B-29 Enola Gay

Posted by Shipwreck on Thursday, April 3, 2014 8:18 AM

My next project is to convert The Revell 85-5711 B-29 into an Silver plate Enola Gay. I spent several hours today creating the 82, Enola Gay, circle R, and miscellaneous decals. However I do not know if I have all of the right stencils. If anyone has an old instruction sheet in their stash/file, would you mind emailing me (email address is on profile) the decal intstruction sheet that relates to the Enola Gay. By old kit it is probably kit # 5700, which includes the decals for the Enola Gay.

1:48?!? Did you build a table for it too? lol. My fiancé would die. ...or kill me! To be honest, I have to admit to having given it some thought once or twice, but I think it's a year or two down the road for me as of this moment.

I'll be keeping my eyes open for ya. =]

This 1/48 B-29 is one large model-lots of paint. My plan is to do it gear-up in flight and hang it from the ceiling. I have been doing a lot of research into it, but decided to do a P-51B Hun Hunter first. I have finished a D and 43-12102, the B that was hacked to a D. Hun Hunter will complete the Merilin engine trio, all in flight!
