    Lockheed L1011-1/200 Hasegawa

    The decals are in. It will be a little while before I paint, I have been painting the last 15 years with Tamiya rattle cans. I just bought an airbrush and compressor. There will be a learning curve before I am ready to put paint down on an actual build.

    Choosing a kit from your childhood

    This classic from the early 60s. My first Messerschmitt 109. I don't remember painting anything. I liked the dark green and shiny black plastic parts.

    Lockheed L1011-1/200 Hasegawa

    Thanks, just one slight problem I need to address, the tail is warped, might run it under hot water. I tried bending it but it has "memory" AKA residual stress I guess they call it. No matter I will straighten it.

    Lockheed L1011-1/200 Hasegawa

    Simple, not all airlines used the same window configuration. Do you not understand that some after market decals , like my Eastern Airline ones, are different?

    Lockheed L1011-1/200 Hasegawa

    Windows puttied up and sanded. I had a seam on top that had a slight step so I filled it and will sand it as soon as the putty hardens.
