    Thanks again Harv. The kit is still available. I highly recommend it.

    Thanks Harv. Some of the old Revell kits are simply a blast to build. They may have flash and pin marks but were all scale model builds!!

    Thanks Dennis. I have a second in my stash. I’ll look forward to rebuilding it some day!

    With a bit of help from HobbyTown’s Tammy Tyrannosaurus I was able to find the correct paints needed to complete my Bell X-1 kit.

    Oh thanks. I hope you’ve enjoyed it.

    Oh thanks Peter. I’m enjoying building the kit a second time using my current skill set. I’m essentially a Dark Side kit builder now however I do enjoy the odd aircraft build one in a while. The X-1 is for a FB group build over at The Basement Air Force.

    Thanks Peter. It’s been a pretty straightforward build so far!
  8. RalphSarc
    Oh good!!! There’s lot of A1A kits out there however I’m enjoying Trumpeters version pretty well!

    Assembled the large cockpit parts in step 2 and 3 so will do research on color call outs etc tomorrow and look at weather too.

    Love the detail.

    Worked of and on all afternoon detailing the X-1 cockpit. While slightly embellished I think it has plenty of interest especially with the hatch open.
  12. RalphSarc
    Did a bit a shadow shading using XF-61 Dark Green.
  13. RalphSarc
    Something new for me. Did some scratch building behind the pilots seat to add some interest rather than a blank bulkhead. The reference photo clearly shows equipment mounted there!

    Thanks Peter. The Artistro Acrylic Pens are a game changer when adding fine detail. I highlighted all the X-1 cockpit switches plus I used it exclusively to paint and highlight the X-1 rocket engine.

    Thanks Kevin. I’m still learning and experimenting painting figures.
  16. RalphSarc
    Me too!! It’s a very unique piece of armor!
  17. RalphSarc
    It was!! I really enjoyed the build!

    Thanks so much. I really like hanging my plane builds by their tails on my study walls. Thanks so much. Unfortunately I’m running out of wall space, lol!!!
  19. RalphSarc
    All done!! The kits an oldie but a goodie but lots of fun to build.
  20. RalphSarc
    I’m also going to use my Artistro Acrylic Paint Pen Set to highlight as many cockpit switches as possible.

    After letting the hairspray dry while I ran to HomeDepot I over coated the cockpit with a base of XF-13 which compared to pictures is pretty darn close I think. might do some shading using Dark Green XF-61.
  22. RalphSarc
    Thanks I was pretty pleased with the results! Lots of fun!!
  23. RalphSarc
    Oh thanks!! It’s a great kit to build!!

    Finished my 1/35 Tamiya German Sturmgeschutz sdjfz163 Tank. Really pleased with my Tank Commander figure!!
  25. RalphSarc
    Sprayed an undercoating of XF-16 Flat Aluminum so I can spray with hairspray then paint with XF-13 JA Green to add some chipping and scratch details.
