Academy 1/144 scale B-2 Stealth Bomber
I'm glad it arrived today. Now I can jump on this for a family friend. I'm 100% positive he will be surprised when I present it to him. I have doubt he's forgotten the conversation we had of his desire of wanting a B-2 Stealth Bomber kit built.

I’m starting to like this project…

Sprayed a coat of flat white for base for when I spray Insignia White as final coat. I don’t want to put multiple coats of Insignia white to get the best coverage. Yeah… white is a difficult color as is yellow to achieve a good coat.

My plan is to use Have Glass by Mission Model and throw a coat of enamel gloss clearcoat to seal in that paint brand. Mission Model paint is very notorious to being scratched easily if not handled carefully.
