Yes I was born in Curacao with Costarican family and now living in Panama. I have made a few more latin airlines, some more in 1/200. These attached ones are all 1/200 in either metal or resin, except for the dc-9-10 and a couple of those 727's. Those are Hasegawa kits.Welcome to the forum. Some nice Latin classics there, so I am guessing you're from that region? How about customising some BAC One-Elevens, as several South and Central American airlines not done, such as VASP and LANICAView attachment 1613
Thanks! I've been following ypur CCS airport. It's amazing. Brings back memories. I have a few of those to paint in 1/400 on standby also. I'm on the lookout for more dc-9's but they're really hard to get.I was looking at your photos on Facebook the other day. Your Servivensa models look really good, I have customized two, but the nose stripes don't look as clean as yours. I also saw you have Aeropostal and Aserca, I have been working on similar projects also, but have them on hold right now. Congrats on the great job and thanks for the inspiration, I need to start the shop back up...
Loving those Avianca customs!❤️Hey everybody,
Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I collect mostly 1:400 and 1:200 along with anything interesting found along the way. I also make custom work on diecast and resin. These are a few of the 1:400 customs I've made recently.View attachment 1582View attachment 1586View attachment 1585View attachment 1584View attachment 1583
The A319, A320 and E190 are JCWings models and the ATR is a GJets ex- FedEx model.Welcome aboard, we're glad you're here! I LOVE that Avianca fleet, how did you do them?
Thanks!Your talent with those customs is seriously impressive..... I have no words other than WOW. Great job, keep it up
Sometimes just by applying force really close to the joint to avoid damage. If they don't budge I mask whatever part I don't need painted and paint around it. And if I really really need to remove it I dip the model in thinner or acetone for a few hours to remove everything attached to the metal.Even having decals, it just seems like it was tempo printed (like the factory made models). I was wondering, how do you remove the parts of the model (wings, gear...)? After seeing this I now want to make a custom for myself haha
Amazing, thanks!Sometimes just by applying force really close to the joint to avoid damage. If they don't budge I mask whatever part I don't need painted and paint around it.

What a job. Outstanding effort!The A319, A320 and E190 are JCWings models and the ATR is a GJets ex- FedEx model.
I unpaint the models down to the metal and repaint them. The decals I design and print myself.
That is absolutely stunning. What a fantastic job!The A319, A320 and E190 are JCWings models and the ATR is a GJets ex- FedEx model.
