America West version is done. All remaining aircraft now have landing gear. One more paint scheme to finish, and still need to make up stands for all the aircraft. Next fleet project will be the Embraer 145.

Here's the latest out of the paint shop. The "John Deere" paint scheme with a nice cream colored top. I think I will do two more paint schemes to give an even dozen of the little CRJ's

Awesome collection, Knife! I was very plesaed to build the one from British Airways, and I bet you had lots of fun building all of these.

Now question:
  1. Can you please share your technique to make the models so shiny? If you can, please upload a photo of how you do it.
  2. Where can I get the runway patters that you used?
Thank you!

No Murph, Beeches are on the way. I want to build up a full size model of each to make sure the markings scale up properly. I've only built the scaled down models (1/72 scale) and small scales can hide many errors that are magnified when enlarged. Plus, been busy with these CRJ repaints and work. I will try to get the final versions to you by the time your ATR 72 is ready (hint hint).

For Milenio3, the shiny finish is two or three layers of Krylon triple-thick crystal clear glaze, found in the spray paint section of Walmart. Just don't spay it during damp weather because it will fog. Shouldn't be too much of a problem in San Antonio.

The bases are screen captures from Google Earth of various airport aprons. I print the images out on a 5 x 5 grid of letter size cardstock.

By the way, I like your homepage. For others, check it out here: PaperJerry Modelismo a Escala en Papel

Sure would be nice if you and Sumato could work out a way for these to be offered on his site (or eCardmodels.)

Yep, just waiting for Sumato to get back from his modeling break. They are his for the asking.

And here are the final paint schemes. Still need to finish up the engines and landing gears. I will post a group photo once I get these two finished up. I think I can now officially build CRJ 200 models in my sleep.

I'm now finishing the designs on the EMB 145, with a little Fokker in the sidelines. EMB 145 will be done in four different paint schemes, US Airways Express, United Express, Delta Connection, and "Casper".

Has anybody noticed the hidden trend in this thread?
