Crown - I really like your EB4, very interesting model.

Thanks for the cooments on my 727 everyone. The white wings were just a peculiarity of those schemes Jack. For the earlier schemes that I mentioned, the wings are natural metal as you suggest.

Regards

Tony

I'm just taking it one GB at a time.

That is a beautiful build Crown Yes. I wish I could do so well with an airliner. I commend you on keeping all those small protrusions intact.

Thank you for joining up with the GB. Did you want one of those pictures on the Wall or did you want to take one with a background?

It looks oddly like mine, except your mat still has lines on it.
 
PS: Cody seems to be missing as of late, so I will move the wall pictures to the the roster page.

Crown, echoing what the others have said - it looks a very fine piece of work.  Yes

I've a few airliners in the stash, and would be stoked if they approach the  level you have achieved.

regards,

Jack

Yeah, I know, I missed the deadline!  Here is the 1/100 Nitto 727 in Mexicana colors.  I filled the cabin windows with clear resin and sanded them smooth.  The windshield is the kit part and the eyebrows are decals.  I had Mike Vyukil (Vintage Airliners Decals) make some vinyl window masks for the model from some CorelDraw artwork I supplied.  I put on three coats of model Master flat white followed by one coat of the Testors square bottle gloss white, with lots of drying time between coats.  The decals are more CorelDraw artwork drawn based on photos and are a sort of composite, no two Mexicana 727's were painted the same and the markings are to the taste of the person who will end up with the model.  The decals were printed on a Dell 1250C color laser printer.  Two coats of Future sealed everything up.
