Very nice! Could you please share more photos of your collection? I'd love to see them!
Thanks for the appreciation. I am preparing my showcase for some interesting and most loved models. Tu-154 Is one of them, but also some airlines from USA.
Apologize, 1:500 model in 1:400 forum.
I will post the sister in 1:400 scale!

I really like your collection criteria: A bundle of not just ordinary, but also obscure holiday-package airlines with interesting liveries. I actually miss those days when you could see a Balkan Tu-154 next to a BMI Baby 737 and a First Choice 757 in the background.
I also saw a lot of Enter Air & Jet2 737's landing in Dubrovnik when I was on vacation back in 2014!
Thank you for reminding me of that with your collection!

Herpa 1:400, mainly plastic, simply but beautiful: Euralair B737-800 "Frog tail" from France. Beauty of and old era of charter/leisure airlines.
The two Ural Airlines Tu-154 compared. Herpa nose section is not the best, Aeroclassics nose section is not the best too but, compared, better than Herpa one.
Maybe Herpa blue of the tail fin Is closer to the original airplane. But Is Is also and always a "sunlight matter".

Wonderful comparison. Herpa indeed messed up in the front section but the Aeroclassics Tu-154 is also very weak. The landing gears are terrible... that nose gear is way too long. Both models have seamlines at the tail section but the AC is worse, since it also have seams from the horizontal stabs fitment.
by the way, what a nice looking bird. Ural had a great livery too.
And then Pulkovo Tu-154 is a great miss in 1:500 scale!
It's a wonderful model! I have an old Gemini L-1011 in this same ATA livery. A decent model when considering the age, but nowhere as good as NG quality.

I have both of those models..I really would like to see NG make an L-1011-50 in this scheme also, then maybe I can replace my Gemini.
