I acutally put mine on the workbench, Then decided to wait, as I wanted to add the targeting pod to update it, but I can't find one.

I am going to be building this one out of the box for a local Hobby shop. I have seen all the BarracudaCast items, I am going to build my own parts because I've got 12 of them in my stash. I don't see the reasoning in buying 12 sets of detail parts when i know i can make one set myself, and cast them, and get much more satisfaction out of my build. It is the pleasurable for me to build than just assembling a kit. The HK Models B-17 Build is for a Friend.

Cheers All

Built this as a kid when it came out in the early 80's. Took a while to save up for it too. It was just too massive to brush paint like I did back then with my kits. So I made the white prototype version using a spray can. It looked quite impressive hanging from the ceiling dwarving even a 1/32 Tomcat. Good luck with the build. From what I remember is that I had trouble with the glue drying up before I could attach the parts because of their size. And it had some issues with seams. They didn't have Tamiya green back then. Have fun with the build!
17 August 2015, 10:24
Clifford Keesler
Ok Michael, that did it, I will start mine also. Why not 3 of us at one time, we can compare notes. LOL. Actually I have benn waiting for an excuse to build it.
17 August 2015, 13:19
Clifford Keesler
We cab have a mini group build. LOL.
17 August 2015, 13:26
Daniel Phelps
i'll second that idea!
18 August 2015, 05:38
Jan Hazes
Does that mean I have to purchase one too?
18 August 2015, 10:16
Augie
Lol i was already contemplating one...
18 August 2015, 11:44
Glenn
A good excuse to purchase an airbrush too while your at it Augie! 🙂
18 August 2015, 22:29
Augie
Lol Glen.. no offence.. but never will I move to the paint blower.
18 August 2015, 23:04
Clifford Keesler
You better have a big brush or a rattle can the Augie,if you will never go to the paint blower. LOL. Anyway join in the fun.LOL. This monster is Gunship grey right, please to me yes, as I have invested in copious amounts of it, and white.
19 August 2015, 20:39
Augie
Lol well i would do a sand one..... guess i'll be ordering one with a wessex or two
20 August 2015, 15:35

I got my cockpit started today,I did not realize how big the thing is. Do you believe it has 228 pieces?
20 August 2015, 22:04
Jeremy Wiltcher
I guess I could start mine too after I get the Baracuda detail sets.
20 August 2015, 23:41
Clifford Keesler
Go for it. Who are the Baracuda detail set available from?.
21 August 2015, 01:18
Kerry COX
It looks like a B-1B group build developing. 🙂
Have fun guys. 👍.
21 August 2015, 01:33
Clifford Keesler
I think we will sir. LOL.
21 August 2015, 02:02
Jan Hazes
I just ordered one 🙂 55 euro. 35 years ago it was the equivalent of around 30 euro. Now all I have to do is move house to a place I have room to build it.
21 August 2015, 06:27
Clifford Keesler
I know what you mean, I am wondering where I will put mine. I guess I will have to rearrange the man cave.
21 August 2015, 13:54
Wim van der Luijt
@Jan: I can take it off your hands for €30,- so you can save money because you wont have to move, how's that for a plan? 😄
21 August 2015, 13:59
Jan Hazes
Nah, I think I'll pass. I've already got a spot in mind to put it when its done. It's going to the office I'll be moving to in a few months. Kind of fitting for a military aviation authority don't you think?

Looking good so far, I am making slow progress on mine, Trying to finish my 1/32 Tornado and work on the bone at the same time. The Tornado is finished, except for final weathering, finally.

Looking really sweet, you're making me feel like digging mine back out. If you remember you inspired me to start mine, but I ended up packing her away. Anyway I now have the "Symphony of Destruction" decals by Caracal Models and a whole new diorama idea for her (and she'll be displayed in an in-flight position where she belongs). I'm hoping to start work on her again in about 6 months time.🙂
10 July 2016, 01:37
Daniel Phelps
I'm planning to have her finished by September 24th
10 July 2016, 02:13
Kerry COX
An other group build happening here guys. ??? 🙂
10 July 2016, 04:19
Jan Hazes
That would be the second time 🙂 Finished mine a few months ago. But kept it stock. No fancy flaps or resin parts.
10 July 2016, 08:02
Daniel Phelps
No aftermarket parts for me, just OOB.
10 July 2016, 16:16
Michael Hickey
I have the resin to bring her up to a modern version.
11 July 2016, 00:34
Kerry COX
How much resin is involved in the upgrades Mike. ?
11 July 2016, 01:34
Michael Hickey
Well you can get from Barracuda their Exhaust Nozzle set, either early or late set. Plus they do the Air Intake set, as well as an Exterior Upgrade set. I have the the Late Exhaust Nozzles set that doesn't have the turkey feathers on them and also the Exterior Upgrade set. They do the wheels as well but I can't remember if I got those or not.
11 July 2016, 05:58
Kerry COX
Do you prefer the 'turkey feather' type cans or just the plain 'scissor' type. ?. They both look good, but I would imagine fiddley to do if moulded but as individual parts. :-/
I have seen online the resin bits and they look well detailed, and being 1/48, it's going to look spectacular. haha. 🙂 Bring it on. 👍
