- In this video I restore an old Revell B-52 kit. I bought it part assembled and damaged on e-bay and started work on it before it was returned to the attic for a while. I felt it was time to get working on it. This was an aircraft I fell in love with as a kid seeing the real one at IWM Duxford. This video features a walk around of that very aircraft.
Nice Buff! I have one of these in my stash, a gift from a dear friend that's languished, partially completed for decades. I think it's time to break it out for completion!
@@ahdaunti absolutely! Well, as you can see from this one. It had 2 false starts in life before I finally finished it! 😁
I have built 3 of these in all paint configurations. Also the B-52 is large, but the B-36 dwarfs it.
WOW! I bet they look awesome! I'd LOVE to build the B-36. They're really hard to get hold of. Maybe one day someone will re-tool it.
real Buff looks like it is wrapped in a black plastic bag ?? use LEGO to prop up wings etc for accuracy .( don't tell the kids !) thickness of that plastic must be almost 1/4" in places , so not much chance of bending it to fit if it doesn't want to ! colours look great , and she has that gorgeous tall tailfin ! Great job >well worth doing . best wishes from Wales .
@@fredtedstedman Haha, I know what you mean about the real one. My late father was a sheet metal worker and he used to laugh at the warp on it. Good advice on the lego too 😄
Resto mod?😳
