My completed Jet2 Boeing 737-800 in 1/144 Scale using the Zvezda Kit. I really like the Zvezda kits, they go together really well and the detail is excellent, the most intricate part is probably the Nose gear assembly. Fuselage was sprayed using Tamiya Silver Mica rattle can, engines, tail and winglets Revell Red. Wings and stabs Revell 371 with Revell 90 leading edges. After market decals from DrawDecal completed this Airliner perfectly. Thank you for looking and any feedback is greatly appreciated. Alistair

War, what is it good for? Asked Edwin Starr. Well apart from driving me crazy masking camo, a good supply of warbirds for excitable men to chuck around the skies in peacetime it seems. Fed up of all that futzing about with RLM this that and the other, I remembered my days in States in the 70s/80s when I was a regular visitor to the Reno Air races and recall fondly , a certain Mr Bob Hoover in a canary yellow Mustang and his wonderful catchphrase “ Gentlemen, you have a race” coming over the Tannoys . Fast forward to SMW 2015 and Greg Drawbaughs stand selling all manner of Reno Racer goodies saw me come home with the decals for the Rockwell F-51/Cavalier. It’ll be a simple conversion as the Airfix F-51 has the required uncuffed prop and bulged canopy that Cavaliers used. Have a bit of hacking to do to get a second seat in where the radio crap is but nothing a razor saw and ignorance can’t cope with. I remember flying a Cavalier in the 80s that belonged to one of our directors and remember that the interior was a nondescript grey and the modernised panel with VOR, audio selector etc. was still black, hence a Yahu P-51 panel and let’s hope no one notices the modern stuff isn’t there. Alclad grey primer looks pretty nondescript so it will be the interior colour. Paint wise, I did extensive research; well I walked to my paint cabinet and decided the Mr Color RLM 04 is close enough. Finally I’m doing another build simultaneously, a new thing for me but hopefully something that can get the 300+ plus stash down quicker... So onwards we go. Anil The Dualist.
