Ryan Hothersall Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Good news as there aren’t many kits of this important variant of the Mi-24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kotey Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Actually only one last sprue is new, all other - same as in Mi-24V/VP model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fulcrum@ Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) Ok Homebe, you show us all sprues, but it's better to show the new one, the most interesting ! Edited January 8, 2018 by Fulcrum@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kotey Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) Decal from box - Zvezda will show in next few days - its design just finished and coordinated, its will be comprehensive decal form modern Russia operation helicopters, three marking scheme. But a little later Begemot will release big decal for Mi-24P, as did it before for Mi-24V/VP - it will be something about 30-40-50 markings, i'm work about it just now.

RODH2 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Just throwing it out there......I'm not seeing much discrepancy in rear fuselage length between the Zvezda sprue shots above, and the much maligned 1/48th Monogram offering. Does anyone have any thoughts on that?? (Off topic, I know, but it's something I have pondered on for awhile). Perhaps the fin leading edge angle is marginally different.....!?

I'm not sure I understand your post. You don't see much difference in length between the 1/72 offering and the 1/48 kit. Do you want to run that past me again?

Andrey I hope there's a good selection of African, Asian & South American markings in this sheet, otherwise we'd better have a second sheet to cover the gaps.

Taking SCALE into account, the Monogram tail boom doesn't seem shorter than the Zvezda offering......The Monogram tail rotor clashes with the main Rotor and rear Elevator "wings', but it seems the rotors are too long, as opposed to the tail boom being too short, as has been stated many times. Anyone have any thoughts on this......? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW - on the forthcoming Begemot sheet will be "A" versions depicted above? Cyprus - early and late scheme, but this helicopter in modeller look is mix from Mi-24P and Mi-35M. And yes, i'm initially going to make three timelines of Mi-24s decals - early (A and D), mid (V, VP) and late (P), so, third decals (for A and D) will be too, probably in 2019. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I have Zvezda Mi-35M and soon Mi-24P this will not be a problem ... just decals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverkite Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Now I wonder if Zvezda is doing a D too or Eduard will be so kind to release the resin bits from their Limited Edition as aftermarket conversion Luigi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kotey Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 As i know Zvezda's havn't plans about Mi-24D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
