XB-70 Valkyrie - Murph's Models

Hello

Latest test build from Murph's Models, the North American XB-70 Valkyrie. Nothing challenging about the build even though it's quite large, however the landing gear has several rather small parts. There is some warping of the upper fuselage, not a design error rather general rustiness on my part.

Scale is approximately 1:114

White model on white background-makes for very ghost-like image.

Can you do some pictures on contrasting color so I can make out details?

Valid point, I thought there would be more contrast based on lighting. I'll dig up a grey background.

I wonder if thicker card paper will be better on these very long span parts?
