This is my first airliner. My very firast model way back in 1977 was a Boeing 747 but my dad built that one.  Anyway, the kit is OOB with Flying colors Northwest Airlines decals.  The decals were awesome!I had a couple near disasters painting the silver but the white helped some and the Future coat helped as well.  Here's the pics.

I just got one for 11 bucks. Huh?  Wondering if it was a good deal or not.  Anyway,  Nice job!  Any builds I can follow or and tips.  I hear the silver was the most exciting part of the build.  Stick out tongue  Then again, I always hear silver is the best part of the build, even if it is foil.  I got the C118A presindential from mini craft, it looks like the same box and even the same airplane.Big Smile  Anyhow  great job!

Looks great!  This is Northwest territory (or was anyway) so I really appreciate the livery.
