From the dimensions provided, looks like it's pretty close to 1:150 scale. The nose and engine pylons look a little short. The front landing gear looks a little bigger than it should be (can't really see the main landing gears). I like the comm. antennae on the fuselage and wing probes on the wings too. The colors seem alright except for the blue background color on the tail fin, but it could be because of the lighting conditions.

agree with landing gears being too big i may display the model without them but then again it does have the reg on it which does look good i will just have to wait and see. i dont agree with the engines and pylons being short the artist had to rework them and i think now they are spot on.

the colour in the tail fin is ok nothing wrong with that.
the below is an old pic with a few mistakes and the artist did do some rework on it and sorted them out. note the 744 engines and white engines...
