modelling minion Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Nice work Werner. As for the main colour I'm not sure what to suggest, I used up an old Aeromaster Soviet air defence grey which is the right colour. I know Akan make sets for Soviet/Russian aircraft but the one for the grey looks a little dark to me, I think it's based on the colour for the Mig-31 which I think is a slightly different colour but I might be wrong. Not much help really, sorry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted April 23, 2017 Author Share Posted April 23, 2017 so I finally decided on using some 2:1 mix of Revell 371 and 76. still need to paint some parts a bit more (to better cover up my pre-shade orgy ), maybe I will also alter the shade a bit to get some weathering effects. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hewy Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 I like it werner your colour mix looks like it was a success, as was the pre shade orgy, very effective, Glynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Good job on the colour mix Werner, it looks about right to me. As Glynn says the pre-shading seems to have worked well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exdraken Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 (edited) it is time to finish her!!!! ICM released a RB boxing incorporating all my modifications in the meantime .... incl decals!! I think decaling can start, some touch-ups necessary after several months collecting only dust.... apart from that, if you have problems seeing my old photobucket links to photos, for the time being this embedded link fixs worsk quite well : https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/photobucket-embed-fix/naolkcpnnlofnnghnmfegnfnflicjjgj there is also one for firefox Edited September 16, 2017 by exdraken 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modelling minion Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Nice to see your Foxbat back on track Werner. Typical that the kit has been re-released with all your mods included! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted September 17, 2017 Author Share Posted September 17, 2017 thanks! some decals... ICM proposes to use Egyptian markings with stars, as worn during thr UARAF time (United arab republic airforce) Begemot to use Egyptian markings without stars or Eagle... I anybody comes up with good photos of these planes, I am ready to change the markings or build a second at the moment it is stenceling time...... red and black fo rearly Foxbats, as opposed to red and blue for later ones. --> Begemot stencils it is! they offer both options 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
