Glenn Martin B-10 and family
« on: July 28, 2014, 08:12:12 PM »
This is for sure one of most important bomber in history and personally one of my favorite. I spent a lot of time searching data for this bomber and just hour ago I start analyze of available blueprints and I will start work on drawings. If I have luck, I will create whole sets of drawings of all versions. Very possibly that this will be published in magazine by the end of this year.

The B-10 and B-12 did much to "create" a real strategic bomber idea in the minds of American airmen, certainly a historic machine!

Most problem will be with the external reinforcement... But once I solve it, I will do all versions of this plane I know ;)

Hi,

Beautiful project. If I remember well, the B-10 did exist in 1/72 scale model by William Bros.

I hear it is closer to 1/75 and in 1/48 was Lone Star resin kit. It will be good project to release it as resin kit and I seriously consider that ;)

I never got this kit and can say nothing about accuracy of scale...
