Tim R-T-C Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 No story behind this vignette! I just fancied making a small airliner, the Eastern Express An28 kit was available at a good price and the Unarmed GB was nigh. It needed quite a bit of work to get everything looking right and I think it is sitting too high on its wheels, but at least the decals were good. Accessorised with the Eastern Express airstairs (with lots of Vallejo weathering paints) and a repainted N Gauge container alongside some Presier figures. Finally a use for all the figures carrying bags. I've since picked up another An28 and An14 for a larger scene including one of the fascinating wooden airport buildings that you find out there. The WIP story with tales of the plane taking flight (twice) and the filler needed! 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skodadriver Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Excellent! Anybody who can make a good model from an Eastern Express kit has my respect. Love the weathering on the steps and the container. Dave G 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAT69 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 The airplane is very nice; the air stairs look very real, rust and all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheyJammedKenny! Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Excellent vignette! This is really the thing and captures everything just so... One of the passengers is arriving a tad late, with unsmiling dispatchers muttering: "come on, come on..." Cue "Volga Boatsman's Song." LOL. What's the inscription on the container say? Something ironic? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
