PIOTR WITThank you for your nice comments. This model was awarded gold in its class at the SMW 2018 in Telford, UK. I am gong to make a small vignette with it by adding GE72029 access steps and 4 nukes from the recent Eduard's offering (they just came in time!). Perhaps I'll make it soon..

Mike GrantSuperb, that NMF is inspirational. Do you have any pics of it from above? I'd love to see how you painted the wings.

Album info
This is my B-58A Hustler in 1/72 scale. The model was built from Italeri set which is to be reissued these days - cat. No 1142, with some aftermarket upgrades, i.e. Airwaves PE set, Quickboost engine exhausts and Master Model Pitot tube. The model was painted mainly with Alclads. The decals come from Caracal Models.
