Thanks jessie for your kind words

Lets not forget a full rescribe whew that was a lot of scratching.

Hi Justin

An inspirational build! I've really enjoyed following your updates on how you totally transformed the old kit.

All the best

Rowan

I still can't see the propellers!

Seriously inspiring build Justin, I really enjoyed following along and you have given me plenty of ideas for my pending Monogram P-61 makeover.

Cheers, D

Thanks merlin.

Auss thanks and I have the old monogram boxing of the p-61 that will get the same treatment.who needs the new kits
My next build is a complete rescribe of the monogram century series f-102a.I will be making it into the bmf yf-102a that started it all then maybe back to the prop things

Justin, Just a fantastic build from day one. As you already know, I followed your complete build, and was just blown away by all the details, and corrections you made. Those wheel wells are just outstanding to say the least.

Looking forward to following your YF-102A build. Should be a great ride for all of us.

Thanks joel and appreciate you following thankfully there's notnear as much landscape to cover on the 102

Justin, too late to be any good, I snagged this pic of SR-71 tires at a museum yesterday..

What a sweet build..The SR 71 is kinda sexy...ok.....Real sexy but not as SEXY as the X-15 (sex on a stick).

However can I use some of your build blog ideas to do my WON(1)..

I'd like to do a NASA 2 seater.
