Aeresome work my friend. And you just gave me a tip, I never thought of spraying the Blue over Silver. I'll try it on my BT-13 that flew out of Shaw back in the 40s, whenever I get around to building it.

Gil, What an effort. This looks to be a great undertaking and it is looking fantastic. Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

And she's done, except for a squadron insignia decal that's being made for me by a friend and will be added later.

Not the easiest of vac/resin builds, but now I have a rare 1/48 bomber on my shelf! Questions, comments, and critiques welcome!

Oh man, I'm speechless. Time to quit; I cannot hold a candle to that!

 

I bow in the presence of greatness!

That's too kind Duke! Now get up and tackle that old 1/72 Williams Bros. kit! :smiley9:

That is one sweet bit of plastic, Gil! Outstanding work, pal. Making me want to crack open that Mercator again...

Congrats!

Great job, Gil! Love the colors all around. We have come a long way from sticks and paper to carbon graphite for the real things.

 

This is one of those planes that kind of spans between those two opposites. You nailed the transition with this build toward the future of aviation.

Mark Tutton of Starfighter decals generously made some 1rst Bomb Group emblems and a B-10 data block for me and they're on the model to make it "officially" done!

As usual, my friend, excellent.

You're a man after my own heart! Great job Gil! This is an aircraft from my favorite era.

All I can say is....wow! Another outstanding build, as usual from you. The B-10 certainly is an interesting-looking aircraft.
