Sebastijan Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Hi everyone! My first build in this group build will be RS Models 1:72 Northrop XP-79 'Flying Ram'. I have a thing for Northrop's flying wings and weird aircraft designs, so this model seemed like an appropriate first candidate! :) No photos yet - I've only painted interior in Yellow Zinc Chromate, as I am still working on the MiG-31 atm... more updates next week. oh, and if you are wondering what kind of aircraft that was: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sebastijan Posted April 11, 2016 Author Share Posted April 11, 2016 Not much to show - I've finished the cockpit. Really simple affair and almost nothing will be seen of it when closed in the fuselage, so I didn't bother putting on washes or some other kind of detailing. Dryfit shows that inserting canopy will be, let's say, interesting :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
falcon20driver Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 It looks good so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sebastijan Posted May 7, 2016 Author Share Posted May 7, 2016 The fit of the canopy is tricky and I really wonder what the unmasking will reveal... but nonetheless, here she is in her light grey paint scheme (RS Models suggest using white, but available B&W photos suggest otherwise).

falcon20driver Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 That is such a unique airplane. It's looking great under paint. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
