Air New Zealand (1973) from Hawkeye

Fellas, I just got this finished and am happy with the test fitting, so will get the files to Peter shortly.

Excuse the grubby fuselages in the photos, but I was more concerned with getting the decals to actually fit the intended kits...

Looks really good Scotty, now I have to get me a DC-8.. Well done, good work as usual. :D
It's hard for me to get used to these changing times... I remember when the air was clean and the sex was dirty..

Oh, nice decals!

Tell me, are you capable of producing LARGE (1:50 scale) decals for a particular Qantas B707?
I have a model I am refurbishing & I'm waiting on decals to arrive from a contact Knotty put me in touch with, but the guy is SO busy it will take months for him to start.

Salty,

I can do the patterns, Peter would print the final decals (as a commission job). The problem is getting a 1/50 707 to me (Queanbeyan) for test fitting, coz I don't have any spare lying around ! :P

Hmm...
I will ruminate on it.
It's not that far from Sydney...but I'll look mighty funny with a 1/50 B707 strapped to my motorcycle.
:D

Modify you helmet with a roof rack, and you'll be able to fly it down :lol:
Pretending to do it TAC style with the big boys since 1987
Also, we don't need no steenkin' VLATs!

Getting back on topic, I got the files to Peter on Thursday night, and he was pleased when he saw the final test-fits. So he may have some ready at Expo next month, (but don't quote me ;) )...

Cheers!
