Reini78 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 #10/2017 Took a bit longer to complete due to several (selfinflicted) problems. Mounted the nozzles inverted but could fix it. Then followed the camoplan in the Caracal instructions but that was wrong and reshaped the camo. When my dad started with the decals we realized that GWH accidentally packed a 9-13 upper fuselage part in the kit box instead of a 9-12 one. Luckily Myanmar has also a bunch of SE MiG-29 beside the A models, so once again camo reshaping. Used RAF style codes from Fantasy Printshop as new numbers. And for the finish my dad broke the canopy and had to use a new one from another kit. The light and dark grey-blues are selfmixes, the middle blue is Gunze H25 Sky Blue (The dark grey-blue should be a bit brighter and the radome grey a bit darker but my dad had enough of re-painting ). Stencils from the kit, national markings from Caracal Models. Brake lines added with plastic rods and lead wire. Build thread here 35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darby Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Lovely build. Nice to see lesser known air forces. Fin flashes add a difference to the whole scheme. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vultures1 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 (edited) Looks great in the Myanmar scheme. The colour contrast in the lightest blue between the old and new pics is interesting (at least on my screen!) and illustrates how the same colour can look different with different lighting, background, camera settings etc Thanks for posting!

Myanmar, not Malaysia Yes, that´s right, it is the same with pics of real aircraft, depending on the light etc. colour tones can differ very much. Before, I used a light cube with two construction lights shining through the sidewalls, and the white background often wasn´t so ideal for the eye. The light blue one now is much more pleasing. Furthermore I use now three daylight lamps, two from the sides and one from above. Now the pics look more natural. thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
