I finally finished the A2 in black. A lot of research went into this model. The model is built using molds I made off the wind tunnel model at Edwards, from there I built a CAD model using all the drawings and info I have, then matched the model to the CAD.

Fantastic work! And with using molds from the model at Edwards, its got some history to it as well.
I'v always wondered what's with the thick vertical stabilizer and blunt rear end. Why was it made that way?

This one is totally off the hock. I love this jet/rocket and you built it in 1/15. I wish I could do some CAD work and do plans of jets that aren't in large scale. Super job!!

Here's my lateset X-15A-2 in 1/15th scale. I've done the entire vehicle in CAD and I use that model to create the 2d layouts for all the rivets and details. I've found that instead of applying individual strips of rivets, I use large decals that cover about 80% of the surface. I've also found that printing on vinyl works great, it's almost indestructable once applied and can be used outdoors, tho' I doubt anyone would display this outside.
I have three more in production as well as a 1/40th XB-70. I've started using Shapeways to print stainless steel parts like the speedbrake arms for the X-15, they dont have a setup fee but the turn around isnt rapid. JP |
