  1. Beriev Be-6 Madge at The Ukraine State Aviation Museum Zhulyany, Kiev. Pics thanks to Dave Haskell.
  2. Sorry, but the images are not the best, it's a big beast, longer than a B-29, and I didn't have a big enough backdrop, plus the lighting's not that good. Here's a link to my work in progress posts: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235012168-beriev-be-10-mallow-172-a-model/&page=1
  3. Here's another one of my model. I wanted to do something bigger than usual. In place of the engines were deaf wall. I removed them and put the engines of the Tu-4. I can not say that they are very copy , but it is better than it was before. Also made of two-component putty intakes on the engine. In cabin I added only seatbelts.. There's nothing much to be seen. Muzzle of defensive arms are made of brass tubes. In the model applied riveting. I wanted to make a model of worn airplane. So I did a lot of weathering (oil dots and salt dots.)
  4. A lot of mods, scratch-building and corrections went into this one (please see list at end of the post), far from perfect but it'll do. Here's a link to the build in the Work In Progress forum: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235000785-trumpeter-172-beriev-be-6/ Here's a list of the mods I ended up making: Engines: Remove ventral nacelle/wing panelling and scratch-build cooling air ducts from plastic-card. Replace kit cowl front with inverted B-29. Modify shape of cowl upper intake mouth to Be-6 shape using plastic-card and filler. Scratch-build cowl intake trunking to prevent see-through. Scratch-build small scoops in cowl mouth and add drain pipes outside this. Use R-3350 from B-29 after removing ignition harness and scratch-building magnetos. Scratch-build new inlet mouth for air intake scoop underneath cowl. Hollow out rearwards facing vent on top of nacelle. Scratch-build rear part of exhaust pipes. Replace kit propellers with B-29 items. Do not use kit parts ? & ?, they represent turboprop exhausts! Wings & Floats: Reduce size of circular inlet in starboard wing, add matching inlet to port wing. Fit fuel-dump pipes and cut way when dry to fill their locating holes as not required. Shorten fuel-dump pipes and re-locate further back along wing chord. Cut rounded tips off pitots. Fill engraved leading edge-lights located mid span. Scratch-build clear landing lights in leading edge near tips. Round off and refine slab-like wing fences near tips. Replace slab-like kit float struts with scratch-built streamlined section items. Drill holes in back of weapons pylons and wing to attach weapon release cables made of wire. Fuselage: Scratch-build left side control column (not supplied with kit). Move pilots’ seats closer to control columns. Remove TV-style antennae represented by solid blocks moulded either side of cockpit. Scratch-build new TV-style antennae and their mounts. Remove port-side vent below cockpit and carve new open-mouth example from scratch. Drill out mouth of air-scoop mounted on canopy. Dill out mouth of air-scoop mounted on rear fuselage. Remove rear of small vent on fuselage rear and replace with open mouth made from cut tube. Replace nose cannon barrel with scratch-built item using hypodermic needles. Replace kit mid-upper turret with B-29 item with modified Soviet style gun mantlet. Replace turret cannon barrels with scratch-built item using hypodermic needles and plastic tube. Raise rear gunner’s seat from keel to correct height to look out of his canopy. Add plastic-card rear wall to rear-gunners compartment to hide seams where tail-plane joins. Scratch-build rear-gunner’s gun-sight. Replace rear cannon barrels with scratch-built item using hypodermic needles and plastic tube. Remove and refine sea-rudder, and add bottom hinge structure. Replace several antenna masts with scratch-built examples (kit ones look like power-poles). Don’t fit APU exhaust part F63, it’s a feature of the turboprop version, but fill in engraved lines marking its location.
