Stathis Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Very nice camo! What colours did you use? I have built an RBF converting the nose of RBT from ICM. Is that an ICM model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 looks great! any issues with the conversion? did you use the cockpit dials as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davmarx Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Wow, a coloured Foxbat... beautiful, much more than the grey one to my eyes. Great job, I'll wait for the next step. So RBF had the late style airbrake and the lips on the air intakes, interesting news for me, I'm not an expert around Foxbats, thanks. Ciao.

Is that an ICM model? - The kit is the ICM one and I used AKAN paint ref: 63013 - 63024 - 63096 - interior green H 58 wiith a drop of brown from Hobby colors.The underside is the standard Foxbat/Foxhound grey 13 hours ago, exdraken said: looks great! any issues with the conversion? did you use the cockpit dials as well? - I've used the CWS dials after coating white te back side it very well matches the kit board. For the nose ,no particular issue, just thin the inside enough to fit the kit fuselage joint, the masking tapes for the dialelectrics panel are top fitting.....but take care when you remove them they may peel off the paint... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stathis Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 The nose of the RBT is different from the RBF. I had to fill some places with putty and rescribe some new panels to my build. Do you have any photos of RBF with the same nose as RBT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The RBF has the similarly shaped nose , without the camera of course but new dielectrical panels These are for an RBT camera windows - This one may not be an RBF but still another version owing to the size of the dielectrical panel, but the shape of the nose is a look alike - These are for an RBF. To be added very few if not none RBT were camouflaged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is too late to rectify this as I have no more correct logo and its requires some suplementary painting job always risky on a finished model. I think I will live with this.

Previously, I did not pay attention to the number, although I have a model and a decal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately you made a mistake with one color, in camouflage there should not be a gray color.

Uncle Uncool Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Ah, a cheating Monsieur Jean-Michel, huh...? How's it going, my mate? Way too chilly up there in Tulle? You've got a taste for the Russian subjects, don't you? How come there wasn't any WIP right from the start of your build, as you've always spoilt us by doing before, sir? Yeh, those correction bits by Stenka are just awesome. Great to see Mr Nazarov along for the ride! That's a great-looking RBF. Merry Christmas, J-M! Cheers, Unc2 P.S.: Hi there, Rom & Werner!
