The Stargazer

The hole that needed to be cut for the Pegasus tail fin was enlarged from existing display stand hole. You can also see the BIG gap on the right wing. 

The gap on the left wing 

L-1011 fuselage haves joined & seam filled & sanded 

The Pegasus XL waiting for its build 

Did my own masks with Oramask 810 stencil film, this stuff is GREAT! Excellent mask with no bleed, its clear so you can see how to cut it & where it needs to be tacked down. 

Attached the Cutting Edge Pegasus cradle 

Even though I had the Eastern express engines & metal detail updates I used the Otaki engines with just the exhaust nozzle from the Eastern Express engines. This gave me the best combination & updates the engines to the Rolls-Royce RB.211-524B. 

Check Pegasus XL done, I hate not having any alignment pins for the fins, they are just butt mounted. 

Mother & baby, a few more details & its primer time 

L-1011 in White. After primer & 2 coats of Mission Model white, wings & horizontal stabilizers taped off for Alclad Aluminum 

The Tristar now has silver wings, Alclad II "Aluminum" ALC-101 paint used.  

DONE! you can't call yourself a scale modeler of airliners until you have attached 1/144 scale windshield wipers!
