Alan Sannazzaro Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Needing a quick bit of comic relief between big projects, I decided to take to this rather old Revell kit, and try to make something of it. I was rather impressed with the kitset. It fits well, required minimal sanding, and hardly any filler. I've used the Print scale decals, which were extremely thin, to the point I wrecked a few trying to get them in place. However the schemes on the sheet made the nervous wreck I quickly became, all worthwhile. Enjoy, Regards, Alan 37 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cngaero Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 This is an aeroplane that I know very little about, but judging from your great build, it's certainly a looker. Nice build and nice markings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booty003 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I have been on the look out for one of these for my Vietnam theme. Every time I get near to one I miss the bu88er!! Yours looks very nice indeed, I must double my efforts to snaffle one! Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vh-bob Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Lovely job on the Albatross Alan. I have had one here on the forum somewhere and one more still in the box to look forward to. I feel that there is still a need for kits of this style to meet the requirements of many modellers after all, who wants a full toilet facility in their TU-160 or all the crew stations modelled in their Shackleton, all of which disappear when the fuselage is closed up and then have these unaffordable kits dropped in a giant box that often cost more than the price of the kit to have posted. Your SA-16 shows that this is all that is needed to turn out a brilliant model, at least in this scale. Well Done, Trev. Edited December 6, 2016 by vh-bob originally done late at night. Hated it in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learstang Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) It's not any b****y flavour, it's a b****y seabird, isn't it! Nice model, by the way. Regards, Jason Edited December 8, 2016 by Learstang Albatross! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
