Another obsure civil Boeing with a military attitude

[tor lives]

And I have found another obscure Boeing I want to put on the "to do" list.
She is the Boeing-owned B720 Anti Submarine Warfare (ASW) test bed aircraft.
She was developed primarily to try and sell a 707-based maritime surveillance platform to the Canadians, (that didn't happen.... with the CAF eventaually buying the P-3 Orion-based Aurora) .
Here is what she looks like:








I have approached Pointer dog 7 to see if he will do a custom decal set to fit the Roden 1:144 B720 kit. If he won't do them, I will see if Ray at 26 Decals will.

Rays to do list. Still longer than the defect list on an Airbus

Looks perfect Wal.....and that's probably a good thing cause 26 Decals have just said no to my request, (still waiting to see if Pointer Dog 7 is willing to do anything).
Now.....what do ya reckon about these two:

Boeing text and titles easy peasy..
tanker transport stripes trickier.
Hard part is cheat lines with windows and hatch outlines. What kit are you going to use to model these aircraft? I can do them all IF:
- you send me an example kit that I can use for measurement and test fitting (it doesnt have to be a kit, if you have a trashed fuselage that would also do)
it will be made easier IF:
you can send me a decal sheet with a cheat line incorporating windows and hatch outlines for the kit you intend to use

that way I can scan it, measure it and create a new cheatline in colours to suit the model...(a high quality scan would suffice but put a ruler in the scan so I can accurately gauge dimensions)
also the more reference material you can provide the better.. I dont want to do the reference searches it is just too time consuming

cheers

ps I just read you are going to use the roden 720 kit.. is that for all three tanker / tanker transport / asw? if you are using a 707 kit as well I'll need both fuselages.. I dont build 1/144 and have nothing suitable in the stash
