Revell 738 kit, Contrails 737 fuselage and Draw + kit decals. All of the products were a breeze to use and yet I managed to turn it into a struggle. First off I managed to some how place the windows and Ethiopian title decal too high. For some reason I couldnt get it to line up right and after several attempts at moving it around I gave up. Also the gloss coat for some reason stained around almost every decal not sure what happened but not much I can do about it now except let dust cover it. I wasnt going to post pics but I figured its good to post the not so good builds from time to time. At some point I imagine Ill redo this 1 or bury it behind a bigger plane. Critique, flame or just point and laugh if you want to:
Hey, I have nothing to laugh at, because I do not know about civil planes much, but it sure looks great.

Thx Andrew.
Iám a Airliner builder and you did a terrific job, it looks very good indeed. What type of gloss coat did you use (Future?)
Happy modeling

Yes it was future. I think I also figured out how to avoid the staining/yellowing around the decals. Sadly, it will be a awhile before I can post results as I applied the decals the same way as I did on the 737 on my current builds, which are South African 738, South African 343, Ethiopian 763 and EgyptAir 738. The staining isnt as bad on these though. I do have a 732 that is at the decalling stage maybe Ill bump it up in the rotation and post.
Your build looks great! I appreciate your post...it's nice that someone else shares the same struggles as myself!
You've done a wonderful job! Looks very good. Sparkling, beautiful decal job too.

Thx guys. Also Ive had better luck with decals lately. I was using micro set/sol and I stopped using the set, so far so good. Sadly I need to replace my camera, hopefully Ill be able to get a new one in the coming weeks.
It is a really nice looking kit, but the only problem are winglets. You obviously used ones from the box and they are inaccurate

Yeah, they are the kit winglets. I have no excuses for not correcting them.
