Neat SR-75 and XR-7 and XB-70 Model Execution

[shockonlip]

During some searching over the hollidays, I found this.

I was impressed by the quality of construction and creativity/coolness of the color scheme
and attractiveness of the result. Builder was someone named Andy Davies. Evidently
won an IPMS show in the UK last year with it. I hope this isn't a repost.
Hope I put it in the correct place as well.

Included a few images, many more larger ones at the sources below:

Impressive!

I have the SR-75/XR-7 still in its box (I bought it 20 years ago) ...

...I have one still in box as well, although the box damn sure ain't mint. The late and still missed Village Hobby here in Austin had one on their markdown/damaged shelf for $4.00 USD, so I snatched it up. That was 15 years ago, and although I've thought about pulling it out and doing a kitbash, I can't seem to bring myself to do much modeling these days. About the only project that's come to mind is one that hit me in a dream a few weeks ago: a B-52 carrier with an Apollo CSM mounted for a drop test.

No. Really. I do blame the lasagna I had the night before, however...

Well, should you have the lasagna again, you might consider a B-52C carrying a B-1A escape module under the wing...inverted.

I hear you guys!

After spicy Italian last weekend, I dreamed I was on a B-52 and Summer Glau,
in black spandex, who was there (for some reason), was looking at me like I had
been a very naughty boy!

Been trying to get back there, with no luck!

My mom recently pulled my SR-75 out of my old room (long a model museum !) and put it on the lane sideboard, along with my Bombcorde
She justified her decision saying
"those big airplanes makes a nice exhibit there isn't it ? they were gathering dust in that old room..."

Thanks Mom. ;D
