@gblair finally, I pry the bomb with tweezers and pasted a new one from the stock. I hope it will be ok. @luftwaffe-birdman I'm also considering supporting the plane under the tail, because it's safer. I'll see if there's an option to stuff the weight into the hull at all.

Looks great, my friend @lis! In the hull, possible locations to add weight are under the bombardier's floor and, maybe, behind the nose wheel housing. But you may be able to add weight to the engines, this might do.
Nice save on the bomb, Beranrd @lis
New bomb looks great, Bernard (@lis). You are more conscientious than I am. I think I would have slapped some paint on it and called it OK.
In the nose under deck Floor I put 55g of lead. It is probably under weight signed in manual, but I don’t want that lead to be to visible over deck floor. As YT modellers I will try tu put some lead in engine gondolas. Or if it is impossible under dorsal turret. Also I glued waist window doors.

Genius way to add lead, my friend @lis!
This way the total amount of lead should be sufficient, Bernard @lis
After midnight work fuselage was closed. Some putty in nose was required. Also in lower parts of fuselage. Serious sanding was between bomb bays. This seam fits quite bad. But finally looks OK. PS. Fuselage doors need extra plastic stripe to Hold doors on place.

Great job so far, my friend @lis!
Great work on the fuselage, Bernard @lis All the sanding was well worth the work.
Time for ball turret. Masks I need to cut out from Tamiya Tape.
Superb masking, my friend @lis!
After Mr Surfacer 1500. I replace barrels from by spare box.
Looking super, my friend @lis!
Looks very nice, Bernard @lis Those barrels do look perfect.
