ALL NG 'Future' 1:400 Release Announcements (Rednote / Instagram / website / etc)

NG needs to fix 3 things with their A330/340 mould first:

  1. Cabin window line is printed too high on the fuselage.
  2. Cockpit window printing is a bit off; the front windshield windows are too short in the front This might be due to slightly inaccurate cockpit shape on the mould. Panda has the same issue; JC / Gemini's mould is more accurate comparing to real-life pictures of the A330/A340.
  3. The wingtip mould is inaccurate, the space between the leading edge and start of the winglet is too large. JC / Gemini's mould is more accurate in this regard.
 
On JC's part - it's already been happening - suddenly they remembered they have an A343 mould 🤣

PHX that ways have been releasing A340s fairly consistently, to their merit - many of which I've picked up
Unfortunately the Phoenix mould is not without it's issues: the cockpit windows are a bit too large, but an even bigger issue is the shape of the cockpit area is too wide. Additionally, the wings on the A340-600 & 500 moulds are swept too far back.

If HX Models can fix the cockpit print (too large as well), nose shape (slightly too blunt) and nosegear height, it will be a worthy successor for the Phoenix A340-500/600 mould. The wing sweep angle is already miles above Phoenix's rendition.

UPDATE:
After receiving my HX models Etihad Airways A340-600, I the cockpit window printing is not too large (maybe slightly, it's still more accurate than the too-small NG / Panda A330/A340 cockpit printing and similar in size to the Phoenix & JC A330/340 printing). The nose gear isn't too short either; the wheel is too large, giving the impression it is too short. The only major issue is the shape of the nose: it is too blunt.

Please, we already know that you have the A342/343 mold, can you please announce the airlines company that will produce it soon?😐
Those passenger windows really need to be lowered. They have the same issue with the A330 and never change a damn thing after countless feedback

Agreed, from a top town viewing angle it doesn’t look bad but a straight on sideways shot just feels wrong with how high they are. feels like an easy fix as well…
