    Thanks! No, it was not loadad during the fist roll-out and flight. So, it was decided to skip this element. To be honest, I've tired with building...

    Hi, It is reasonable for case of regular white Airbus livery, but not for prime coating colors. As soon as "primer" scheme was selected, it was decided do not put something inside on cargo room...

    Small victory, as result of my work... :-)

    Very good realization in both cases! Especially I like model from Polish forum: - cargo space - aeronavigation lights - A320 body add-on - landing gears - weathering - etc. Of course, I’ll found something critical to say, but I really like what and how this person from Poznan done. As I can conclude, he is registered here also. @Milczacy, hello! I like your Beluga! My congrats!

    So... The project AIRBUS A300-600ST BELUGA that was started in Sep'16 is completed now. Original body: Airbus A300-600ST BELUGA Model: Revell 04206 Scale: 1/144 Aftermarket parts: no Livery: Airbus Beluga first roll-out and flight color scheme It was challenging project, but not all things I kept in mind was realized here. Anyway, to be honest, I like the result . Initially, it was quite old mid-quality Revell kit and ordinary livery in the box (as for me). Of course, white modern Airbus home livery is good but do not expect you'll get bright model on your shelf after completion... Looking for detailed photos of Beluga, I've found some interesting pics of first roll-out and flight and finally decided to make my model with this painting scheme! I've collected almost all photos of Beluga from that time period. At least, all available in inet . It is just 8 pics, +2 videos. That is all I had for start... Link to build (WIP):

    Andrii, That was last variant (after copying, from Revell, from friends, ...) ))) I think, you're right... I can do that, but I've tired with this build. More than 1 year due to limited time available for my hobby (( To be honest, initially I planned to do cargo door that can be opened/closed with working mechanization... But later I decided to skip that, because I was not sure it can be normally realized in 144 scale... But my colleague from Odessa will send me that part next week... So, hope to complete this kit next weekend /// Igor

    Missed to put photo of this part to my previous post... Now issue is solved. My colleague will send me this part next week. Btw, just got answer from Revell : "This item is a cull item. The parts are not any longer available."

    One element of two was lost last night. Seems, project will be on hold some time... I have some variants to solve issue... - to send request to Revell and ask to send me duplicate of this part by e-mail. (Requested. No response yet. Expecting several extra weeks for delivery) - to make a copy of this part in resin. (Just found local person who works with resin and can help. Possible term - next week. Bad things of this variant - copied resin element will be bolder than original because original item is covered with primer, paint and lacquer... But will keep in pocket) - to ask modellers who has BELUGA in stash to share this element, if they do not plan to assemble this kit with opened cargo door. (Such person was found quite close to my city. He will check his stash tonight and let me finally know. Expected delivery date - Tuesday next week!) - to make this element by myself... (latest what I'll try! ) To be continue...

    OraMask 811

    Yes, by myself... Just short comment about main part of decal - "beluga head" in dark blue and red colors. It seems, I'll paint this part after masking instead of decaling... The main reason for that, decal is printed on color laser printer and when I'm cutting pics close to printed edge, toner if falling down there (even when covered with lacquer/FUTURE). Anyway, my friend has plotted masks according to my drawings and already sent to me by mail. Tomorrow, I'll got that
