Su-35S Flanker GWH 1:48


Recommended Posts

My last job,
This is the new model Great Wall Hobby, scale Su-35S 1:48.

It's a really good model with beautifully made details and well-matched.
Made as always straight from the box.

 

I made this model for the exhibition, trying to best reflect the surfaces of burns in the engines.
In my opinion, the basis for making a good model from the Su-27, 30, 33, 35 family is the good appearance of the metal surface.

Another super build. Particularly like the "blueing" on the hot metal areas - perhaps could have done with a little more brown/tan/bronze tones? Not sure why but this kit has been criticised for the exhausts but yours look convincing.

 

Cheers

Thank you all for warm words.
I received private messages from several people asking how I am painting the area around engines and nozzles.

Unfortunately, I do not use products from the modeling palette so I do not know if my way will help you in your work.

If so please write me in the topic, I will try to show you step by step how I do it.

Now a few revised photos because those at the beginning of the post are too bright

What a stunner !

I totally agree with you about metal rendering and it's the same when you build a F-4 or a F-101.

Anyway , your Flanker is (almos ) perfect ! 

 Congrats to you !

Beautiful work. GWH seems to be making very nice models. I have yet to buy a product. I am now tempted to pick up their MiG 29's. 

 

Thanks for posting. :)

 

In my opinion, the GWH model is the best MiG-29 model on the market.

Thanks. My better half saw your post. Now I am being watched by a hawk.

 

Oh no, she saw this post!

Thanks for the information. I will again be broke on Monday. :)
