Today a very special package arrived. Why was it special you ask? Because it contained my 200th model.  So without further ado, here are my 5 new arrivals! My second CCCP-86054, a custom donor to be.  My first CCCP-86015.  The long awaited CCCP-85390!  The lovely LZ-HMW.  And here is my 200th model: Continental Airlines Boeing 757-300 N75851!  |

Well, as my CCCP-86054 strip down proccess failed i had to find yet another donor. And that arrived today. And as a matter of fact, that strip down went a lot better. However i will only share the before picture as it's still a WIP. So, here is my third CCCP-86054 before it was stripped of its titles and registration.  And what happened to my second one you ask? Instead of throwing it away i thought of another project i could use it for. However as those decals aren't avalible yet, this is what it looks like now.  |

Some news on my collection front: 1. On April 10th(estimated), a shipment of custom ordered 3D printed models will be shipped. ETA is unknown at this time. The models are of military nature, but more will not be revealed unless you can guess what it is. 2. I have placed an order at Aviation Center Berlin which is my largest single order so far, consisting of a total of 12 models. 9 of which are on pre-order. The list of models is the following: - Aeroflot Il-96 524223
- Aeroflot retro A320 525930
- Aeroflot Cargo MD-11F 523653
- Austrian retro A320 524247
- British World 1-11 525923
- Interflug Dash-8-100 523806
- Lauda 737-800 525947
- S7 767-300 519274
- Sibir Il-86 524131
- Transaero 777-200 523561
- TWA L-1011 523363
- Yakutia 757-200 524186
I have asked ACB to hold the order until all models are ready to be shipped so no ETA at the time this is written. I am keeping my fingers crossed there will be no delays. 3. My custom 737-200 has been halted for the time being as the decals have yet to arrive(they were ordered on March 19th), making me wonder what to do with it. Should i start a paypal dispute? Should i wait and see what happens? Should i start another project using this donor? |

Today a stunning piece of aviation history landed in my hands. An airline never to be seen again, one of the greatest liveries of all times on one of the most beautiful airframes to have come off the drawing board. Sadly only one of these beauties was painted in these colours... I am talking, ofcourse, about TWA L-1011 N31029 in the last paintscheme TWA wore as an independant airline.  A stunning combo of aircraft and livery.  And just look at that tail.  Also, in other news, i will get my 3D printed fighters tomorrow. Unless UPS messes up. So for all of you who are eager to see what they are, your wait will soon be over. |
