Convair B-58 “Hustler” in 1:48 scale

As the Dakota, the mighty Convair B-58 "Hustler" is a good subject to show how aluminium foil gives such birds an absolutely realistic metal finish. As all Monogram kits, the model is easy to build and I did it o.o.b. To foil the model with kit[...]

Hello friends, after a year of dedication, I finished what I consider to be my most challenging assembly until now, where I applied all the knowledge I have. This classic cold war bomber, the B-58 Hustler, on the 1/72 scale from Italeri, is a [...]

This build was one of my first forays into the NMF finish using those buffable metalizers. After spraying the base color, I Futured the entire thing and then set about masking with Tamiya's 'yellow' tape. By spraying different shades of Titaniu[...]
