Hi everyone!

This is the Revell (actually it is a Heller 1974 mold) 1/450 Boeing 747-200. The kit was bought from a vendor during my hometown's March 2023 model show. Understandably, I had a lot of pressure from my sons to start it, so, off this simplistic kit goes...
Here is the progress so far...

Will be finished as a KLM bird.
More to come!

What a great kit, Spiros @fiveten
Especially the scheme is beautiful 🙂

Thanks my friend @johnb! Indeed, a gorgeous scheme!

Looking forward to seeing this one, Spiros (@fiveten). It seems outside your normal path, but it will look cool when its done. I always hate to do airliners because of the long, thin stripes in the decals.

Thanks my friend @gblair!

I’m sure it will look great, Spiros @fiveten, 1/450 is an unusual scale though, isn’t it?
Spiros Pendedekas said 1 year, 8 months ago:

Thanks my friend @chinesegeorge! Yes, 1/450 is definitely unusual, more like a desktop suitable scale.

Engines attached and filling/sanding in progress...

Thanks for stopping by!

She looks very smooth already, Spiros @fiveten
Spiros Pendedekas said 1 year, 8 months ago:

Thanks my friend @johnb! Really curious how this Lilliputian scale model will turn out...
Spiros Pendedekas said 1 year, 8 months ago:

White applied on the fin, the leftover paint was used as filler...

Thanks for stopping by!

This looks good, Spiros @fiveten
I see the Humbrol blue tones are already selected.
Spiros Pendedekas said 1 year, 8 months ago:

Thanks my friend @johnb! My younger son made the selection, offering me two options for the blue, so...the shades have been chosen and are non-negotiable 😄😄😄
George Williams said 1 year, 8 months ago:

Looking good already, @fiveten, the blues look like a great choice.

Thanks my friend @chinesegeorge!
I think Nikos has a good eye 🙂
