24th August eh? Is it a commemorative paint scheme for the 1607th anniversary of the pillaging of Rome by the Visigoths under Alaric I?

Today's the day of the big reveal, stay tuned for photo's later today

This is it, the big reveal.

as some of you might know, im getting married tomorrow

as a surprise for the guests, i built a display model to be presented next to the guest book.
ive spent over 6 months to build this and encountered many painting and decal design problems with it, but the results were worth it.
the hardest art was looking for a decent picture of me and the missus that can fit on the tail.

so, here's the (formerly secret) Boeing 747-8 "Wedding Belle"

I would like to concur with the esteemed Rattus aequanimus orientalis! Congratulations, indeed, sir!

Nils, you nearly brought a tear to an old man's eyes

Lovely and well thought.

My and Mrs MM's best wishes to you and yours for your happy day and future!

What a brilliant idea

All the best for the future. Best reveal the size of your stash now, so as not to start married life with that size of secret........

I just realised, that's the one model she can never tell Nils to get rid of without sounding a complete termagant.

NARSES2 · August 24, 2017, 06:07:48 AM

Absolutely fantastic Nils

All the very best for tomorrow
