1958 SHU-16B/ASW Albatross - wip
This picture is out of the pilots personell album I got from his wife.
The only colored picture of his plane I found.
Tiny parts for me. Regullarly I'm building cars. It is totally new for me
To compare the scale with the 1/144 Space Shuttle
Every part had to get over built
Kind of cuteness 🙂
Base paint added (Revell 90)
Signal orange (Revell 125)
Added the decals. They are from "HaHen"
Landing gear added - 7 parts each side
First layer of matt clear coat
Looks good so far 🙂
That's it. More in the gallery
