Welcome aboard, Oliver! Your X-29 looks very well done. Did you have any problems with the decals? Especially those long stripes?

Watching of course! I assembled one a long time ago...but purchased the next one 😄. I love this plane (and the kit too 😉 )

Yes, unfortunately the decals on the underside of the plane caused some problems with the bulges

Not much new here. I have just smoothed some seams, but painting white has been revealed to be more labored. I wanted to add a better ejection seat so I aqquired an F-5's ejection seat (F-5/T-38 (Pavla Models S72017, 1:72)), because this is a Frankenplane. But then I found out that X-29 actually uses a Martin Baker ejektion seat (M.B. GQ 7A Ejection Seat (Aires 7146, 1:72)), so I got more delays.

Following. attempted to complete it some time ago, but the decals turned out to be quite vulnerable to the decal softeners, namely Micro Sol. You have been warned and I still plan to build another one in the future.

Thanks, Woody! I just removed my decals from my window. Not much yellowness anymore. I will be careful with them.

This kit seems to be quite some work. 👍
Ah man, seeing your X-29 makes me want to retry my Su-47. 😄

Finally I'm again continuing this after Raccoon. My greatest obstacle was the white color, that I got solved with Tamiya fine surface primer spray. It smelled awful, but worked much better than my acrylics. One great invention was to spray the paint to a cup, pour the paint to my airbrush and so fix some tiny points on the model.

Lucky you mate! My decals dissolved when treated with MicroSol. I still promise myself to build it once again 🙂

Gentlemen, I declare the X-29 is ready! And it is not perfect... The decals were really tricky especially on the leading edge of the wings. My clear varnish had filled many of the panel lines. After removing the mask from the canopy I noticed that I didn't paint the front of the cockpit enough so there is a visible white area...

Well, looks good from where I stand 😉
