Hi all,
I decided to build a recolour I did a while ago. It's a recolour of a Murph's Models Lockheed Tristar 500. I had to redraw it in vector format (I use Inkscape for recolouring) and I drew the markings. This recolour was very simple but had a few errors. Aaron kindly fixed those for me, and now the model is on sale on his and on Zarkov's models.

I resized the model to about 1/200 and I will build a few RAF aircraft from the 216th Squadron.

At the moment I am building the nose.

Thanks Ronan!
I kinda rushed this build due to the lack of time, and I also rushed the new modification, which caused an alignment error....the Union Jack does not align perfectly. But never mind, at least it has been corrected now.
