David Newman Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Hello, Here are a couple of photos of the resin 1/72 XB-46 by Anigrand. The kit appears accurate in shape. The XB-46 had a wingspan near that of a B-24, but was 50% longer than a B-24. The larger parts were slightly distorted. This was overcome by gluing in sections. The nose glass is too small. The fuselage needed lots of putty above the wing, as this was indented. The model was donated to the the "First Flights Wall" at the Edwards AFB Museum. The Museum's F-100 shows up in the background of the photos. This collection is built with the canopy painted blue. The kit's decals were missing many markings.

Graeme H Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Sounds like a typical Anigrand build, but a great result, and really good NMF, also good to see it go on a permanent display Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head in the clouds. Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Nice build, I have yet to have the pleasure of an Anigrand build but have a couple awaiting processing. It is a gangly looking plane but clean in appearence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
