Gemini Jets October Releases

I hope the United isn't a tailsitter. The 500 mould has that tendency, but it's one I want to pickup too.

What do we think about the battleship grey tone? Looks very light again... Ugh that might be a dealbreaker actually

It definitely is a tail sitter - pretty clear in their photo as well - like all their 735s unfortunately - that itself is a primary dealbreaker for me - and yes, the grey does appear too light

The 500s have quite a tall nose gear. That needs to be shortened, and perhaps plastic horizontal stabilizers might help? I know JC does this with the 739.

As for the color it’s definitely light, similar to the Air Wisconsin CRJ-200 they did almost nine years ago. I personally don’t mind it, seeing as I might need to pick this up for my dormant Retro FSD project.

Yeesh, I was excited till I saw the color. Very light indeed. I assume some is from whatever photo editing they did but it’s definitely way too light compared to the real thing…

The northwest color is a pleasant surprise though! It’s much closer to the real thing than I thought it would be by a mile.

Maybe overexposure in the release photo? I don't trust manufacture photos for livery accuracy because they tend to explode the saturation
 
On the topic of Battleship, do you guys think this color is accurate enough? I kind of want a 200 scale 777 in this livery. It's the IF. Maybe it is a bit too blue? I'd consider the JC version but the nose gear... 2nd pic is the IF200 1762670195140.png1762669805245.png
