The cone thing in the back is called the exhausted nozzle. Great build!

What a really beautiful model ... Good job ! Thanks for the Silver Mica paint mix formula as in the future I'm going to build a Zvezda 777-300ER American Airlines livery.

Excelent work I really like a Lot zvezda models recently I build an Ilyushin IL 62 and the details are awsome and nice to work with

@ScaleModelAssassin 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks and I agree. Zvezda does an excellent job. Just wish they made a smaller scale...only to take up less space on the shelf

The cone is the exhaust nozzle. Those are usually metallic-blue when they leave the GE Engines factory. Good job on the model. Nice build.

its called an LPT cone, the low pressure turbine section of the engine where the oil flows for bearing cooling and lubrisation,

haha thanks, I guess I thought it would have a more technical name, but it seems very obvious now

@parpadoo65 9 ай бұрын

Hey, where do you get your decals from. Thanks!

@lflynn7050 3 жыл бұрын

I believe the cone on the back of the engine is literally just called an “exhaust cone”, I think it’s used to collect all the discharge gasses that the main turbine produces!

@ScaleModelAssassin 3 жыл бұрын

Makes sense, it was too obvious for me to guess. I was thinking it would have some scientific name, but I like the simplicity

Did you paint over the kit's transparent windows? Did you putty them first, or just paint over as is? (sorry, I'm about to do my first airliner, I usually build 1/350 warships)

@ScaleModelAssassin 2 жыл бұрын

Good question, I puttied and sanded them before painting. There's no guarantee your window decal will line up perfectly with the kit windows, so its best to start with a smooth clean surface

@avenger6944 2 жыл бұрын

How do you adress the inevitable seams that present themselves inside the engine cowlings, top/bottom ? Nice build

@ScaleModelAssassin 2 жыл бұрын

👍 For those seams, they're a nightmare (if they are actually present). On this plane, thanks to good kit engineering they aren't there. See 2:01 and thats the front of the cowling moulded as 1 circular piece. On other planes Ive used either a thin round metal file, or sandpaper wrapped and super glued to a toothpick. If you want to see this technique in action, check out my Solaseed Air 737 build at 2:39. Each method is tough and usually takes multiple putty/sand attempts.

@danieljones6805 2 жыл бұрын

It looks really good. do you use warm water for decals or do you use a decal liquid?

@ScaleModelAssassin 2 жыл бұрын

Both. I use warm water to separate the decal from the backing. While Im positioning it on the model, sometimes I use water, sometimes I use decal solution (Microset). I honestly cant tell the difference so it just depends on my mood. Once its in place, I always use a decal softener (Microsol) to help it conform and sink into the panel lines even better.

@mmlips Жыл бұрын

Hi, I just purchased this kit and it my first since I built a kit when I was 18. LONG TIME AGO. You put in the windows then primed and painted over them??? Is that the preferred way to do it at this scale. I can’t imagine masking those. Thanks!

@ScaleModelAssassin Жыл бұрын

Ive always used window decals to avoid having to mask the windows.

You did a great job, but there's no way I would want to work in 1:144...I can't even stand 1:72. You must have nerves of steel and patience by the truckload.

Thank you, you're correct on the patience aspect. So many tiny parts to deal with
