  It has been quite a long time since my last submission to ARC . My last 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 .
