Well Daniel, I'm in the food and beverage business and we like to say that nothing is expensive if you pass along the cost in a proportionate manner : )

I was looking at a B-17 in my stash and wondering about this build the other day..........and that April 26th deadline

Daniel Phelps
All of my other contracts with the guy were cancelled, so now this B-17G is my kit.

Daniel Phelps
I am still working on this model. maybe have it done for the 2015 Nats in Columbus.

Bill Spargo
Looking good Daniel, the kit goes together pretty well, I built one back in 1986 and enjoyed the build, not with the detailing parts youve got planned. Cant wait to see it finished ,it will look great with all the etching etc. That reminds me I'll have to build another.

Scott Schneider
The IPMS National are in Columbus, Ohio in 2015?

Daniel Phelps
