Gazontipede Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 That is one seriously spectacular shilo! I've always had a bit of a thing for these birds. They look so purposeful and menacing. Their sleek, almost fighter-like looks belie their sheer size as well, the damn things are really quite massive! Gorgeous work. I wish it were mine! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

replicant Posted May 31, 2018 Author Share Posted May 31, 2018 Hello mates , i nearly fell from my chair, so many posts! Thank you all that you like it! The fuselage is heavily changed to get the coke bottle pattern realistic. Lengthened 3mm and thinned by almost 1 cm at about cg! 3rd crew member window retrofitted ( omitted in kit) and and and. Wings are twisted down, i broke them twice by doing that bending, ups! is no easy build even for a experienced modeller. Therefore there are so few finished. Cheers, Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry1954 Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 That is quite simply stunning and so very realistic. One of the best soviet aircraft models I have seen, and they are VERY challenging to finish this way. Well done indeed. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdsvidioman Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Very very nice build. I have one waiting but I doubt it will look as good as that when I get to doing it. Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
