LEGO B-36 Wing WIP

The past few days have been very busy for the b-36. I’ve been able to make substantial progress to the outer portions of the wing and have even been able to make the engine pods. I still need to do quite a bit of work on the underside of the model including adding the main engine intakes along with completing the tile work on the underside of the wing. The engines are now fully functional and I still have yet to make the 3 other engine covers for the wing. Structural integrity has been a challenge on this model with an almost 6 ft wing span especially when it comes to warp in the wing. Since this model is designed to be portable in order to facilitate transport the main internal structure on the wing is split up into 6 pieces. This causes a load of issues when it comes to the structure of the model. However, by adding more to the bottom surface of the wing that should help resolve any remaining warp. Sorry about the poor picture quality but I just wanted to share a bit of progress with the community.
