| There's been a lot of work between the box and where you are now. What metallizing paint are you using? I've got two of these monsters still in the box, but never had enough gumption to start them, let alone where to display them. |

| rayl, I have pics of the work but didn't put it on the website. The paint I am using is Rust-oleum American Accents (also Bonds to Plastic). The white paint for the bottom (flash paint) will be Krylon fusion for plastic. I haven't found quite the right silver paint yet. I have a 1:48 b-29 I will work on after this one. It will also be silver. |

| This is a great plastic kit. I assembled one about 4 years ago, and since it was molded in silver colored plastic, I did not paint the main surfaces. Yours will be a beautiful model ! |
