Seversky Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 Thank you all! I will try to meet your expectations and finish the build as soon as possible. hello Impressive work. I am always amazed by such scratch work. I have the same box with Caracal decals. As for the exhausts I got lazier than you by buying Aires resin set romain I read this article and decided to do without the aftermarket sets. http://www.hyperscale.com/2009/reviews/accessories/lsmb58nozzlesreviewdwa_1.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex-FAAWAFU Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Holy Cow, you must have steady hands! I reckon I could just about match some of the raised hydraulics lines, but the neatness of things like those green ?oxygen bottles inside deep holes is just as good, and I couldn't do that in a month of Sundays. Excellent stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David H Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 That is some very, very impressive work. Are you planning to use the Fisher intakes? Cheers david Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navy Bird Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Glad I stumbled onto this thread - this is really nice work. When you added the details to the front landing gear and wheel well, were you working from reference photos or just using artistic license? It looks very impressive either way! I'm looking forward to more of your work on the Hustler - this is one of the few Monogram 1:48 scale models that I did not build back in my youth.

Navy Bird Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 The detail in the wheel well and on the nose gear is simply astounding! Beautiful work, Seversky! Were the reflectors in the landing lights made from sequins? I think that is the word for those small, shiny fashion disks sewn into clothing.

bentwaters81tfw Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Stunning work. Mine got a coating of zinc chromate and that was it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Can TARI Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Sometimes when I see such craftsmanship, I feel the model manufacturers -no matter how unintentional- good to keep their models at certain levels of detail and leave the rest to modellers... And in this way can we be introduced to real modelling skills... I hope the rest comes even better and we all see a superb Hustler... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan P Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Just out of interest: did you have information for the colour of the wheel bays? I know the restored ones have yellow zinc chromate, but I've also seen interior green and light aircraft grey suggested. I'm not suggesting for a second that you should change the colour, just collecting information for my next B-58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
