Exact same thing as me Ken ....same model ..same scale ..same space issues  :banghead:

I could put next to the 1/48 Monogram B-17!

Yeah same here ..along with my 3 Monogram B-24 Liberators and Tamiya Lancaster...and yep there's a B-17 in there 😀 😄
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

I'll have to try that hanging on the wall trick.

If I had any wall space left Ken I'd be into that in a second 😆

The trouble with hanging anything on walls is that it takes away space better used for bookshelves, model shelves/cabinets, tvs...

There's a couple of suitable sized spots in the living room and bedroom but my wife may disagree!

Very nice! :thumbsup:
It's impressively large in 1/48. Not a scale I like but, I was gifted a G W H P-61 and, have similar plans for it. A bit different from this one. It's got to have tip tanks!  ;D . I think they do add something to the character of the model. I'm going to fit the four 0.50 machine guns in the nose and retain the 4 x 20mm cannons . That's more than enough to ruin anybody's day. It'll be a two seater with the rear cockpit painted over and, the space occupied by a ( hypothetical obviously) extra fuel tank. Also, less glazing = easier paint job!
