Peter Marshall Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Eduard's rebox of the Zvezda kit with some PE Slightly different from normal, work starts with the Wings then finish off the wheel wells once boxed in with some mud / grease The starts in the fuselage sides So far it's a nice kit, but somewhat overly complex - it is however zvezda plastic so very soft but has almost complete interior.

Peter Marshall Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 A bit more done today, the starboard side of the fuselage. The clear parts are a bit of a nightmare to fit but done now Then closed up the fuselage Peter 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reini78 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Did you use plastic glue or something else for the undernose clear part? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then ran some gator glue around to complete the process. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Marshall Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 Today - Paint ! First preshade Then out with the Hataka Lacquer Paint set then on with the Paint, followed by a clear coat I'm not entirely convinced by the colours - they seem a little light, but we'll see Peter 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learstang Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Brilliant-looking Peshka you have there! Now you need the Xuntong Tu-2 to keep her company. Regards, Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the Gunze Colours called out by Eduard but can't remember the numbers - the only difference is that I used the gloss version of the grey because I had that handy, and then just matted it down afterwards. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Marshall Posted January 20, 2019 Author Share Posted January 20, 2019 Bit more done today - first added the exhaust covers and staining Then unmasked and polished the canopies, and built and fitted the resin props (which aren't great being honest ) Peter 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rui Silva Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Hi Peter, Great work on the "Peshka", I have the same kit and I'm following your work with interest. I think that green colour is a bit much too light and "greenish", I would choose something more "Olive Drab" in tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Marshall Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share Posted January 26, 2019 Well it's done now - Fitted the wheels and gear doors, weathered the wheels, and filtered the greens with some sepia oil. Better photo's to follow when it's not raining Peter 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
