I'm calling this finished, i could maybe spend another week or so fettling this, but I'm reasonably happy with how she's turned out in the end, the eagle eyed out there will notice i closed the bomb bay, i had to do this to save the model being smashed to smithereens:P, my blunder, to all who have responded, cheers for the input and comments throughout the build it really did keep me going on this when i could have filed it on the shelf many times,now im looking forward to building a su24 to put along side it ,I'll try and do a better job, 

Thanks again 

Glynn

Ps, its a big old model ill get some full piccies in the gallery tomorrow, theres barely enough room for a glass of wine for me and mrs hewy at the little table its on:ner:

well done Glynn, she looks awesome!!! :thumbsup:

 

Know all too well how bad the HB model is you've done a fantastic job on her, I'm especially impressed with the open canopy. lack of time and sheer terror :D stopped me from going that far, good on ya for doing it and doing it well!

 

Glad you could join us for the build, I hope it wasn't too painful, now you can sit back and enjoy that wine!

 

I'm with you on the Su-24, have already got that one all planned, have the decals & masks plus all the Complete Zip resin correction sets for the Trumpy beast! :D

Cheers rich, only a bit painfull ,shame really is a nice kit in places,but let down in others,and I'm still glad of the experience, I've been looking at the su 24 correction sets and they add nearly as much again as i paid for the kit ,,trumpy boss strikes again,why dont we just stick to tamiya,:P cheers

That is a beauty Glynn, amazing job! The work on the canopy really paid off, loads of details and loads of weapons, just superb!

The canopy ground me down, i was a bit tentative when i demasked it,a large heavy object was close to hand;),in the end i am pleased with the final result ,got to find space for it now  ,cheers david

Looks great Glynn, looks good with the open canopy doors showing off those amazing seats. You'll no doubt be feeling the same relief to get it done and out the way as I felt!

 

I too have a Trumpeter Su-24 with KZ resin add on's, unofficial mini group build anyone?!

Sudan's examples look stunning in the desert scheme but nobody does decals for them yet. The Algerian ones are very similar which could be an option. Ok, you have the summer to recover and then it'll be Fencer time!😉
