Airbus A321 in retro livery celebrating the 50th anniversary of Lufthansa. This model is a Revell kit in 1/144 scale, approved by Lufthansa.The kit itself is nothing exceptional, builds nicely though but the decal sheet is the main attraction here.
I left the cabin windows open and used the cheatline decals. All door outlines and small details were printed really nice and decals were easy to apply and handle.
This 1/144 model was painted with an airbrush using Revell and Humbrol enamels and acrylics glosscoats. Final topcoats are a tad heavy, but it makes dusting the model easier.
There is, as always, room for improvement in this model too, but I think it gives a nice illusion of the original plane.
This retro airliner resembles a real 50's Lufthansa Boeing 707 despite the missing 2 engines, I'm looking forward building the 707 in Lufthansa livery some day.
Here's a study for a more realistic background. I took the photo outdoors using stained metal table and real sunshine.
