Zvezda 787-8 United Airlines

Post by jelliott »

This was my first ever "completed" build of a civil airliner. I had attempted a few others prior to this in my earlier modeling days and they never got finished. I was extremely pleased with the overall fit of this kit. I only had to use putty in a couple of areas on the belly. I also used putty to fill in the windows in the cabin area and the cockpit. I used the decal set from 26decals.com. The paints used were Krylon white primer, Tamiya TS-26 Pure White, Model Master FS16440 Gloss Gull Grey, and Alclad Polished Aluminum. The cabin and cockpit windows were filled with Deluxe Perfect Plastic Putty and replaced with window decals. Enjoy!
