I read the article in gsm 2001 on Sheperd Paine.In it he describes how he had some really short deadlines for some and long waits for others.In the article,it lists the B-29 dio as one of his.I do admit that this one doesn't have his usuall flash but I refer you to his C-47 dio.It doesn't have as much flash as say,the B-24 dio but it is still his.As far as Sheperds little details,If you look close,you'll notice that he has turned the front wheels of the B-29 and there is a guy working in the bomb bay with a light.I think that Sheperds signature is on this one,it's just not in bold letters.Either way,it's a great dio.I'm just going by what I've read and my opinion.In any case,Kudos to the builder and all hail the god of dioramas,Sheperd Paine.
