Fuad Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Good day, everybody! It's my next model of legendary flying training deck Po-2 from Ukrainian 'ICM". 44
Reini78 Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 killing me again with your awesome 1/72 work....
Alpha Delta 210 Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Excellent result in such a small scale. I always enjoy the sight (and sound) of the Po-2 at the Shuttleworth Collection's air shows.
djos Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 I done one from KP and was proud. Looking at your model....now i am only satisfied. Joking, your one will be for sure inspiration for my next PO2 and i am sure that other guys will also have it in mind. Details, rigging, colors,,,,excellent model BRAVO! Best regards Djordje
Knight_Flyer Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 An excellent build. What I like about this one is there's hardly any weathering to it - just a neat fresh looking paint finish that still looks great. 1
WildeSau75 Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Great build - you nailed it. Cheers, Michael
RidgeRunner Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 I see you are maintaining high standards, Fuad ;). Simply stunning Martin
k5054nz Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Utterly beautiful. The best Po-2 model I've ever seen, and it's 1/72?!
Roger Holden Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Nice to see the beautiful finish and restrained weathering. Some of your earlier models were too heavily weathered, but the recent ones have been perfect.... 1 1

Some of your earlier models were too heavily weathered, but the recent ones have been perfect.... In fact, weathering for the airplane model is a kind of compliment to this unit . It means that the plane lived and worked for a long time. Unfortunately, Soviet aircraft could not boast of survivability. The resource of the best Soviet engine, for example, was only 50 hours of flight. And this Po-2, when it was shooted - literally burned in just a minute and a half! So quickly that the crew did not even take parachutes with them. They were useless, moreover, they flew at extremely low altitudes. Almost no some story about survive when German airplane attacked Po-2. Because no crew survived this attack. But thousands of people bravely fought on these planes and died in it(. 1
72modeler Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 I agree- the best Po-2 build in any scale, and it looks more like 1/48 or 1/32 than 1/72! Beautiful work, as usual, Fuad- can't wait to see what comes next! Mike
Terry1954 Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Absolutely fantastic. 1/72 modelling at its best. Well done ...... ! Terry
stevehnz Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Beautiful job on that Fuad, as I've come to expect. . That is a wonderful colour scheme that aircraft carries, your work enhances it still more. Steve.
SoftScience Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Hi, Faud. Would you be willing to do a step by step guide to one of your future builds? The crispness of detail you achieve is one of my goals in modeling, but I don't always know the best way to achieve it.
