Yes, 1:72 scale is correct, as this is the Aircraft in Miniature 747-300 built using our KLM decal set number 72-747-3. This LARGE beauty was built by Tom Probert.
In addition to this KLM 747 decal, we offer many other 1:72 decals for the Aircraft in Miniature and the Anigrand kits. If you see an existing set in our line that is not listed in 1:72 (or any other scale), just ask as so we can add it to the line.
Marco Coldewey strikes again with another nice build, this time using the 1:144 Revell 737-800 with the Contrails P-8 conversion and our Poseidon decal set number 737-124. Click on the photo to be linked to other photos on Marco’s site.
Nice build of the Hasegawa P-51 in 1:72 scale by Paul Janicki. Paul used the original Hasegawa kit from the 1970′s. He removed the guns and filled the empty shell chutes on the wing undersides, then filled and smoothed over the rather coarse fabric rudder and elevators. Not having any views of the cockpit, he left that to imagination and presumed it would have been made into a two seater but decided to create a ‘blanking plate behind the pilot seat and removed the head rest from that. The brown paint used was by Life-Color French Chocolat acrylic glossed this with several light coats of Johnson’s Klear (‘Future).
The cockpit is a bit hypothetical, but without details of the many two-seat P-51 conversions, the area was a bit of guesswork. Can anyone supply any good details and/or photos of a two-seat Mustang conversion?
