Tom Becking
Taylors, South Carolina
Talk about a Flying Fortress! Tom built Revell's 1/72 scale B-17G with the gear up, bay doors open, and props spinning for an in-flight pose against a beautiful Carolina sky. He added kit and aftermarket decals, antennas, and identification lights, and painted with Alclad II lacquers and Apple Barrel acrylics. Tom’s daughter Ashley lent a helping hand by shooting the photo while her dad suspended the model on 4-pound fishing line.
