Truly spectacular. Wonderful work!

Simon Nagorsnik
Oh yes, wonderful!!

Marius
Such a beautiful scene! It really feels like it's moving, it's very dynamic.Superb!

Brian Autor
Thank you all!

Hajo Lippke
Very nice! Although - the propellers would look better if they´d been in "neutral" position... Sorry to point that out.

Michael Kohl
To display planes in flight is always a challenge. You came up with a very good idea and built a very nice model and diorama around it. Hajo points out a detail you might consider changing. It would add even more realism. In any case: a very special display. I like it a lot.

Spanjaard
It is simple spectacular. What a fantastic idea and execution. Congratulations, you certainly nailed it

Brian Autor
It's always good to receive feedbacks! Thank you Hajo.
I don't get what you meant by "neutral" position though. Do you mean making the burning propellers to move (but in a slower motion than the working ones) would have been better?

Brian Autor
Thank you Michael for your kind words.

Brian Autor
Thank you Spanjaard!

Rui S
Great work and presentation 👍

Michael Kohl
When propeller planes have an engine failure the blades are "feathered", meaning put in a position where they create the least drag.
Here en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propeller_(aeronautics) it is explained in detail.

Brian Autor
Thank you Rui!

Brian Autor
Wow I had no idea about this "feathering" propeller. I will definitely try this when I make another similar project. Thank you so much for your kind explanation!

Villiers de Vos
Very creative, and a beautiful presentation.

Greg Baker
Lovely lovely work!

Robert
great Idea putting the model over the clouds, well done...

Brian Autor
Thank you Villiers, Greg, and Robert! Really appreciate the encouragement.

Hajo Lippke
@Michael: Thank you for explaining it, I forgot the right term. And I really look forward to another project like this, Bryant! The display is awesome!!

Neuling
Very interesting project with the flak clouds. Well done! 👍

Andreas
Great work and nice display!
I guess you used LEDs for the flames, the props that's spinning - are those electrified?

Jan Peters
Beautiful, original idea, love it!

Brian Autor
Thank you all again!

Donald Dickson II
That is wicked cool! Well done!

Brian Autor
Thank you Andreas. Yes, I installed 4 LEDs for the flames and actually three of the propellers were motorized. One if the axles were broken during the assembly. I had to do a LOT of work by wiring and pulling them out through the aircraft. Hard but fun work!

Erik Torp
Usually I find cotton clouds not very realistic, but this one is superb! Great work.

Brian Autor
Thank you Erik. The tip is to make a lot of small bits of cotton rather than big chunks. A bit time consuming but really worth it.

Dean Harpster
What a great diorama! The plane is exceptional, and I love the flak bursts.

Brian Autor
Thank you Dean!

Łukasz Gliński
What a unique concept and great implementation 👍

Brian Autor
Thank you Łukasz!

Guy Rump
Lovely build and impressive dio, congrats. 👍

Brian Autor
Thanks Guy!

Paul Moore
Very clever diorama! Looks great. How did you motorize the props!? So nice!

Hans-Jürgen Haag
Great work, spectacular presentation!👍👍👍

David Taylor
Nice.

gorby
WOW, amazing display!

Matti Thomaes
Fantastic Super Fortress, like a real Old Battler, damaged but not down

Neil
Stunning work! Amazing presentation! 👏 👏 👏

Олег О
Fantastic! It's simply breathtaking!
