The shapes are good but much of the surface detail is very heavy and out of scale.
The kit decals are nice and provide much of the surface detail. But the decals and the molded decals are very mismatched. As expected there are no PamAm decals, but HDA makes a set.
The center fuselage seam needs a lot of work.
The stand hole is WAY too big for this scale! As is the rectangle on the top.
I left out windows, they are way too thick for the scale.
Ready for primer.
2 coats of Tamiya white primer, 2 coats of Tamiya pure white, and a dusting of Tamiya racing white. I like the color.
Decals started, I used it’s medium brother as a guild along with the instructions. The decals are still wet in these photo’s.
Not bad for such a tiny kit! I wonder why they made it - could it be that they might do the space station to-scale with it? That would be so cool.
BTW, did anyone else notice that the interior of the space station’s docking bay bears an uncanny resemblance to the Death Star’s bay? I think Lucas took a lot of visuals from 2001 when he made Star Wars.
Yeah she looks awesome! And her bigger sister ain’t too shabby either!
Wish Pan Am were still around, I’d book a ticket on one of them. After all being 2023 the price should have come down at this point that even I could afford a ride…
