Hello, all airliners fans. I want to show you one future freighter horse. It's the freighter version of Airbus three-eighty in UPS colors.
I used Revell kit of passenger A-380-800. I deleted the window holes and doors on the fuselage and rescribed new cargo doors. Paints are Model Master 1745 insignia white, Humbrol 24 yellow, Humbrol 10 service brown. Light grey for wing surfaces is mixed using Humbrol satin colors and dark grey for walkway section I used Humbrol 128 dark ghost grey.

On this picture you can see the three-eighty from another angle with dark background for showing the shape of this aircraft.

Decals are custom made using Propagteam clear and white decal sheets and color laser printer. I made the UPS bearing on the rudder as a png file using GIMP editor and the fuselage sign Worldwide Services... I made using LaTeX typographic system.
