Looks great, Stu!
Pretending to do it TAC style with the big boys since 1987
Also, we don't need no steenkin' VLATs!

G'day knotty, no mate, they are the decals supplied with the kit. Pretty good quality I thought. SIA had a 747 done in the same livery.

That's right ,they did release the Minicraft kit in those markings . It came out really well Capt , still waiting for a 777-300 to be released . As soon as I convert one ,I know 6 months later they will bring one out . :roll: :roll:
Did you end up getting the Welsh Models one ? Was it British Airways ?

Thanks chaps,

No knotty, I didn't get the welsh job. Like you, I'll wait.

Paul, I think knotty knows of a decal guy that does the new Virgin scheme..

Nice work Stu. Gotta love the Tamiya paint bombs!

There is a 777-300 on the market by Eastern Express. Apparently a copy of the minicraft kit with fuselage extensions thrown in. The extensions are a different diameter than the fuselage so you get a wave bend through the whole length.

There is a guy in the UK that has done the Virgin 777.

Also for a Virgin 777 you need the wingtip extensions and new donks.

Like Knotty I have another 777 kit to supply the fuselage extenions and I know when I start a proper kit will be released
