Hello Everyone: This is my first post here, my first Russian plane in 48th and my first Flanker! I have done what a I could to take better pictures, as it was to resplendent I changed the gloss finish to semi-gloss and I added a picture of the conversion I used. It is a conversion I found on ebay time ago, does not have any brand on it (or box... or bag...), i guess is the copy of a copy... of a good conversion. Interior, seat, windscreen and IR were not included so I used some parts from the academy kit, seat from wolfpack and scratch for the windscreen and IR. Decals from begemont, demo flankers and PE ladder from Turbine. It was painted with water based acrylics, Akan for the interior and the dark brown, Vallejo for all the rest, including primer, varnish and decal solution (first time working with this kind of paint and I loved them, no smells, no thinners, just tap water!). I tried to build a model of the first prototype, as it was seen in FIDAE 98 in Chile. I have just started to work on Flankers and I`m not an expert so would be great to have some feedback. All comments and constructive criticism welcome. Thanks for watching. Adrian

Beautiful models you got there. Looks different with desert camo, I mean good different in the chilean markings! Great work

I`m gonna cry... Great news, hope to see the plastic soon!

Wow... she is a beauty mate. Great work. Adrian

You are really onto it! three posts and you are nearly there! I wish I could do that. It is coming along nicely, the cockpit looks great and just OOB! Great work Peter. Adrian

Looks just great. Well done. Adrian

She looks beautiful ! You`ve done a great work on that model mate! Adrian

They look fantastic! It`s quite big difference in size between them! Great work! Adrian

Great work! They look fantastic. I know people who`s been modelling for 30 years and can`t do half of what you`ve done !!! Adrian

What a beauty you got there mate! Might have errors but it looks like a su-24 to me! Great work. Adrian

love your work mate. Looks great! Adrian

Very nice build indeed!

Great looking model you got there! A few around lately... Now I`m thinking about getting one... or two... Congrats! Adrian

Another one... La-250 Anakonda 1/48 I can keep going with russian planes but it may not be everyone`s taste.... not sure. Adrian

Just came to mind... Mig-5 1/48 would be nice, to complete the serie in 48th. Regards Adrian

Hi Martin, not sure if it has been suggested but I know more than just a few modellers interested in a Tu-128 1/48. There is a model in 1/72 to use a reference. Regards Adrian
