Here’s the latest addition to my fleet - Minicraft’s lovely DC-4 with F-DCAL decals for the KLM white top livery. The kit is more or less out of the box. As usual the white is Halfords and the natural metal is AK Interactive Xtreme Aluminium with some Rub n Buff for contrast. The KLM decals performed a lot better than the SAS ones which I moaned about in my DC-6 RFI a few weeks ago. There are even fewer photos of KLM DC-4s than SAS DC-6s but from what I’ve seen details, particularly antennae, seem to have varied from aircraft to aircraft and some machines had long engine intakes while others had short ones so my model is “typical” rather than a 100% accurate replica of the real PH-DBZ. Next up should be a Dutch aircraft from a later generation - a 757 which is currently in the paint shop and which I’m planning to finish in Martinair colours. It will be a while before it’s ready and it might even be overtaken by one of my other projects. Time will tell! Thanks for looking and constructive criticism is always welcome.
