Looks different in that scheme

Nice build. Always did like that early stealth concept, with all the free flowing lines. Actually that scheme was used on the graphic painting of that plane as used in advertisements by LORAL defense communications, about 1984-ish. The first concept arts of that F-19 appeared in AWST in 1983. The Monogram kit was soon after. Although my kit was a single seat, craig's is two seat- did you modify or was there a kit of a two-seat? also the kit I had contained stubby very rounded short tail fins, this looks like a parts from another kit.

One of my obtuse tales - Alert......I saw a simple ad by Loral in AWST magazine with that image and sent in their comment card and asked them for a poster if they could spare it. I didn't realize that I had grabbed the card from a copy of Av week borrowed from a fellow Engineer at IBM and the comment card had that business address hidden in a corner. So I had penned my home address on the card and figured that I would get a 11x14 manila envelope with a nice poster for my modelmaking room in it, bliss. They assumed I was someone with actual purchasing clout who had missed a trade show and so sent a BOX full of 300 of those 14x21 posters AND a trade show sized banner.  

I probably should have asked if they had any demo models from the trade show left over, but passed because they might have sent a F-19 mockup they were done with studying and had no store-room space for !

No idea why, but Clint Eastwood and Firefox came straight to my head when I saw this.
