(...) Feel free; I'll do the same. The turret on the nose is a ball turret, actually; it rotates and tilts. We can fudge some of that, but I want it to be as close as possible if I can. For example the wings and tails have moving flaps, the turrets (...) (23 years ago, 15-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.military)

I'm working on a rather ambitious project - a minifig-scale WWII/Korean War bomber (1 stud = 1 foot). It is the Navy's PB4Y-2 "Privateer", which is derived from the B-24.
