Syrian markings: they've been donated to the SyAAF. And they're actually all quite fresh out of overhauls (fuselages were overhauled in Iran, 'inside' in Syria). So, I would say they've got a few additional years of service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exdraken Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 got my kit today! KP/ Kopro plastic for a Su-17M4 or Su-22M4 ( the M3 tail fin filler is not provided) as expected nice decals for 3 polish schemes (one in a very rare experimental low-viz scheme) and a resin ejection seat, which is better than the kit seat, but not as nice as Neomega, Aires, Quickboost, or Eduard ones. (I suspect it is the same seat as in Karaya's (ex FM) MiG-29 upgrade set ) a nice full color paint guide with spot on colors is provided for all three aircraft, as well as a newly printed glossy instruction sheet definitely worth it and an overdue re-edition! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 The decal sheet from Authentic Decals comes with a reasonable set of stencils with it although I have feeling these are more for the Ukrainian markings. The decal sheet that comes with the Eduard boxing also has a decent set of stencils but that's not much good to someone buying this kit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 here are some for example, decently priced accuracy for polish Aircraft? no idea http://www.jadarhobby.pl/hidecal-48011-su17m4-fitter-148-p-3567.html?language=en¤cy=EUR modelmakerdecals promised polsih su-22 decals a year ago... lets see, wait and hope for decals + stencils!

Breaker Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Ordered this morning, had a response from the owner straight away, all paid for and on it's way Monday!

Muzz Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 This is the Authentic Decal set, no Polish option and as I say think the stencils are specifically for the Ukranian AF but I'm sure some many will be common to both. http://www.hannants.co.uk/product/AD4812 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 My kit arrived yesterday, earlier than the estimated date which was good but I can't say I'm impressed with their packing of the kit for posting, in a bubble wrap lined envelope!! The kit box lid is pretty flimsy and unfortunately my kit didn't survive the journey unscathed, two large cracks in the rear of the port side fuselage half. The fuselage half is nearly in three bits, luckily the plastic has broken in such a way that'll it should be easy to repair. I may email Karaya and see if they'll send a replacement part.
