They better wait till this livery is completed with the red Eintracht logo.

Or is it really just because people expect them to be all the same "Boeing grey" and manufacturers are afraid of that collectors could pass on a new release just because of that (realistic!) color inconsistency?

It comes 100% as expected: the usual "one standard grey fits all" for everything engine/pylon/wing/stabs...:cautious: For nitpicking I'd need to see some better images first, but from those on NG's site I'd say the mould looks better than I previousely expected. Can't comment on the accuracy of...

Funny that once a manufacturer (JC) tries to correctly replicate 747 wing color pattern it gets slammed for color inconsistency. I wont comment on the exact hue of JC's wing grey as this is HARD to ever display right in pics (I have an actual paint sample to play with in front of the cam) But if...

"Taste and More" is a Lufthansa Group sub and I sense some connection given the recent launch of pre-order meals on LH or Swiss flights. Not sure why NG has it there, but never say never.

It used to be. Plenty of solar panels and stuff was recently installed partially obstructing views. The 346's picture angle is still doable though.

Just sanding the winglets off doesn't turn a -400 into a -400D though.

A little late as DHL sent my Hawaiians into a holding pattern for the weekend... I agree that NG missed the color compostion on these quite a bit - given the real thing has a bright red flower on tail with the rest being various shades of pink to purple. Great thing is, my eyes aren't used to...

Never wanted to buy a diecast Phantom - HM mainly due to their excessively overdone panel lines but then I came across an F-4F in colors of the 20th FS - a scheme I loved ever since seeing one fresh out of the paintshop prior to its ferry flight to the US - so I decided to get it. Well, what...

Sorry, no airliners... Just two of my most favourit sound machines photographed this week. The sun was shy though. Barely anything beats the rumble of a Tornado in full burners. Loved these litte Scooters ever since we were on exercise with them. Amazingly big sound for such a small aircraft...

You better not put those values into one chart then. Confusion is guaranteed, see #13

But you better compare all of them at net prices. Your UK prices incl. VAT

I think getting an individual camo 100% accurate is near impossible. Airliners are painted using precise masking (or simply foiling) so they all look the same. A camo is applied "freehand" and the painters try to work along given painting orders (standards) - more or less accurate. So each...

Completely missed this other thread, but that Delta vs. Hawaiian comparison is kind of funny. This yellowish off white would fit perfectly to a Delta model as Delta's "white" is far from a bright white.
