I fought hard for you on ebay but sadly must now say "Farewell my friend." it pains me to have to do this but you were flawed from the beginning.. may you rest in peace. in your place hopefully one day a beautiful new bird will take flight!!!

scraping off the flawed decals. i hope seeing this doesnt hurt you guys too much!

Man, you should make your own Boeing Everett plant, seeing all the engines scattered there. Make some scaffoldings or jigs when you takes shots like these. :-) Just adding a detail to your photos, thats all

What will you do to that 777?

Your 9V-SQA has flawed decals too. Does this mean that it will also end up like this JD model? Anyway, what's up next for this frame?

Hopefully with your airbrush in hand (this thread or another thread), the QR Boeing 777-300ER should be pushing back out of that EVERGREEN hangar anytime soon!

What will you do to that 777?
I had every one of my Risesoon models re-done with rotating engines or if not available had them painted up to look like the real deal...The overhaul facility that did all the modification work wishes to remain annonomous. However, all leftover engines that were exchanged out were donated to Mr. Kai!

Can't wait to see that Mozart Austrian! I also have two questions:
#1:Where do you get all of the decals Kai?
#2: Where can I get a 777-300ER kit(If there are any) cuz I wanna do a Jet Airways really bad.
Good Luck on the plane Kai!

1. PM me if you want the dudes email. im not gonna publically post it because of phishers and email bots that search for their next victim for spam
2. no -300ER kit. ur gonna need to think creatively for this one. like buy a hasegawa -300 kit and get a pair of risesoon wings or make your own winglets and stick them on the hasegawa wings. model kits are great because you can mod anything you want, screw up and still be able to cover your butt.
