Some WIP of my actual project, a X-15A2. The Special Hobby Kit is a real nightmare, but I am happy with the result...started my compressor today to paint the fuselage, I tried to simulate the abrassive paint with many different colour shades...Cheers, Christian

Nice work Christian - you know that Sanger and HPH offer quarter scale B-52s? 😉

Many thanks again for your motivating words my friends!
Yes Thomas, a B-52 in Quarter Scale...this would be nice 😉 But I guess I have to move into another place when my wife would see the box 😉
Decals are on, now I apply a grey-wash...will post some pics after that...Cheers, Christian

I agree Hanno: very well rendered original (non painted but anodized) surface of the X-15.

Spanjaard
i fully agree with Hanno and Bernhard

Fantastic work once again Christian! The weathered surface is really well done, which can be hard to do depicting that type of surface. I will certainly refer to this build when I build mine some day. Very inspiring!
