That’s some nice looking upgraded ordnance! That’ll look real nice on your model when complete.

Slowly working on recalling the missiles. It’s enough to make one’s eyes tired after a long day at work. Started decal session on the bird until I realized the tail rudder needs to be painted yellow! :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:
I didn’t noticed it until I saw the checkered decals on the sheet. Ah well, time to pull out the AB…

Yup... got the first light coat on last night. Too late to spray a second tonight. Tired from work and the errands I’ve committed to do this evening and eyes are getting tired. I prefer to tackle it when I’m more focused in the morning.... after I’ve had my coffee of course. :giggles: Oh yeah... let’s not forget making some fried dough to go with it. Yum!

I’ve been puttering on with this bird off and on these last couple weeks - mainly decal sessions. I’m almost done but only have the tail decals to do.

I’ve also jumped on a couple kits in between… Dragon’s 1/144 scale B-52G Stratofortress and the 1962 Bel Air Super Stock kit.

Sounds like you’re keeping busy at the workbench Tom.

Decal session is done on this bird. All is left are the main struts, gear doors, nose pitot, missile armaments, belly tank, tail rudder fins, and a clearcoat of flat to finish her off. Hopefully I’ll be done by the end of the week.
