Interesting, besides the price being way more then I'm willing to pay for a model, where does one display builds of this size? Joel

too late and too expensive, I am building the sanger vac form B-52 in 1/48 scale at the moment.

Nice, but imagine the expansion I would need for my workbench and spray booth to complete this, then where to display it.

Richard, I don't even have room for the 1/144 scale B-52 on my display shelves. The largest models to date I've got displayed are the 1/48 scale P-61A & the 1/48 scale B-25B. I'm looking at 4 engine bombers but in 1/72 scale. Joel

Hey-- look at that B-36 in the background! VR, Russ

Russ I saw it. Just can't imagine how main stream modelers have the room for these monsters and the cash to purchase them. And as Kevin said, you'd need a major expansion to both your modeling bench and your paint booth. My wife surely would kill me even if I brought the topic up. and I'm the one who wants to sell our house and move down south to a condo. Joel

VR, Russ [/quote] Russ, I've still got some friends including my Brother on LSP, so I do stop by every once in a while. And you can count on 1 hand and a few fingers how many PBYs that's been attempted to be built. I know of 2. One was never finished, and the current one is a cut-a-way with the wings removed so it will fit in his display case. Price and size even for those guys is a major issue. Joel
