jynski Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Would love to see a build thread for these. The Kazan conversions, if you can find one, are overly expensive. Your builds are great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lovely pair there, great to see some soviet steel! Love to see the build too - I didn't make "work in progress" for these models, the main job was to adapt the Su 7 fuselage to Su 15 Flagon A wings and landing gear, the span has to be augmented by 4 milimeters at roots,some modifications had to be made around the fin too, the cockpit has to be moved rearward and a new nose had to be created for the 11 ,using an Airfix Lightning radar cone, plans came from of an old L & K Kosmonautica, for the cockpit I used Noemega items. As far as I remember this kit bashing was not very difficult except for the nose of the 11 which is a block of resin moulded in a photofilm canister and hollowed at nose end. That all, I can say, if you really want these models on your shelves just to it, it is very fun and really rewarding and I took a great pleasure during their building and once again it is not very dificult Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
