Republic Ford JB-2 Loon, 1/72, MAC Distribution

Post by Bolleken »

Started this one a decade ago, almost, it is my first finish 2022: a Republic Ford JB-2 Loon by MAC Distribution in 1/72 scale. Decals were broken, designed new and printed at home. This one is supposed to be the main object in a diorama. Hope you like it.

Beautiful little build! Now I’m quite curious as to the diorama it will be part of :hmm:

That will be a surprise. And fictional, as a JB-1 prototype is planned for it too.

I’m picturing a B-29 or B-50 mothership… :hmm: But I’ll wait for the surprise. :bored:

That is a sharp. looking machine!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
