1/48 Classic Airframe B-57B

Although CA produced a good model of the B-57, I decided to spice it up a little. I cut out and dropped the flaps and detailed them using Evergreen plastic. I opened up a couple access panels on the right side for liquid oxygen servicing as seen in reference photos. I then added a couple pilot helmets that were detached from 1/48 scale figures.

This is a kit that went together well and like previous Canberra kits will require a lot of weight to keep it sitting in the proper position. Might be nice to see some after-market resin and a big wing version of it!
