Nowhere near finished and I only did a couple of passes with primer and paint to seal the wood grain. Decals are for a Frank Burke Dynasoar X-15 Boost glider that Sticker Shock sells. I have a bunch more to put on. I will have a special set made for this model that Mark is working on now.
I added panel lines just basic ones nowhere near scale accurate. I used flat black primer first then added the tape and sprayed semi gloss over the tape. Once removed it let nice crisp panel lines and they pop because they are flat.
Despite being sport scale she is looking the part and is a nice size.
More tomorrow.

Steve, looking very, very nice! I was just looking at photos of the X-15 online. In one of them I saw something I'd never seen before. A sphere at the bottom of the tail. Do you know what is is or what it's for. Too small to be R2D2.
Steve, nothing is loading

This tells all about the X-15 progress and more
Thank you so much William. I'm so sorry to hear about your back. I hope that you do get out to fly somehow some way!Well, I couldn't resist any longer and just ordered the big X-15 from SNG! Such a great looking bird that I am looking forward to putting it together!
Now I just wish I had a place to fly within a reasonable distance from me! I live in the middle of the six million acre Adirondack Park in upstate NY so not many places around here to launch and I have back troubles that prevent me from riding in a vehicle for any length of time.
But I can still build them and enjoy them anyway!
