Groingrinder, I love the Lancaster one, 'tough night at the office' very astute of you to make it different by portraying the lesser known Hercules powered Mk II version. Very nice.
Here's a thought, if you have the time and inclination I'd be fascinated to see a fantasy pic of RAF Miles M.52'S intercepting Junkers EF.132's over London.

The HO 229 couldn't be hit by AA fire, it flew too high, at 52000ft, no weaponry could get that high, let alone accurately. The 2000mi. range was just one way, meaning, it could make it to the Eastern US, drop it's payload, of which could have been atomic had Germany succeeded in getting to it first, and then coast most the way back to France, using it's engines only as emergency boosts. The flying wing design made it aerodynamically outstanding, and able to be the most efficient powered glider of it's time.
