PhantomBigStu Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 (edited) well, I won't be entering with the italeri su34 given thats now on my bench, but I think I can get myself organised and buy a revell/zvezda su27 in time, then buy some akan paint when the time comes...

vppelt68 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 PBS, that sounds a lot like my plan too. I try to do two Zvezda Flankers, a 33 and a 27, one in this STGB and one in From Russia With Love GB. So far got only one kit, though...

Valkyrie Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Can i jump in too? I'd do at least a couple Russian navy 33, Ukrainian 27UB and maybe a rare scheme 27.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave, I'd like to know what you think about it. First look makes you sure its over 50% done, but if you know this kit, there's about ten parts, no more. And I might change the K-36 for a resin one.

FortyEighter Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) Aiming to come on board with another air show build; Ukraine Su-27UB Blue 71 as displayed at Malta 2016. Also have an Su-27 single seater, so if only I could find decals for 58 could attempt the display pair.

Jasonb13 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Just wondering, I'd put myself down for the Italeri 1:72 Su-34, but I realise now that's technically not a Flanker, but a Fullback (even if it's based on the Flanker). Is that version allowed in this GB? Thanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johan Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Hello, I would be happy to join this GB. I have the Academy 1/48 SU-27 (Eduard's reboxing) that has been sitting in the stash since 2011. I have inserted the resin cockpit tube (2 parts) into the upper half of the air frame but that's it. Best regards Johan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radleigh Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Going to try and get something done..... we'll see, being a new dad is quite demanding but I do have a bit of spare time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonb13 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Congrats Radleigh! I didn't build a model for almost a year when I became a Father! I have my kit, still have to get the decals and paint, but sure I can start before I get them! Looking forward to it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vppelt68 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Forgive me my very basic question regarding how to paint my Flanker! I have the 1:72 Zvezda Su-33 kit which I plan to build out of the box with kit supplied decals. Is the AKAN set #47326 what I need for painting the beast? I´m confused with Sea Flanker old and new paint schemes, and with which AKAN paints are water thinnable and suit a brush painter best. Thanks in advance, V-P.

I´m confused with Sea Flanker old and new paint schemes, and with which AKAN paints are water thinnable and suit a brush painter best. Thanks in advance, V-P. It is the correct set for a Su-33 painted after 2006. So it fits the decal versions in the Zvezda Su-33 kit. Single colors are 73163, 73164 and 73165. Although Akan also offers 73030 and 73065 for the Su-33. Keep in mind that the above mentioned colors are 'factory fresh' tones. They tend to fade quick in real life. I have the akan colors as well but may exchange them for the new Hataka orange-line series. They look to me a little bit better and are also easier to work with. At least for me :-) A question from me: Is it possible to join this group build at a later time? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonb13 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I'm not a Mod or anything, but I'm pretty certain you can join a Group Build whenever you want, even one week before the end of it, if you think you can complete the build in time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exdraken Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) Hu! That one is also already on the doorstep! A hard year for time constraint folks like me any soo many interesting GBs!! But this one is hard to pass by......... 1/48, Su-35 or 33 for a midern tooling.... Or a classic Academy Su-27 in Russian Knights colors? Or a MKI type conversion? ....a week to think about Edited September 24, 2017 by exdraken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomBigStu Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) Damn this has crept up, hopefully I'll still be able to join, just need to pick up the Akan pants for the revell zvezda su27. Every time I go and buy them and the su34 ones there's always one out of stock though. probably also an idea to make it clear which sets/colours are for which schemes, not even sure Ive got it correct Edited September 25, 2017 by PhantomBigStu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
