falcon Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 This kit came out about 3 years prior to the 'real' B-2 unveiling ceremony, so it is not what the real B-2 looks like. The cockpit was very basic so I decided to add a little bit of artistic detail.
falcon Posted November 21, 2009 Author Posted November 21, 2009 This pic shows the top fuselage/wing sections that have been glued and pinned together. The fuselage/wing has also had the panel lines scribed but still needs a lot of work. The wingspan is almost a wopping 27" (675mm) and is 15" (381mm) long.
Deon Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 Makes for an excellent Whiff, nice work on the pit too.
falcon Posted December 21, 2009 Author Posted December 21, 2009 Finally after a good number of weeks there has been a little bit of progress on this mighty beast. I have got round to putting a few extra details into the cockpit. These are a Microwave, a Coffee Machine with cup and thanks to Clive putting ideas into my head a fridge with fridge magnets.
Modelling Mushi Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Now it looks to my untrained eye that there is still room for a PS3 and bean bags . . . Interesting fitout, might also have space for a sleep out hammock for the relief a la truckie style!
falcon Posted May 2, 2010 Author Posted May 2, 2010 The Revell ATB is coming along nicely now. Finished the painting now and just planning what to do decal wise.
Skii Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 Nice work Chris, looks like a real head turner, what paints will you be using ?
falcon Posted May 6, 2010 Author Posted May 6, 2010 Cheers guys. So far I have used Xtracrylix Dark Sea Grey for the main colour and Gunze Sangyo H305 (Gunship Grey) for some of the panel highlighting.
Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 Nice so far Chris, have you figured out what decals you will be using? I reckon an after market B-2 sheet would do nicely.
falcon Posted May 7, 2010 Author Posted May 7, 2010 Cheers. I will be using the Bergemot 1/72 B-2 decal sheet on this one, or bits of it at least.
thx6667 Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 I often wonder if Northtrop saw that kit and thought "oh crap, that's what we should have built!"
Dave Fleming Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Always though the wing planform of that kit resembled a smoothed out Vulcan!
themimic2000 Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 Hey Chris How did you pin the "wings" to the center? I am starting mine now. Thanks Bob
