Minicraft Boeing 727-200 (Great Silver Fleet)

Hello all,

 

I finally got around to building...and finishing a model.

 

This is Minicraft's 1/144 Boeing 727-200. It is basically out of the box with just the wheel wells boxed in.

 

I added 2 large nails inside the fuselage to keep its nose on the ground. The decals are from the kit and worked and fit great. The finish is Bare-Metal Foil for most of the kit. Wings and details are MM paints and Alclad dull aluminum and aluminum. The nose was painted with Vallejo Game Colors "Stormy Blue" which matched the dark blue on the decals really well. I haven't built an airliner in ages but I may keep that option open again.

 

All comments welcome. Thanks for looking.

 

Bill

Hi, Bill,

 

Way to go! Eastern would have been proud to put such a beautiful bird into service. Looking forward to more. I can't wait to see it at the meeting Friday night.
