Reini78 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 #18/2017 My dad´s newest completion, the Xuntong kit, painted with Tamiya Nato Black and Vallejo Model Air A-24m Green. EZ Line for the aerials. During construction the balance weight on the fin tip broke off, had to repair it with some scratch stuff. Also the landing light is scratch, kit has only a hole in the wing. Build thread here Model shows an aircraft of the Baltic Fleet, 1st Guards Maritime Torpedo Aviation Regiment, summer/fall 1944.

bruce bay Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Lovely! Really nice finish, especially on the black underside, lots of interest there! May I ask - about how big is the kit? I quite fancy doing one, but was worried it would be huge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you tell me what the attachments on the gun turret are? was asked that before and have still no clue for what the "bunny ears" are, maybe some kind of support because the upper part of the turret is a hatch, but it doesn´t open that wide.. here you have an interesting vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TKXbYBtPTU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
