Model comparisons

[MSP Aviation]

Feel free to compare any models by different manufacturers or by different moulds here. I look forward to seeing them!

I will start it off with a comparison of the Eurowings Discover A330-200 by NG (left) and JC (right).

The NG's colour looks off, it looks almost red instead of purple. Nice models though.

Oof this is painful to see.
The NG is clearly superior as far as the mould goes, but looking at the colours it just ruins the whole release. If I wanted a Eurowings Discover A332 I would go with the Phoenix one if these were my options...

Like previously referenced, super frustrating see one have a great color and the other have a great mold… can’t even start on how many models we have like this…

Next up, Delta 737-900 Gemini (L) vs. NG (R)

The only thing that I don't like on the Gemini one is that the tail and stabilizers are plastic, I have N855DN.

Next up, Delta 737-900 Gemini (L) vs. NG (R)

I like the NG better. Very nice nose profile and seems like sharper printing too.

Here is one comparison that I have done:

KLM/Viasa PH-BUG Aeroclassics vs. Phoenix:

Phoenix left, AC right:





Here you can find the full review/compare plus a historical anecdote. This comparison had a lot of pictures since both sides have different liveries so I chose the three most relevant pictures to add here.

Wow, lovely models! The Phoenix cannot compete with the Aeroclassics, nothing really can. Thanks for sharing!

GJ vs NG Qantas 787-9 Standard livery

These are both lovely models but I do prefer the NG, even though it has the old inaccurate main gear height and the red on the tail is too dark. The cockpit printing is a make-or-brake for me on the 787s and I just prefer NG’s extra detail, makes it look much better. (This is the second release GJ QF 787-9 on the newer JC mould)

 

[KG3036_SS]

Coming in with the Malaysia Airlines "Freedom of Space" 777 from JC Wings(Left) and Phoenix(Right)


The Phoenix one is awaiting for a new home though

Very cool models you have there. I think they both did an excellent job on these ones, but to me, the JC just looks a tad better.

Yea I agree, although Phoenix's glossy finish works extremely well on this livery - a striking contrast to the slightly more matte JC which makes their's color looks slightly dull and printings look too sharp. The dealbreaker for me are colors at the front of the Phoenix - way too purple to my eye. Moreover, the inferiority of Phoenix's casting ultimately make me decided that PH's version is the one to leave my collection. It ain't bad - it just don't win over the JC one's on my side.

These look very similar overall.

Here are my comparisons of the NG VS AV400 Lufthansa 789. Both beautiful and nearly equal but I prefer the red jewels and tilting main gear from AV400.

These look very similar overall.

They do, and aside from the downward tilt and slightly darker tail of the NG, it is very difficult to tell them apart.

Yeah can’t wait to get my copy of the av400 model
