WIP SM55X I-BALB (1/72 Delta 2 Kit)

[VH-WAL]

This thing has been on my bench for months, due to its unconventional configuration and challenging build it was often pushed back in a box on the shelf. I finally got the energy to get this far. Markings are a mixture of paint, sparse kit decals and homemade decals. portholes are filled with crystal clear which has yet to dry, various masts and a air generator need to be glued on and I need to heat smash a few observation domes.
Touch ups required and more decal setting solution and treatment required to get rid of a few wrinkles, so a few more hours work yet but it wont be for a week or two as we are off on a road trip.

Very cool Wally - kind of reminds me of a manta ray.





Got to be one of the weirdest looking aeroplanes around.

You must've inspired 'em to rebuild it, Wally!
