Graeme H Posted April 30, 2018 Author Share Posted April 30, 2018 Well starting with the decals Port Side DSCN1275 by qfa_tsv, on Flickr Starboard side DSCN1273 by qfa_tsv, on Flickr The long decal did split apart, and thought I had got it back together, but you will notice the split 6 windows back from the rearmost overwing emergency exit, couldn't get the decal to move or get any water under it no matter how hard I tried, and don't want to tear it anymore, so will fill those with a bit of paint, and no one will notice the extra bit of gap between the windows, right 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Nice work Graeme, good move leaving the one side to dry. I don't know how many times I last a decal from handling after one side was done and then progressing directly to the other. I might learn one day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme H Posted May 3, 2018 Author Share Posted May 3, 2018 Getting more stickers on, so port side now done, it broke again, bu this time while in the water made it a lot easier to deal with,I really should have selected a point to cut it, would have made the whole thing a lot easier overall. Slowly working on the Undercarriage and tailplanes, realised I hadn't painted them yet 🙄 Need the undercarriage on before I fit the engines I think DSCN1282 by qfa_tsv, on Flickr Realising that with only a couple of days to go, and going away to a model show over the weekend, I'm in dire need of an extension for this GB to get finished, @Enzo Matrix any chance? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme H Posted May 4, 2018 Author Share Posted May 4, 2018 Getting closer, but the most I can get done before I go away, still some Tailplanes, Undercarriage bits, and all the aerials etc to add, all time consuming stuff, where I got to today DSCN1295 by qfa_tsv, on Flickr DSCN1296 by qfa_tsv, on Flickr DSCN1300 by qfa_tsv, on Flickr Photos taken in natural light late in the afternoon 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zebra Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Very nice, looking forward to the finished model. One of those aircraft I keep missing in real life - more than once I’ve been about 20 seconds too late to photograph it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halcyonjet Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 As soon as I saw on the news about the Air Niugini 737 overrunning and ending up in the water, I thought about this model. Turns out to be the actual plane involved..At least the outcome wasn't as bad as it could have been. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme H Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 Yes last weeks unfortunate incident is a timely reminder to get back to this one I have almost stopped lately after a week in hospital in August with hear failure, that didn't do much for my mental state either, been slowly getting back into it hoping the change in medications is helping, start a series of test next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Leader Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I missed this build last time around Graeme, very nice PX 737. So unfortunate to see the pics of this a/c ditched in the water, however great to hear there were no casualties involved. This does look to be a nice kit and another airliner made good by you. Best of luck for the tests next week and we'll chat later. Cheers.. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also hoping to resume some modelling after an operation and complete my 737 builds. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
