Panda Models - November/December (???) New Releases

Well, publicity has worked. I had no clue that Chinese wine was a thing... Now Japanese whisky, different story!

"No taste" is probably not a good way to describe a livery promoting wine 😅. But I agree, pretty bland

Moutai isn't wine - it is a grain based liquor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maotai

I don't mind the scheme myself. I've seen far worse in the US market. I have the A321 already and quite like it:

Great to see Delta 767-300ER. GJ version has an old mould and NG cockpit windows needs improvement. I really loved Panda 767-400ER and I’m impatient to receive their Delta SkyTeam livery 767-400ER N844MH after months of wait…
Did you buy it on Taobao?

then you can also find another scheme, Wuliangye by Sichuan Airlines, which is another famous liquor in China.
perhaps they are on a budget for livery design.

Is there any way I can get in touch with Panda? The Delta 767s' overwing details are a bit tricky and I just want to ensure they get them done correctly.
 
Not sure if these were shown already... Panda's MD-11 as shown on MyHobbyHouse's Facebook:

Intake of the tail engine looks a little bit weird

Yep, a little seam which shouldn't be there. I guess the intake ring is a separate piece.
I'm not too convinced about the engine shape on both models too...
The AA have GE CF6-80s but they look a bit undersized, at least in first glance. The PW engines of the Delta also don't seem to have a too accurate shape, maybe the nacelle is a bit too long. But honestly I better wait for more pictures from other angles.

overall, both models still look quite stunning to me. Wayyyyy better than PHX MD-11!
