Default TWA models

Pictured ....Big Bird 742 N310TW released in 2005, AC B707-300 N771TW released in 2002, GJ L1011-1/100 N31033 released 1999 and GB DC9-40 N934L released 2007. The models are parked at TWA T-5 located at JFK. I plan to display this one in a model diorama show here on Long Island next weekend. The show has been around for a couple of years but it is mostly military armor and figures. A friend of mine who attends every year thought an airliner display would be unique and 1/400 would be a first, so I will give it a whirl. I'm a little hesitant, these armor guys are master builders, I not quite sure how this will fit in. Any how I thought this might be a little boost for the hobby. One problem, the ramp I made for this measures 2/1/2 ft X 3 1/2 FT, I have to build a new ramp and get it down to 2'X2'.
