Hello, fellow modellers, my Name is Norbert, I am from Germany. One of my favourite modelling subjects are airliners.
Here is my latest build, not really an airliner, but close! This Aircraft is used by the Russian Ministry for Emergency Situations. I bought the kit couple of years ago from a fellow modeller. it included the kit decals made by pas decals and an extra set by Eastern Express.
I selected this scheme as the others were either boring or not correct when compared to photos.
RusAir produces resin kits of Russian Aircraft. The fuselages are not solid but made out of two halves. That makes the kits not as heavy as other resin kits.
As the decals were not designed for this kit, they did not fit completely, sp some brush work had to be done and some compromises hade to be made.
I used Tamiya White X-2 for the fuselage upper side and Revell for the underside and the wings. The leading edges and engine parts have been airbrushed with MIG metal Colours.
The Yak-42 used by MchS has more antennaes than the airliners. These had to be added by Scratch, off Course.
Hope You like the Little three-engine Jet!
Cheers, Norbert
