1/48 - Sukhoi Su-27/30 "Flanker" family by Great Wall Hobby (GWH) - Su-27/P/UB "Flanker-B/-C", Su-30SM/MKI & MKM/MK/MKA/SME "Flanker-H" released

Thanks, guys, for the responses to my question about whether I should get an Su-27 in addition to my Su-35s.  I think exdraken's response, which included: "The Su-27 and -35 have different hight vertical tails shape, nozzles, nose cone shape, front wheels, cockpit detail, weapons and of course colors/ markings and even operators....but still it looks like a Flanker of course...." really helps me to understand the differences that would make the 2 models visually different, and all those little things seem to add up to  a new Su-27 for me 😊  

 

I can't believe how much I have been spending on models and tools and paints of late...oh well, what's the point of having money if you can't spend it on toys, right?

I still waiting for mine, cause the covid crisis, the shipping could be slow and I have really no time for building models this time, so I can wait for that.

 

No one is interrested for the Vicking? we just have the very rare and old Esci, ?

Hi,

 

Just received mine from the early morning grocer (ie dawngrocerystore on ebay).

You liked the Flanker E? You'll like that one too...

 

Cheers,

Nice!

I'd love Galaxy Models to release some masks for detail painting (I'm really a lazy bugger...).

Glad you found the Foxbot masks - I bought them for the Academy kit, but haven't got around to it yet... somehow I think my plans are changing!

This is great news!:yahoo:

Now I can stop building the Academy 1/48 Su-27 I've been working on . . . for the past TEN years!:analintruder:

 

Honestly I haven't looked at it because it's covered under a foot of dust.:fool::think:

Only one thing to do, put the Academy's UB to the trash and ordering the WGH's SUkhoi.

I haven't built a Flanker, though it's an impressive looking airplane. Is the Academy kit that bad?

The Academy kit is pretty good -for its time.... if you have one, build it! Will turn out impressive!  ( with new nozzles and cockpit that is!) If not, do not buy one! It has been surpassed in detail and size.... ;)

Also if you can overlook the fact it is more 1/50 than 1/48.
