This one only took 6 yrs. Revell C-54 to Argonaut Conversion

This one gave me as much trouble as my earlier DC-7C. I like this one less, I just wanted it over and cant be bothered doing any more on it, that said it looks ok from a metre. Not a fan of the Revell kit, for me it was over-engineered and far too many tiny pieces, but for real modellers with perfect eyesight and a surgeons touch I guess it is a beauty.

I used the AIM decals but the side stripe cracked up on me so I had to print my own. ( I used some of the AIM decals which were fine after I sprayed them with an acrylic clear coat)

I dont know if these 2 ever shared the tarmac together, but they do share the same shelf in the display cabinet.. (the Viscount built some years ago with home made decals)
