Here is a very interesting new release by MPM: a 1/18 scale B-17 F nose. I think those who like detailed cockpit will love this one.
#HPH 004  1/18 B-17F Nose

Exclusive assembly kit in very limited number!

The nose section of the famous WWII aircraft - the B-17F Flying Fortress. For our kit we chose one of the famoust B-17s, the Memphis Belle.
The nose section of this Flying Fortress consists of many parts. The basic part is a laminated shell, the rest of the parts are cast from resin. The kit contains also photo-etched parts, decals and plywood parts carved by laser.

Photos of kitīs contents and of built model will say more …

Now that is interesting, i like that. A rather good idea to bring out just the cockpit section, saves on a lot of space and still get a great center piece. Thanks Jean-Luc for the heads up. Andy

This is very cool looking. It looks very involved and quite complex but a really nice project.
