GVoakes Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 something completed, finally! I figured that with time getting short, I should get something done. To that end, I grabbed one of my Eduard X-1s from the stash. Nice kit, although I realize that my in progress pics are on the other computer. Anyways, without further ado... Rather than do the typical X-1, I thought I would used the Cutting Edge decals and do one of the NACA aircraft. And, with a week to go, back to the X-15... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jay Chladek Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 I like the fact you chose something that wasn't painted orange with "Glamorous Glennis" on it. Not many people do X-1s in the white paintjobs. Nice work! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
niart17 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 very nice build. i've always liked the looks of the X-1. it looks like it was just fired from a rifle. thanks for sharing and yes, i'd love to see the in progress pics on this one. Bill Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GVoakes Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 Thanks guys! Bill, I will dig those pics out and post them. The decals are from the Cutting Edge sheet - well worth it, as it gives you the option to do any X-1. I decided to do the NACA as it was white (and not, as Jay alluded to, Glamourous Glennis) and had the best markings, IMHO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike J. Idacavage Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Great work! I also like the change of color scheme from the more usual Glamorous Glennis configuration. Anything to look out for with this kit? I have several copies in my stash, but have never started one. Too much plastic, too little time! Have fun modeling!
