It was cut into four pieces a I managed to down one of those. (My girfriend and her seven year old were not so successful!) It was a 2 3/4 pound patty with about a quarter pound of 1/4" thick Neuske's bacon. (Jeff Bailey knows how good that is!)

Intercooler shutters for the #1 engine installed!

David, it'd be GREAT if we could get together! I've not yet met Josh in person, so your visit would be a great excuse for all of us to get together. Tom Bebout is only a couple hours away and Rick Wilkes is here in Indy as well. Do you have an estimated time-frame?

Wow! This model is amazing. Since it is fiberglass, I suppose it will require a few different techniques. Did you say you were building a new room on your house to display it?

Not really George. After all, parts is parts. The main difference is building the interior after the exterior. If you've ever done aftermarket part installations or conversions you could totally handle one of these. (And of the three big HPH kits I have the B-36 looked to be the easiest to build and the first I've attempted. It's been pretty easy so far.)

Hi Josh: You have a great build log started here. The last post was over a year ago, hopefully you have continued on with the B-36. I recently picked up a Monogram kit in the original boxing. I built it when it first came out in 1980 or so. I am looking forward to it. I am looking forward to seeing more of your build, hope it's not stalled.

Yeah, I've picked back up on it after the B-52 got here. It's just that there are a lot of holes to make! Fortunately #David Kopielski is coming to the rescue for some alternative markings so that's also spurring me on. I've also finally finished foiling the wings on my B-29 so the end is in sight for that build!

Yes, the B-52 is also 1/48. It is an even better kit than the B-36. I have a review of it on the site. If you've ever done resin and struggle with removing parts from pour blocks, HPH takes about 95% of that away. I liked your Scorpion builds. Made me get my C model out and get back to work on it. I cut the rocket stubs off of the wing, but am not happy with the result. Gonna swap clean wing bottoms from a D/J kit as it is being built as a "what if" and will be camouflaged so sanding the rest of the stub remnants off won't cause much of a burden. (Hint, it will have SEA camo and the job I'm setting it up for required a two man crew.)
