oooohhhh you spoiled the fun

Ray/Scotty....has the revised Hawkeye sheet got a new number???, if so, what would that be??
For the sake of completeness would it be possible to add a picture of the current Hawkeye QF A380 sheet to this thread.
Yeah, I would leave that TB sheet alone....it screams "pirate", has errors, and is certainly not a Qantas-Licenced product, (unlike Hawkeye which has a License for all Qantas Group brands and subjects).
Thanks for that info on TB decals Ray....have amended above accordingly.

Same number CDS-111 as I recall. Will add a scan when I can get to it.

Fun's still spoiled. I use acrylics

Troy for the white I would use the Tamiya fine white primer if I were you. It goes on very nicely and smoothly.With a couple of coats of One Go/Future it's awesome. It's as if it was made for airliners. According to my phone Vallejo Air 71.003 is a match for Humbrol 19 though I'd like to see both in person before I'd commit to painting. Mate if I can build an airliner, a bloke with your talent won't have a drama at all

For whites, I just use Model Masters Classic White (Gloss). Knotty is a good bloke to talk to however when it comes to getting that "perfect" white airliner finish.
Troy, if you are new to airliner-building there are some very good references available to help you through.

Ya never know......ya might get right into it. Don't forget......the most powerful warplane on this planet, with the most devastating firepower at it's disposal, is "just an airliner"!!! (Boeing E-4B, aka a Boeing 747-200 ).

You know it buddy.....F-4s may take-out Migs, but E-4s take out the countries they are based in

[hrtpaul]

Ah but when I last checked my F-4's have done more than your E-4 EVER will

[tor lives]

Do you REALLY want to see an E-4 do it's business .....don't think I wanna be a round for that.
