1/144 Revell A 319 - Mexicana

--------------------

 

It has been quite a long time since my last submission to ARC.  My latest model is an Airbus A319.  Needless to say the kit is superb in quality and fit.  I decided to build my model in Mexicana (Mayan tail) colors which I found more attractive rather than the default BA or Germanwings c/s's ( no offence :) )

I bought the decals from Nazca which I found to be worth the expense.  Exact size & beautiful fit.

I put 4x5 grams of weight to the nose and glued them with CA first and carpenter's glue afterwards to avoid their possible moving up and down in the model ;)

I used Revell 04 white for the body and Modelmasters paints for the wings and Floquil Hi Gloss for the overall finish.  The result is satisfactory to me and hopefully to you too.
