What an amazing choice and amazing start, my friend @lis

I wound up with the old Hasegawa reissue of their 1970 something B-17F with Aero Master "My Devotion" decals. I bought a bunch of aftermarket goodies to dress her up and joined up with Hyperscale's 1/72 group build page for a B-17 group build there. I'm nearly done and figured I'd post my progress here. I have a few of the Academy F model kits (I know to shim up the wings for the dihedral issue) and probably should have used the Aero Master decals on it instead, since "My Devotion" had modifications later B-17Fs that Boeing added to them on the production line and I had the graft onto the Hasegawa kit. The aftermarket stuff was made to fit onto newer kits, making the tough to fit on the old Hasegawa one. I had bought a newer white glue type canopy glue and tried it out, it shrunk horribly but I'm determined to finish her up anyway.

For it's worth, here's "My Devotion:"

Thanks, Spiros...

@davekight Very good work! You are welcome!

Looks to be a great kit, my friend @johnb! And you 've got nice extras, too! Looking forward to it!

@fiveten, @lis, thanks, I'm eager to start with it.

In the mean time, after some searching on the net, the Fortress at Duxford is the "Sally B" and seem to have been used as one of the B17's in the Memphis Belle movie. Even in one scene it was used to replicate the original Memphis Belle. This is the reason that on one side the nose art still shows the Memphis Belle.

Very nice start with this crew, Bernard @lis
Great figure painting skills.

Since my idea was to build the "Sally B", I started a search on the internet to get the correct decals for it.
Can find them but including the shipping they are around $20, which is a bit too much. Did have a search during my visit at the World Model Expo but could only find them in 1/144.
I would like to ask if someone might have these "Sally B" decals as a left over and would like to sell them to me. Just sent me a PM. Thanks.
