janneman36 Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 If I am correct you already finished this one in 2003! http://hsgalleries.com/757rl_1.htm Got that particular decalset and I am going to look if it fits the Zvezda kit.. Still a very nice build👍 cheers, Jan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abandoned Project Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Very nice. Is the base scratch built or shop bought? It looks very good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Mc Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Very nice. Obviously ex-Eastern. I have a different set of NASA decals for that kit. They obviously repainted the aircraft at a later date. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flying Colors Decals are great. I made this back in 2003. Thanks. On 8/11/2021 at 3:39 PM, binbrook87 said: Wow. Now that's something you don't see every day!

Indeed, I am looking forward to Zvezda kit, but I often thought the Minicraft kits got a bad rap. Yeah, some are not state of the art: Electra, Super Connie. Others are first rate: DC-4 and DC-8. The 757 and 727 are kind of in the middle. But I say again, who else was catering to the 1/144 market for airliners 20 years ago and at least they were not putting out the 43rd version of the Bf 109. 22 hours ago, Romeo Alpha Yankee said: Very nice! 🏆 Thanks so much. 22 hours ago, janneman36 said: If I am correct you already finished this one in 2003! http://hsgalleries.com/757rl_1.htm Got that particular decalset and I am going to look if it fits the Zvezda kit.. Still a very nice build👍 cheers, Jan Yeah, it's an old build. Go ahead, slap the FC Decals on the Zvezda kit, I'd love to see the results. (NASA of course!) 17 hours ago, Abandoned Project said: Very nice. Is the base scratch built or shop bought? It looks very good. I took a poster board and faked up a tarmac/runway setting. I use it for all my builds as I think it looks so much better than shooting a model on the dining room table, even if it is not 100% runway appropriate. And I always shoot outside since I cannot get the lighting correct inside. I use it regardless of scale or subject (see this 1/48 Phantom or 1/35 AS1 Leopard). Honestly, I have gotten as many comments about the tarmac as I have about my models. 😂 15 hours ago, Eric Mc said: Very nice. Obviously ex-Eastern. I have a different set of NASA decals for that kit. They obviously repainted the aircraft at a later date. Yep, NASA bought some old Eastern 757s and did the bare minimum, later they had a more NASA specific paint job like your decals. 12 hours ago, russ c said: Fantastic job, photo`s look like it`s the real thing!
