At last the model is finished and hanging together with the dc-9. The next model to build will be a Transavia Caravelle, another often visitor of my local airport in the beginning of the seventies. Will be also in 1/33 scale and i will start the model in some months.

I suppose that Austrian is a DC-9 or a MD-80.

I will add to the compliments...
Absolutely amazing models. They look literally like a real airplane that has been shrunk. In fact they look more real than the real thing. Jesus, what is your history as a model maker? Has it all been as a hobby? Have you ever had any kind of "training" or do you just have alot of experience? Because these models are seriously real museum pieces, and I would love to be able to create such models myself one day. Please, let me in on what I need to know in order to get on the path of becoming a master modeler such as yourself. |

To mike:
Modelling that kind of planes is only a matter of patience and perseverance. Of course, some kind of skill is necessary but with the two things above and time any target can be reached. I´m starting the building of a boeing 707 in the same scale and i have drawn some plans and stencils. If you want to know some tips or learn about the construction of those airliner models send me an email. To Boeing SST: Yes, the Douglas dc-8 is one of my favorite classic planes. A Spantax or may be a Scannair one is on my mind for the next future. I´m now with the BEA Airtours 707-400, next model will be a Transavia Caravelle and next the dc-8. (but remenber we are talking about some years...) |

Hi everybody, i´m always here! but not too much time to build or post in the past months. Anyway, i continue with my projects on the desk and i´m now designing some classic british airliners in the big 1/33 scale as always. I post some pics of the latest projects. Those are only printed beta parts and not painted as the final plane, most of them in black and white or not matching the exact BEA blue but could also serve as lovely quick cardmodels to print and build. I will post images when start the making of any final model.

remind us what your medium is? Paper or plastic? (I sound like the bag boy at the grocery store!)

And after looking at these pictures I'am asking myself if I was dreaming about working around all the PSA 727's. These models are absolutely beautiful. My hats off to a great artisan with quite a bit of skill.
Thanks for sharing your pictures as well as your models with us. WR |

Hats down! once again. I would love to see a Malev Tu-154 or Tu-134 in that size. Maybe one day I will try?
