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.
The kit...
All car kits builds I have been working on are put on hold until I get this bird done.

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.

Tires painted. Came with masks for canopy and wheels for the tires. Tonight, I’ll button jump the fuselage wings

Hopefully, I’ll start painting the ol’ bird.
