Hi again guys

OK, this is my last airliner for a while - I promise.
It's  the new Zvezda kit and I must say, for an airliner kit, it goes together like a dream. Well, except for those silly little intakes on the bottom. Who ever thought that they should be a separate piece needs to rethink his specs as they just do not fit in any way.























OK, that's probably more than enough pictures but thanks for looking

How about a pic of the 'silly little intakes on the bottom'?
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards
Kit

It doesn't have to be your last one for awhile ! Love seeing these. I'd really like to see a few build pics to see how you get these looking so good...especially the landing gear details !

I'm doing one last build as such right now but it's not like a "last build ever" sort of thing. It's meant in so far as I am a bit bored with just making and adding detail to existing models so I have bitten my proverbial bullet and am going to undertake my first ever kit-bash/scratch build.
As for the 777, here is a WIP link: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235005743-anz-zvezda-777/

thanks again

I assume this is Real World. Isn't it?

Top notch modeling anyway.
Will die without understanding this world.

No - it's not quite real world. The tail section on the real deal is black and they don't have those "Pacific Waves" on the front fuselage
Although I think they should be added to the real item - they look great!
