Jeddahbill Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 (edited) Greetings! Vintage Airfix kit of the Pan Am space clipper from 2001: A Space Odyssey finished in a speculative Princess Cruise Lines scheme as Clipper Crown Princess. A few minor changes to the kit along with added landing gear from the spares bin. Decals from an old Mircroscale special print run and various spares. A few other scratch built modifications and enhancements. Simple paint scheme and some subtle weathering. No panel shading. I wanted to do something different from the typical Pan Am scheme and avoid the complicated panel shading. Straight from the box, the kit has several problems, but can be made into a nice build with some effort. No attempt was made to scratch build wheel wells into the bottom fuselage and wings which are not seen when the model is displayed. Many thanks for having a look, questions and comments always welcome. Cheers, Bill Edited June 17, 2018 by Jeddahbill 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gimme Shelter Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 quite superb. To look at its sort of a concorde with a bit of TU144 then spaced up for blast off. brilliant fresh clean modelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
