Kevin Futter Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I originally built this model some time in the early '90s, after just getting back into the hobby from a long layoff. In 2007, I decided to rebuild it rather than toss it out, and can actually present before and after photos! Here it is as originally built and painted, prior to being disassembled for the rebuild (apologies for the crappy photo): And after several months' work, which featured lots of scratchbuilding and a complete rescribe, here's the renovated result: Needless to say, all the markings, save for the tail number and a few stencils, were painted on using hand-cut masks (this was long before consumer-level craft cutters had become commonplace). Still one of my most enjoyable builds! Kev 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice transformation Kevin. Fine effort!. 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still one of my favourite models, even though it lacks in several areas. I struggle to do work this good even now! Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeC Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 What a contrast between the two incarnations. Great work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
