Model Review: Korean Air Boeing 747SP by NG Models

[YesterAirlines]

As you spotted @LeoMuse747 NG Models first 747SP in a year comes with an excellent updated mould fixing the nose as well as making another change on the underside. Unfortunately it also comes with livery, paint and print issues that mean it receives the lowest review score I've ever given an NG release. I'm blaming @pons399 for this. NG obviously realising this was a KE release knew they should do their best to upset you :

The mould update is very welcome but it's sad to see many issues with the printing application in this model.
The cheatline also doesn't seem to be straight. There's an inclination which is quite visible in the front section, just forward of the front doors

Real bummer. Mine is en route. Just like D-ABUM was looking forward to this one. Looks like NG's keeping 'Not Good' these days - whilst their moulds are the best or amongst the best in the business - botchy printing and inadequate research is chipping away at the reputation they've built

With new players in the market that are more agile and dexterous - the last thing we'd want is for NG to become another JC

This seems to be a recurring issue recently - D-ABUM has it, recent CZ 777s have it

Jokes on them, I don’t care unless it’s in the pepsi livery. Which doesn’t make things better, but whatever…
