JAT DC-10

[Uros]

Hi! I working on this Airfix 1/144th dc-10. It will be on a stand and built oob. I'll just rescribe some of the panel lines. Already did it on the wings.




Thanks for looking in!

The Airfix kit is quite basic compared to the more recent offerings from EE, I have one to to so I will be watching to see how you go!

[Uros]

I have the EE kit too. I agree Airfix is much more basic, but I belive it can be built into a nice looking model.

Uros,

One of the build threads on Britmodeller suggests removing those pronounced engine mounts on the wings as they make the engines hang too low to the ground.

Check the dry fit when it's on its undercarriage.

I'm building my model wheels up, but looking at photos of built models, they do look very low. I wasn't aware of that, thanks for the heads up Scotty!

[Uros]

Engine pylons sanded down and it does look much better now. Thank you Scotty.
Just a few touchups and it's ready for paint.



Thanks for looking in!
