XB-70

[Bockscar]

I’ll paint my hard won kits in gloss white, not too imaginative, but at least they showed up that way.

i didn’t realize they put lights in the exhausts for shows…lol…

The XB-70, my second favourite airplane!

The AMT kit is pretty good, I spent time bolstering it’s innards:

This is so the wing doesn’t act like a jelly sandwich:

This really flattened out and joined the underside of the wings:

I hate ‘squishy’ builds, so I put in bulkheads, makes the kit 'sound right, I also had to put about 5 pieces of sprue into the forward fuselage to get it to fill into the wing slots…

I’ll post it here if it progresses…
