly.
