Looks like the ugly brother of the Ho 229. 
Northrop integrated the engines completely into the wings. As a result the wing roots are quite thick. I wonder how that affected the air flow and the flight characteristics.

Looks good sir! I hope you plan to do the whole family of Northrop flying wings in 1/72.
