At this point I would be happy if they just slapped the 747-8 nose on the 747-4 and called it day...

Minor detail, but I checked the underside of the wings through the photos up on IG (I originally made suggestions to NG and it's in one of Richard's articles also). Looks like they did make some change from the sample mould but they for some reason just copied the details from the 748... Not the end of the world but that means the flaps are incorrect as the 748 has a different flap design.
Can't quite see the top side of the wings with NG's photos. If anyone can post a top view photo later that would be much appreciated. If they copied the 748 config on the top side too, that needs to be fixed immediately.

Could you also send them a note on the cockpit windows position?
If they lift it to the right location, then it'll look perfect. I notice this simple move will fix the weird current cockpit window / forehead situation

Another one I’ve picked up on, they have forgot the fuel jettison valve in between the outer aileron and winglet. If you could pass that onto NG it would be much appreciated!

Has anyone had the opportunity to analyze NG's new 747-400 yet? Pretty eager for a review on this one @YesterAirlines !
I do own one. It is on my list to do

Can’t wait!
Yeah that's the one. NG's 747s aren't exciting me to be honest so it hasn't been high on my list! There's always more exciting things to look at!I think I've seen it on your Xin Long airport latest video

I rely on your criticisms to be a more educated consumer hence why I'm looking forward to the review
Same for me, i'm too excited with HX and NG still didn't really impress with their 747-400. Still not a single clue from their 747 Classics either!

Can't say I'm too excited by HX but I agree on NG. Still would like to see some good images of an NG 744 before ordering one.
As for NG's 747Classics I'm curious as well. I can only imagine two scenarios:
1. They completely shelved it as everyone seems to be totally satisfied with HX
2. They started from scratch to finally put something to market that blows the competition out of the water.
Given their recent focus I'd almost say 1.
