Very well-done Kevin. Makes me want to build the B-58 in the stash but it's so big I don't know where I would put the finished model

I am moving slowly along on this one the LG's are in place kinda tricky all three!The LG's need to be built while stilling drying to get the proper alignment of three different actuator arms on the main gear and two on the front.The instructions are not the best in drawing or location and to do one side a couple times hence work while drying.I am hoping the decals work well on these curves or I will have to come up with a plan B?I can find lots of D's/F's decals C's hmnn....

Looking good, Kev
So lets start with that the decals suck 1/2 of the yellows are out of register and the same with the stars and bars.The red stripes on the engine area were just to then all the decals are so off to painting.I am having to handle this A/C way to much broke off one of the fuel pods no biggie just the point.I am at the point I want to just finish and move on.

are you using the foil as masking material? I never thought of that, aluminum foil can be contoured and its less expensive than blue tape.

Interesting using foil. I been using Cling wrap, taped edges.
My first time Bill have used postit notes just would not stick and follow contours some 1/4" Tamy tape and foil was done in a snap.
Another one hits the cabinet not as good as the Hustler but pretty decent.I was able to cut away the most offending out register decal on the L/tail area while on the plane straight edge/razor/water.One can still see some register problems on the yellow arches but at this point it is what it is.The bloe of the engine area I played with clear blue kinda worked just those areas usually had silver w/blue on top ...next plane.
