L-100-20 Hercules - TAAG Angola Airlines 1/144

[zebra]

Here's my 1/144 L-100-20 Hercules in TAAG Angola Airlines colours, just finished in the Africa GB. It's the Minicraft kit with a Welsh Models vacform fuselage, resin wheels and engine intakes (can't remember which brand - maybe Brengun or Reskit), and custom decals. The build was a bit of a challenge - there are probably easier ways to get to an L-100-20 (like starting with a C-130H-30 and shortening it).

That’s a smart bit of modelling, super paint scheme and very well executed, good job!

Excellent !  

 

Been following this on the Group Build and just looking at it now makes me think that the masking job must have been a lot of fun

Great build.

I always liked the "Herk".

Looks very classy in this livery

Great Hercules in very nice civilian scheme.

Neat work and the rather exotic scheme looks really nice.

Thanks! The masking was actually not too bad, although I wasn't satisfied with some of it first time round and re-did some of it
