It's a cheesy photo but it shows how big my B17 Aircrew tribute plaque is. About 70cm by 40cm and 2 cm deep. Hand made in my garage from cold cast bronze. Inspired by the sacrifice of the Mi Amigo B17 Americian AirForce Bomber in Sheffield on the 22nd of February 1944, the dedication shown ever since by Tony Foulds in keeping their memory alive and the deaths of 400 other Allied Aircrew that day. Once the frame is finished I'm giving this to Tony Foulds. #b17 #ww2 #flyingfortress #b17aircrew #aircrew #usairforce #theb17aircrew #airmen #miamigo #sheffieldgotaflypast #miamigoflypast #highrelief #memorial #plaque #coldbronze #22feb1944 #alliedairforce #handmade #sculpture #305thbombgroupcando #305thheavybombgroup https://www.instagram.com/p/BvtJXB_Figt/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=n6ymsi6idue4

Very nearly finished the B17 Flying Fortress tribute plaque inspired by the sacrifice of the crew of Mi Amigo on February 22nd 1944 and the dedication of Sheffield resident Tony Foulds in looking after their memorial. I'll be moulding it soon. #miamigo #tonygotaflypast #sheffieldgotaflypast #tonyfoulds #sheffield #ww2 #b17 #flyingrortress #alliedaircrew #aircrew #usairforce #raf #airforce #plaque #memorial #USembassy #usa #flyingfortress #bombercommand #305thbombgroup #americanairmuseum #endcliffepark #305thbombgroupcando #305thcando #dday #bigweek #royalbritishlegion #sculpture #memorial #clay https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu3rJqxlwk7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8i4gk8yng687
