busnproplinerfan Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Decals look a bit yellowed, maybe bake them in the sun for a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandboof Posted December 26, 2019 Author Share Posted December 26, 2019 Hi All A couple of hours in and there is a basic airframe. Decals are baking .

Grandboof Posted December 27, 2019 Author Share Posted December 27, 2019 Hi All Well its no longer a white tail . The decals are showing their age but I do have a donor sheet from the Peach Airlines boxing for the generics ( windows , exits etc) so will only have to battle the specific Ansett bits . Coffee kicking in off to do more . Thanks for looking in Martin H 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Poultney Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Looking very nice indeed. Not convinced by the nose shape on the kit though, but looking good nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Poultney Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Just now, Grandboof said: Yes it does look a little Boeingish could be the window decal Martin H Could be but I was thinking that before I saw the picture with the decal on. It's 1/200 scale anyway so close enough is good enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Thanks Cliff 3 hours to go Decals are on ( gave on the small ones as just about everything on the kit sheet wanted to crumble) . Most of what is there came from spare sheets U/c is painted ready to go on as as the seal coat is dry . Martin H 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
