Robert,
I have been waiting to be able to view this model without any other distractions. I really like what you did with it right down to the passengers inside the cabin. I can't think of anything else to add but WOW!!!!!!

These tired eyes don't see any passengers but found a great model of a neat plane. Mike

Nicely done model. I can't see the passengers either but then that is why I sold my motorcycle :-)) I remember flying on one of those several times when I was young.they were really cool planes

I remember when you built this plane(there are passengers guys, lol). I love the vintage airliners. great photography and a great build.

Nice Super Constellation. What did you use for the props?

Thanks guys, props are .010 clear styrene disks cut with compass (scriber point used in place of pencil lead). Masking tape strips used to outline prop blades, those areas sanded (220 grit IIRC), kit prop spinners then attached.

Beautiful build Rob, from the golden age of prop air travel.

Thanks for the link Ray, I hadn't seen those before. Ideas for the next model airliner!

Yea, they're pretty cool. Granted I haven't used them yet either, but if airbrushed well, they look quite convincing. I think I'll stick to jets, though.
