Me too! Okay, one.

X-1B

I gave the old paint a light wet sanding with 800 grit then sprayed on a coat of Floquil Old Silver. Next is masking for the Bright Silver.

Great smooth finish.

Yup, with Vic on that.

Gnomey · Feb 12, 2025

Good work so far Glenn!

T Bolt · Feb 13, 2025

Masking for the second shade of silver and sprayed it on.
I had a bit of panic last when I opened up the kit box and it was empty. no landing gear. No decals. After a 10 min search I found everything in the other X-1 kit box.

Gotta love that panic mode. Happens to me way to often

Crimea_River · Feb 13, 2025

Always a relief to find a missing part.

Vic Balshaw · Feb 13, 2025

Oh what panic that would have caused me, glad all turned out well and love the spray job.

Gnomey · Feb 13, 2025

Looks good so far Glenn!

T Bolt · Feb 14, 2025

All the masking is off including the stuff that's been on there for 5 years, some of which did not give up without a fight.
