Looking good so far. It's really ncie to see some custom work, especially in Pre-Delivery scheme.

Will you use decal or paint for the bigfoot ?

Looking great on the first attempt! Will you also change the MSN no. to "014"? That's a DW donor model, right?

It came with the donor model:

Model Details for Dragon Wings 1:400 Airbus Industries A380-841 - Wings900 ID# 10756

So much for the devious thoughts...

'QFA388' (Tim) made a correction on his EK A380 2-3 months ago but the pics he posted are gone from the thread, so I'm not even going to bother to post the link.

True,
I ran out of storage room on the site for pics so had to cull some.
Here it is and is just simple grey decal film cut to shape.

Same treatment I will be doing to this model also and my QF version and my Etihad version.

Tim, do you reckon that MSN014 will be painted with the "big foot" roo later on, before delivery? If so, would your model show the old or new roo? Excellent work - keep it up!
