Alan P Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Glad it's finished (more or less, not interested anymore!). Terrible kit, awful decals, only the paint was half-decent (although the white resolutely refused to dry in the current humid/cold climate.) Hoping for a better kit to surface one day, or maybe I'll scratchbuild my own in 1/72. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stringbag Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Looks as though you have made a good job out of a very poor kit there. Have you thought about the Welsh Models vac-form kit? It is far superior to the Minicraft offering but it is expensive in comparison. I can post some pictures of the kit if you wish. Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan P Posted November 6, 2009 Author Share Posted November 6, 2009 minicrap...okdecals?? Xtradecal, but the red decals fell apart into fragments so i had to coat the whole lot in Microscale decal liquid. The England and tail codes were home-made on my inkjet printer.

keefr22 Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Well I think it looks GREAT !!!! And me!! Really good work on the front end - it actually looks like a 777 now rather than Minicrafts 'interpretation' of it! Very nice build! Keef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvard Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Hmmm...looks just like a 777 to me!! AWESOME job!!! I really LOVE Boeing jets and it looks just right to me.
