X-15 images

I just got a 1/72 X15 kit and would like to show it as it’s just returned from a mission, where I suspect re-enty took a toll on the paint job and lettering. Does anyone have pics or a links to such images of a worn blue/black X-15 or X-15 variant? Thx I’d really like to build a 1/48, but they pricey and rare on ebay.

These are pretty much every picture I used when doing mine

Very funny. I guess I should just send you my kit since I’ll never match that level of detail. Thanks for the pics. Looks like the white Albative coating X-15s got and show the most abuse to the paint from a mission. I may have to exaggerate the wear on a blue/black one. Or maybe yellow and totally blow eveyones’ minds.
