Redboost Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Hi fellow modellers, this something a bit different from my usual stuff, but I have to say I was impressed. Built mostly oob except etched screens from Eduard etched in the air ducts which looked horrible in the kit, plus some other small thingies. I'm aware some aspects of the kit may not be 100% correct, but I'm fine with that and it looks fab within the centre of my post-WII cabinet. Painted with my own GSI Aqueus mixes and decals from the kit. Cheers Libor 53 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sobby_23 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 That looks fantastic, I'll be chuffed if my Flanker turns out half as good! Vibrancy of the colours is especially eye catching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Superb Suchoi! Russian a/c are out of my general area of interest, so minor bloopers in accuracy bother me not. ;-) Certainly looks like a magnificent Su-33 to my eyes!

Thud4444 Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Wow! How did you do that weathering? Pre-shading? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alxzinbox Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Great build! The details in the cockpit and the fine paint work on the camo and exhaust are outstanding! What did you use for the oleo pistons of the landing gear? They look brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redboost Posted November 11, 2016 Author Share Posted November 11, 2016 Thanks chaps, glad you like it! The oleo pistons are kind of Bare metal foil; not that particular brand, but a cheap stuff obtained at a show. The weathering is postshaded, actually it is more distict especially underneath. The photo lights killed that effect a bit, I'm afraid. Cheers Libor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NazarovVladimir Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Beautiful course, but absolutely not the color camouflage scheme is rather conventional, extra pylons for rockets, sign During the long march on the right so the air intake once, well, the little things ...

Redboost Posted November 13, 2016 Author Share Posted November 13, 2016 Thanks Vladimir, I'm aware about most of your comments. I already added the flag on the starboard side, that was just my omission. Well, the colours are hardly to capture as they seems to rapidly change over the service time. The patterns my not be correct indeed, I just followed the Trumpy kit instructions as I did not want to go too deep into this topic, it was just a kind of fun build. I promise next time I will make it better:-) Cheers Libor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
