Jonathan's USN SAR Albatross (Amodel)

[Jonathan]

This is to be a twin of the completed one on the left.

I have decals made with different numbers. Much daunting work to do...

Looking back through my photos, I find that I finished the first one and started the second just after Christmas, 2012!
I will definately have the two finished side by side before Christmas of this year! that's 8 months from now, but I am doing the Orions first.

Ah that looks familiar! One of the very few kits I've had to fettle with in exile is the Amodel Albatross. Watching this with interest when the Orions are done!

By the way the finished one is stunning. I had to revisit the original thread to have a look at her properly.

I dont think I posted a build thread for the SAR albatross, but here is a recent pose

I meant the painting showcase. I think Merlin's is the only build thread on here? I had a looksee when I got a bit stuck on mine. Yours is stunning, though. Mine is the triphibian one. Very colourful and a lot of masking to be done some day. Kind of done as much as I can right now without getting stuck into main paintjob.
