Here is a
1/48-scale kit of a jet that never flew; the government cancelled the project
because of cost overruns and other contractual problems.
This was
my first resin kit and was a learning experience to say the least.
I used Tamiya acrylic paints to airbrush the finish and had a friend
scribe the nameplate with a NC milling machine.
The only major problem was the resin hinges; I replaced them all with
.010 thick brass and was pleased with the results. This was also my first paid
project. The customer is a
vice-president of a law firm that actually worked on the case with the
government.

The cockpit was
loaded with details and took the most time to complete.

Some more pictures showing the
armament and the sleek shape of the A-12.
