  1. Old Airfix model from 80's rebuild as NASA Shuttle..originally as Moonraker kit. more views..
  2. Hi, Here's an sample I built as Atlantis from the Revell same kit... its a pretty heavy kit! The model really not quite complete yet...save a few details more.
  3. STS-86 is Atlantis last mission to MIR station in 1997 before her OMDP, decals and paint used to model the shuttle black areas. ET is mixed of various red, yellow, white, beige..colors.
  4. Here's my latest 1/144 Minicraft/Revell Atlantis as STS-86. almost nearing completion. Orbiter is Revell shuttle Awaiting the resin SSME.
  5. Here's my old Revell 1/144 Shuttle depicted as OV-102 Columbia in her final version before her accident...
  6. That's a nice review on Revell Big 1/72 shuttle....the decals are indeed an improvements to the older set. Pity Revell didn't came up with these fine decals on their earlier releases.. I could have used it on my Revell Atlantis shuttle. Cheers
  7. Here's another collection of my 1/144 very old Airfix Space Shuttle- Challenger as STS-51L..modelled as her final mission.
  8. The Shuttle has completed its decalling..and I sealed with clear coat. The weathering effect is not complete yet there are various places to apply such as the nose cone, wing leading edge and fuselage sides..so is the under belly which to replicate each tiles in various shades makes a dauting tasks ahead. I'm now working on the Landing Gear Doors. The Landing gear itself will be detailed with hydraulics lines prior installing. Once all done..I'll post it as Revell 1/72 Shuttle Atlantis just landed..with tail rudder split open and deployed as air brake.....hmmm maybe add a drag chute too?? Cheers....
  9. Thanks for the comments guys.. The model will be depict as Landing once finished..... Saw a fellow member posted his Saturn V somewhere here too...So I guess same goes for me..there seems to be no Real Space catagory..?
  10. 1/72 Shuttle by Revell...still in progress with lots of re-working and improving parts.....
  11. I've done the CE tiles with the 1/144 Shuttle Stack by Revell...but have not try on the bigger 1/72 scale yet. To tone them darker I use a wash of flat black lightly thinned. Here's the pics and link from another page in this Forum. http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=42506 Cheers.....
  12. Thanks Kevin, I'll try make more airliners...but it takes time... B747s are my favourite.
  13. Thanks Guys.... Actually this is my first airliner model I built
  14. 1/144 old Revell kit...with few modifications...
  15. Thanks...Here's a look at bottom view of the Shuttle.... the MLP is not finish yet...
