I thought I shared this build here but guess not. If you don't like "what-it's", turn back now. I bought this kit not knowing what I wanted to do with it. I looked at the aftermarket decals but couldn't decide on any so I decided to throw a curve. With 787's being built here in Charleston now I decided to do kind of a tribute. They share the field with Charleston AFB and the 437th AW so I decided Boeing would give one to the local unit, just had to be taxied across to be delivered. I used the C-17 decals from the Revell kit and the only grey I had. Windows and doors are from Rib Hobby Decals in China and they went on very well. The kit went together well as well, with just minor sanding and putty. A satin clear coat covers everything. So, here's some pics. Chris

Sweet build Chris! I'm a big fan of "What If" schemes and have a few in mind as well.
