TheBananaMakers Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 Hi and welcome, great job on the 772. What you got next on the go? Thanks very much! Just applying decals onto a 1:72 scale Hawk (going to do 9 of them including a 1:72 Concorde and hang from ceiling), modifying RJ-85 by adding landing gear and changing decals from Fly Be to (maybe) Air France. Will be a good opportunity to try and use some weathering oils to improve the finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be a good opportunity to try and use some weathering oils to improve the finish. Welcome, nice job on the 772! Great minds think alike! I am also going to do something similar with Hawks and a Concorde. Got as far as separating the parts for the 9 Hawk kits from sprues and spraying the fuselage pieces red. The Hawks sit in their boxes waiting for my attention again. Then it will be time to have a go at the Airfix Concorde 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't even thought about starting the other 8 yet - it must get very repetitive but I will definitely be coming to you for tips/advice!

Kev1n Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Outrageous thing to say Cuprar is an outrageous person - as you will find if you meet him Nice 777; leaving aside the kit's issues, you did a good job with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBananaMakers Posted August 8, 2013 Author Share Posted August 8, 2013 (edited) Cuprar is an outrageous person - as you will find if you meet him Nice 777; leaving aside the kit's issues, you did a good job with it. Thank you, yes the kit could have been a lot better. With more experience I should be able to add more detail etc... nice work Thanks!
