CW4 Erick Swanberg Posted March 10, 2008 Author Share Posted March 10, 2008 Sorry for the delay, I have been moved to the Night Vision Goggle training platoon, so about the only thing I have done is glue the fuselage together and get it ready for seam filling. I am hoping to get some more work on it this week and will get the photos on the board. My plan is to have it rady for the IPMS show in Anniston in April but I dont know Erick Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lenny Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Hey Erick how is the 727 coming. I'm dying for some new pictures. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CW4 Erick Swanberg Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 Still havent been able to get alot done cause of the shift that I am on. All I have done is rescribe the fuselage panel lines after seam filling and that is about it. Hopefully I can get some more work done soon. Erick Hey Erick how is the 727 coming. I'm dying for some new pictures. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
F106A Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Hey Chief, Sorry I missed most of this but I've developed an interest lately in 727s for some reason and was just wondering how the project went. Sort of dropped off the SKE scope* back in April. Many thanks, Mark *SKE scope = Station Keeping Equipment, a C-130 formation system!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BMH Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 I read the post where you said you "found 3 figures for the flight crew." Where did you find them? In Hasegawa's set? I'd like to do the same for a Heller 707 and a Minicraft Stratoliner and those guys really look the part. Great work all around--will be watching your progress.

I.Illes Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Dude, that's some mighty fine scratchbuilding you've done here! Keep posting the pictures! István Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CW4 Erick Swanberg Posted December 15, 2008 Author Share Posted December 15, 2008 Yes I modified some of them a little, still pluggin away on this one it has taken a back burner on some newer builds but I will get this finished soon.

Erick Gracias! Hard to find crew figs that can pass as civilians with no helmets/O2 masks--Hasegawa it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lgl007 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 WOW this project is starting to look so real it's sacry :-) Man, I can't wait to see it finished... I really hope you will be able to see the crew through the windows when the clear plastic goes in... would be a shame to miss all the details inside. -Greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rato_Marczak Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Hey Erick, You dio brings me fond memories. I made something similar years ago, one of my first projects after I returned to the hobby. Just slightly smaller, this is my 727 dio in 1/280 scale. Kit from Revell, truck from GHQ, the rest is scratchbuilt: I wish I had your skills... Congrats, excellent work. Rato Marczak www.ratomodeling.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Trojan Thunder Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 no updates or pix of finished model? I suspect it is nowhere near finished! ....right Erick? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CW4 Erick Swanberg Posted October 21, 2011 Author Share Posted October 21, 2011 Yeah kinda lost interest on this one, I still have the kit and the idea is there but will finish it at a later date. I am waiting on the Welshmodels 1/72 Electra to come out here soon, then everything stops. Erick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
