All done!



1/144 ATR-72, American Eagle. Kit by F-RSIN, decals by Nazca. Finished with Rustoleum appliance epoxy then some Krylon gloss clear. OOB aside from the aftermarket decals. No mods of any sort.

This is only the third airliner I've ever made and I've only been doing them for a year now so It could be better but I'm very happy with how it turned out!

Congratulations on making an excellent model out of what I thought was a difficult kit. It looks lovely and sits nicely alongside your other two airliners. I'm looking forward to seeing more join your fleet.

Thank you! Most difficult model I've ever done, for sure, but a labor of love. I can definitely say it was worth it.

Thanks! At some point I will build this thing's replacement, the CRJ-700. BPK even makes it in the AE livery right out of the box. Nothing can top the ATR-72, though! I spent so many years as a kid staring up at them as they flew over.
