United B757

Very nice.The grey color seems to be spot on.How did you achieve that?

Hi Thanks very much. The Fuselage grey is Tamiya AS-2.

Very nice!  Did the kit come with the dropped flaps?

nice job on that build.

Thanks Ron very much!!

Very nice Brad.  What paints did use on the engines?

Very nice job, especially on the flaps.

Hi and thanks for the reply. The engines and bottom of fuselage were painted with Tamiya dark blue.

That one is pretty clean by United standards.

Yes!........Very clean....waiting for the rain to wash her off!

Thanks,

Brad

How did you replicate the tarmac?

Hi Manstein,

It was photographed on a portion of dry-wall that I cut in half. One side is painted and other is not painted.

Wow, beautiful build.  Thank you for posting.

What color is the wing? It looks really close to the Boeing Gray.

Hi,

It is Tamiya AS-20 color

NIce work Brad. This old scheme seemed to wear especially hard, and weathering airliners realistically is hard. Still like this livery better than the hybrid Continental/United scheme. It's like they picked the worst of both worlds.

Cheers, Aaron

Fantastic build! I think you captured this one perfect. I love the tarmac, and the weathering. It looks like a picture of the real deal. Congrats on a job well done. Thanks for sharing

Thanks Aaron,

Yes...she's been through a battle-ship of miles. I agree new UA livery is a mistake!

....Thanks very much!!!
