One of the well-known idiosyncrasies of this particular kit.

More sanding, more gluing. Hey it looks like a plane now.

Interesting flow lines above the windows.

Could almost use them as a guide for a "Tiger" scheme!

Oh I still haven't got any decals, but it's a fair way from needing them at the moment.

Nice progress Brad, I have started on mine as well.

Been a bit slack with updating anything at the moment. I have 3 737s on the bench at the moment, one being the ACAM Challenge build. I am yet to decide on a scheme for mine.

I am no longer doing the RTAF jet Ray, if that helps. I am now doing a TAME 732 instead.

Thanks Gents,

Both good ideas, I was actually thinking about the Ansett scheme Rob, thought the Thai Air Force one seems more tempting.

I have the fuselage together with appropriate nose weight added and the wings together. Hope to start a thread this evening.

Oops just looked at the other Thread and looks like that one is already being done :

What about going the other way time wise but staying WIF and putting it in the Starmark scheme?
