Thanks to Steve "sjsquirrel" for his excellent recoloring tutorial, and to several others who gave me tips and advice in that thread.

These 1/300 are amazing in the way they catch the essence of the actual aircraft. I have no trouble at all in telling the 727 from the Trident, or the 880 from the 707. Thanks, Bruno!


Best regards,
Kurt

Those are amazing (first?) recolors!
Very nicely done!

I agree with Croden.
And the 727 looks much better with the improved nose from the 737.

Well done, Kurt, and you are welcome

I love all these liveries but was just wondering if we might ever see some of the Airbus A380's?

I'm interested now!!

Thank you, I was pretty pleased to see the nose sections are identical in length between the two aircraft (727 and 737 models), so it wasn't too hard to swap them out.
Best regards,

Today it's really Concorde day! Bruno has added a lot of what-if liveries, while I was drawing some really ones :-D and before a minute I added two of them.
First is British Airways. Bruno some times ago draw a last livery called Chatham Dockyard Livery (used in 1998 - 2003), while i added livery called Union Jack, used as first in years 1976 - 1984. (last livery called Landor Livery and used in 1985 - 1997 is about 75% ready .... but today I've got no power to continue :-D )
My second gift for today is hybrid Singapore Airlines - British Airways livery, used for about 3 flights in 1979.

And, of course, there is landing gear added.
And I've added separate pilot's front window and visor cover, for those who wants to make nose down.... but these parts aren't tested....use them with all risks :-D

Hope you'd like it. The last livery will be ready tomorrow.

Now I know why you've not been using your sky backdrop lately Bruno ... You've buried it in planes. I used to stack planes on mine too, but it got too full ... So I now use a box with a fold-flat backdrop attached to the side.

Keep on snippin' ... Johnny.

This is not the greatest build ever, but it is at least some pictures of a build on the 1:300 P-51 "Challenge." If I did it again (and I'm not sure I want to), I would of course do a couple of things better. As it stands, it is impressively tiny. I've been wanting to build a miniature model, and for a first attempt at working in teensy-weensy scale I'm reasonably happy with it. Thanks, Bruno, for designing it and making it available!

Pretty good for first attempt into braille scale
Anne. There is no turning back now! Welcome to the dark side...
