Bell X1 P-Model
Here are the first parts of the 1:33 P-Model ,
I want to build it with the hatch open , so I removed it. This looks like a nice kit, no too difficult, no fitting problems I got it here;Papercraft P.Model - Card model.Paper models Last edited by billy.leliveld; 11-11-2011 at 01:46 AM. |

Thanks for the link to the company. Looks like some nice models. I can't remember a model of the Ohka in anything larger than 1/72.

Hello Billy.
How are you? Long time no see In the past i build the Bell X-1 from a japanees site (i forget wich one) But this one looks more beautiful and i think, no I know, that with you precicion and experience this model will be a very clean and beautiful object.

Oooooooo gooody! I have this sitting on my hard drive as we speak. I've been waiting for a good example to see before I fully tackled it. Now I'll have a pure text book!

Some more work done, I have glued some thin electrical wire around the hatch, just to give it some body, like the picture I found of the 2nd X1
it's coming around just fine What I like about this kit is that the designer makes it possible to build it as advanced as you like, you can build it whit-out interior or tabs from the back, it's just an ideal kit for any skill level, the instructions look a bit unconventional, but are very accurate if you look at them, the red arrows show exactly where the tabs should go, no knowledge of japanese required Last edited by billy.leliveld; 11-12-2011 at 01:52 PM. |

As a completely non-modelling aside - "Glamorous Glennis" is a trademark (owned by Gen. Yeager) which has created some challenges for kit manufacturers and decal publishers. One decal company went so far as to have "Glamor Glen" on sheet 1 of the decal set and "ous" and "nis" on sheet 2 in order to evade the trademark restrictions. Now back to the build...
Another superb build by the Flying Dutchman!

Well I hope General Yeager isn't following this thread, so mr Kiyonaga doesn't get a lawsuit
A drop of this stuff on each instrument makes it look much better.. |

I'm so glad you're building this!
I've never seen anyone else make it before, and there is only one little picture of the finished model on the site. This will be cool.
