White Knight Two & Spaceship Two
Overview of the kit
Assembling fuselage with lead weights in the nose section.
Had to use Niodimium magnets inside the wing and inside the Spaceship Two, in order to make it removeable from White Kight Two.
White Knight fuselages, wing and engines assembled.
Assembling Spaceship Two fuselage. Had to use three Niodimium magnets, as one magnet was not sufficient for the weight of the fuselage + lead weight of Spaceship Two.

Although the model was from the first Spaceship Two, which have had a fatal accident, I took a builder's license to portrait the new Spaceship Two livery, with metallic back portion of the fuselage/wings.
I used kitchen metal foil and PVA glue for the job.
Decals and Future applied on both aircraft. I will still make the lateral "eye" decal for the Starship Two.
Bottom of the aircraft with decals.
Made the "lateral Virgin Eye" decal in inkjet printer and placed them. With the foil background the decals fitted alright for the SpaceShip Two.
