X-15 A2 1/48 (Special Hobby)


Recommended Posts

Pretty nasty plastic, clunky and mis-shapen, but the resin and photo etch that came with it weren't bad at all and helped make it an ok build in the end. Prefered the look of the full lower fin so decided not to use the horrible front undercarriage and quite nice resin dolly, which meant I'd have to make a stand too. Opened up the airbrakes and scratched the bits needed for the isnide and plumbed the tanks while i was at it. Only bought aftermarket was the decal set for the tanks.

Hello,Noeyedears - I don't know anything about the kit but I do know a grand looking model when I see one and that is what you have here in your 'X15'.I love the quality of finish,the detail and the display mounting.All the best,Paul.

thanks for the kind comments chaps :wub:

sleeperservice - the plus side is that the low parts count means there arent 250 parts to swear at and cry :deadhorse: - give it a go
