Matcham11 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 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. Minicraft 737-300 LN-KKR Norwegian by Matcham11, on Flickr Minicraft 737-300 LN-KKR Norwegian by Matcham11, on Flickr Minicraft 737-300 LN-KKR Norwegian by Matcham11, on Flickr Minicraft 737-300 LN-KKR Norwegian by Matcham11, on Flickr 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 Minicraft + Revell Norwegian 737's by Matcham11, on Flickr Thanks Robin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matcham11 Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 Is that Revell's 800 with corrected winglets? Cheers John, yup, sure is! And I corrected the engines as well, not spot on, but good enough for me Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeW Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 A snappy pair there indeed. Humbrol 19 for the nose - dumb question - brush painted then? Awesome work if so. Nice going. Cheers, Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolwe82 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) 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.. i m even tempted to build some too haha Edited January 28, 2014 by Wolwe82 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave N Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Very nice looking builds there-I bet they brighten up the room! ...and ditto what others have said-they do have a certain attraction these civvy birds... Thanks for sharing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matcham11 Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 You mean the MD-80 ? Nils 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 Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daryl_five_zero Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Cracking build, there! I got to see a load of the Norwegian fleet lined up at Torp lufthavn on my way back to Blighty last night. I'm not big into civvie planes but I'm tempted to give a Norwegian bird a try (no pun intended.) Are you going to start on the Widerøe fleet once you've finished with Norwegian?Daryl.
