@APDAF
Your drawing doesn't even really match the (up-scaled) SB-scale one. ;)
Try this:

(I guess that I should enlarge the diameter of propellers even more, though)
note, that "superstructure" has a tear-drop shape - that's why the line at its base is partially black, partially grey.

@Heuhen
Try to think of this one: ;)

That was quick! :shock:

Thank you.
I know it does not scale up I should really not draw things at 2am.

P.S: Do I credit you for this?

Well, for the beginning, the fuselage wouldn't be covered in metal, but with wood and canvas (and even if it were covered in metal, it would be in a different manner). Secondly, the wings wouldn't have the same thickness from the leading to trailing edge. Thirdly, both ends of fuselage, as well as both ends of "superstructure" are rounded (like vertical cyllinders) so should be shaded accordingly. Tires wouldn't be brown, but more grey-black. And You could work more on these bombs. ;)

Those aren't rivets and panel gaps, there stitches and seams.
I'll fix it later.

If you can see the seams in cloth at this distance then it's either done with rope or coming apart
“Close” only counts with horseshoes, hand grenades, and tactical nuclear weapons.
That which does not kill me has made a grave tactical error
