Parns Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 My build of the Anigrand 1/72 kit, using AK Interactive's Xtreme Metallics, not without problems. This model represents the first of the two prototypes, in her original configuration, as tested at Edwards AFB in 1949. 12
Unfinished project Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 Love these X-planes and never tire of seeing them especially when they’re build to this high standard 👍 1
ajmm Posted June 27, 2018 Posted June 27, 2018 Very nice. What problems did you have - kit or paints? I have this in 144. Yet to build but hoping to do so soon. I use AK Xtreme metallics too. Find them consistently excellent.

I use AK Xtreme metallics too. Find them consistently excellent. The kit was pretty straightforward, although I should have made more room in the aft fuselage for the jetpipe, and there were bubbles at the extremities of the flying surfaces. I've only recently started to use AK Xtreme paints, and there has been a learning curve - problems with the finish have been very common. I find it terribly easy to put too much on.
