JAT B737-300

[Uros]

Hi! New model started. This time Welsh models vacform 1/72nd scale. I'm making B737-300 in the colours of Yugoslav aerotransport. Plastic is a lot thicker and easyer to work with than Broplans. I have cut out the windows and inserted clear plastic that was then sanded to shape and polished. For the windshield I'm using BPKs plastic part. Here is what I have for now.





Thanks for looking in!

A bit of progress on this one. I got a set of flaps from Laci. These are scaled up from 1/144, I only provided a few measurements. Wings are solid resin, so a lot of cuting was required to fit them in. But considering they weren't really designed for this kit, the fit is almost perfect.



I also used wingtip parts from BPK kit. Now, I have to fill some gaps and blend it all in.
Thanks for looking in!

Wow that's really cool mate. Nice work

Thanks Paul!
After a lot of work I have this one ready for paint. Fuselage needs to be polished aluminium and I'm not looking forward painting it. Hopefully it all goes well.



Thanks for looking in!

Looks great Uros, I have just found this one and it looks like you modified the cockpit to add the jump seat. Nice mod!

Also using the BPK cockpit glazing is a great Idea, I have not been able to satisfactorily use the Welsh supplied parts, all 3 of my attempts have decal windscreens.

Thanks Ray! Yes, I added the jump seat. Figured it would be a nice addition. The bpk canopy worked really good and is almost a perfect fit.

A few steps forward and a few back, this one is painted. I had to redo the silver colour, which is ok now just not as shinny as I wanted. It's good enough.

Decals applied. Only small details need to be added and it's finished. Title letters were cut out with a plotter from white decal paper. Then I applied red letters, printed on clear paper and cut out, over that. Came out really nice.



Thanks for looking in!

Very nice, sounds like a lot of work to get the titles done but worth it in the end.

That looks amazing mate. I really like that scheme
