Presidental Embaer ERJ-135LR

[Raw_Shooter]

Good afternoon my friends     As I said I like 1/35 kits -- specially german ones of W.W. II but sometimes I make  few airplanes or figures (really can I post Pegaso's 200mm female figures or it's prohibited ??)...
So last year I decided to try a multimedia kit by Welsh Models in 1/72 scale. This multimedia kit include vac-form "body" - resin wings & tail - metal landing gears & seats & engine intakes/outtakes...

I wanted to make the Hellenic republic's presidential airplane

Due the vac-form parts it was needed a lot of putty and hours n' hours of sanding.....The greatest problem was the decals    There isn't anything available...so I made mine...and then printed by my laser printer

After that I sprayed whole plane by semi gloss white and made the blue lines using Tamiya's masking tape

Nice airplane ! You solved all problems during build process successfully and the result is very nice AC.
I like these small jets, they are always extraordinary.
You could post here more photos of washed plane.
Cheers !
