  1. Finally I managed to finish a model - also finished it in under a month!!!

    Revell kit, out of the box. No added bits, just a straight forward build. I stumbled across a framed photo/painting - call it what you prefer, and though that would go well in my room. One day, I stumbled over this kit, and lobbed it in my room, along with the picture. And it was here, that I noticed that the painting I had bought, was in fact the boxart of the kit I had just bought! So it was a pretty easy decision, to choose what plane it should be built as. So, here goes:

    Revell 1/48 Spitfire Mk IXc, No. 43 Squadron RAF, Klagenfurt, Austria June 1945

    Hi Nils!

    I'm currently doing the ones in Norwegians current fleet.

    I am, however, considering to do all of them,

    • Fokker 50
    • MD82
    • MD83
    • 737-400
    • 737-500

    I have had a small chat with Ruben from lndecals about this project, since he is the one I get my decals from, and lives basically ten minutes up the road :)

  3. very nice pair, Robin, well done. i have to say, i was never tempted to build civilian aircrafts. i always thought its too clean and boring - now i have to say sorry to all who are building the civilian aircrafts, bcs during last week there were so many awesome built civilians like this one, i simply couldnt be more wrong with my thoughts.. :sorry: i m even tempted to build some too haha :lol:

    Heard it from many people! So you are not the only one! They may seem boring and simple to build, but there are certainly some other challenges that you have to tackle while doing civilian planes! And if you like, you can weather them as well! Nothing is correct, and nothing is wrong. It's all up to you :) It's your model!

    Give it a go, but google the kit for mistakes, like the Revell one. There is in fact, a pinned topic in here in the civil planes section, where you can get info about correcting that particular kit :)

    Give it a go some day, it's good fun! They are simple, and actually makes me feel like I get something done once in a while, compared to big mili jets/fighters with hundreds of parts :)

  4. Nicely done, not a bad looking plane really. I would like to do a 777 as I'm in love with the size of those huge GE engines, but I'm also afraid of the size of a 1:144 one and where it could go!

    There is always the oppourtunity to get the Hasegawa 1:200 one :)

  5. Hi modellers!

    I just finished my first build of the year!

    Minicrafts 737-400, converted to a -300.

    Decals from lndecals.com, and I used a cheap rattle can for the white, and Humbrol 19 for the red nose.

    My two Norwegian aircraft together. Only need to do one more type, before I have a complete fleet of Norwegian types! But who knows, it might be on the forum soon :P

  6. Thanks alot guys!

    I certainly like it as well, I like the T7 too! But love the 787.

    Getting into the Airbus series slowly, but I made my first step into the Airbus world by installing Aerosoft's Airbus X for my flightsim. So now I can fly the A320/A321 + 737-600/700/800/900. FMC programming and so on. Also startet a few A320 sets, one to be OY-RCG, one to be one of Lufthansas Sharkletted A320's and one to be BA A320.

    Thanks alot again! :)

    Here is my latest finished plane. Richard Warcup decals, and a little bit of scratch building (antennas)

    Enjoy!
