After 5 years trying to get back into my old account, I just made a new one (any admins here can help me with that?).

Anyways, I've only built like 2 models over 6 years and here's one of them. 1/200 is still my favorite scale and the 747 kit is still my favorite model to build.

Kit is the Air France 747 1/200 Hasegawa boxing from 1987, Singapore 747 "California Here We Come" This same airframe is (somewhat) preserved at the Evergreen museum in Oregon and I was able to go check it out in detail a few years ago. Decals are Classic Airlines and DRAW decal corroguards.

My models are always for sale but I don't advertise them *wink wink*

Hey lovely build there! just a bit strange there are no landing lights or details for them in the main wings, even being a plastic modelkit you did a fantastic job of making look like a diecast metal model hah, it's really well done!


Singapore Airlines Boeing 747-212B as name would lead iif using their Boeing Customer code in the name which is 12.

What I'll do is contact Crownvic he is the admin of this place and he is doing a great job keeping this place intact and hey! welcome back man I'd say

Greetings! Great to see you back here, have missed seeing your masterpieces. This 747 is a stunner. I know it’s a minor detail, but the window blinds really add a touch of realism to these models.

Yes sir! The blue belly was the hardest paint job I've ever masked off for painting, lol. Hope they're still holding up well.

I believe that Hasegawa moulds are the best ones. The job you've done with the SIA 747 is fantastic.

Bill-ay looks like you are making a comeback after a few years yourself. Lovely model. I actually flew on a SQ 747-200 in 1988 Singapore to Sydney. You still haven't lost your touch 😃

LeFreak! Hilarious how we don't have access to our old accounts.
