1/330 ish SR 71 Blackbird


Recommended Posts

First ready for inspection- eek!

Picked up this “Metallic Nano Puzzle” in Tokyo for about £5/ $10 AUD. The range includes planes, trains, cars, ships, Star Wars and buildings. The Lunar Lander looked good although I think your average astronaut may have problems recognizing the Space Shuttle. Not sure if they are distributed in the UK or Oz.

My finished SR 71 does not bear close inspection. It looks as though it has flown through a brick wall - backwards. However I had great fun building it in a masochistic sort of way. It needed a dose of verbal abuse to get into shape (always helps!). Scaled out at about 1/330.

Pencil and nail were used to form the fuselage, nacelles and intake cones.
