Sebastijan Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) I will have to check later this week, when I visit parents where most of my stash is. Good luck with the stencils, you'll need it :D Edited May 23, 2011 by Sebastijan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vivkulan Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Excellent Excellent build . This beast is in my wish list. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
streetstream Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 (edited) Very nice so far. I have the same kit in my stash and it is my plan too build the exact same livery that you are building. This being said, i already noticed a fault with the decals regarding this livery. The decal of the russian flag on the tail is undersized. It should be about 30% larger, thats why i decided to paint that flag because it doesn't seem all that hard to do. But once more, very nice build. BTW, the tail decal is well suited for placement on 'normal' style russian airforce tails of an 124's. I have a picture of the 2 version parked together that shows the sized difference pretty well. http://www.airliners.net/photo/Aeroflot/Antonov-An-124-100-Ruslan/1110605/&sid=50ef6bb37d4d4166de262597043c8ab6 Edited July 16, 2011 by streetstream Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johann S Bach Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Mario, Great amazing job! I've just found your thread. I have the same kit waiting to be built & looking at yours, it brings to me a crumb of confidence to me to tackle the project. Which is really scary, is the size, the stencils, & what I had not ever done right... white paint!! - you know? I've been looking for a camouflaged version of the same airplane in order to avoid such task! It seems that I have a problem with that color!! Right now I am moving to another home; next week I will be unpacking, & the question for these days is the best one... what project is next??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
