American Airlines and modeling

The recently announced release by Herpa of an American Airlines DC-10-30, has sparked a basic topic for me - the American Airlines livery as it relates to modeling.

 

I have a basic and simple message to model makers everywhere:

If you can't make bare metal liveries BARE METAL, polished, or even chrome, then don't even bother. Please stop screwing around with silver paint or for Heaven's sake, gray. "Inflights DC-10 mold doesn't allow for bare metal" - then…

My 4th A10A Warthog !!

It looks quite more accurate regarding the wings dihedral than the 3 Easy Model A10s.

 

But, unfortunately, this model lacks of a lot of markings under the…

Entire 1:400 Collection for sale!

I have decided to sell my entire 1:400 collection. I have decided to focus entirely on 1:200 and let someone else enjoy some rare 1:400 in perfect condition at a very good price.

 

Make me an offer on any of my 1:400 models listed in my collection. Each serious offer will be considered. A good place to start would be the average price suggested for each model in the DAC database. First come, first serve. Buy five or more at a time and receive free shipping!
