1/144 Revell Airbus A330-300

This is a Revell  kit in 1/144 scale of an Airbus  A330-300 in Royal Brunei colors.  Now before all you rivet counters stroke out,  Royal Brunei doesn't have any A330's, this scheme was taken from their A340-200.  I had already finished a A 340 and had this kit of the A330 waiting to be built and decided it would look good in the Royal Brunei scheme.  The decals are from Flightpath of which I used two sheets due to the longer fuselage and bigger diameter of the engines.  The model was painted with Model Masters enamels, Gloss White and Chrome Yellow for the main colors, Gloss Gull Grey on the wings and stabs,  Gunship Grey for the corrugated on the wings. Alclad Polished Aluminum was used on the wing leading edges and engine cowls, and  a mixture of Alclad Pale Jet Exhaust and Testors Burnt Iron  was used for the exhaust cones.
