Koralik64 Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 I would like to present you the model that I prepared for the model exhibition. I chose a fairly difficult to build model, Su-25 Frogfoot A Trumpeter 1:32 Model I made straight from the box + Pitot from Master. I decided to make this model very heavily exploited. This plane is a work horse in the Russian Air Force, so this look is the norm. I add a lot of photos on a light and dark background, I hope they will please you. 43 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold55 Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Excellent job! Having seem lots of pictures of the Su-25 in operation I think you have captured the brute perfectly, down to the fading and worn insignia. Thanks for posting these. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FortyEighter Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Another excellent model - the worn finish really suits this aircraft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepureness Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 I'm obsessed with Russian aircraft and the Frogfoot is one of my favorite looking aircraft. A fantastic piece of work, a masterclass of a build. Legendary Can I ask, where the decals from the box? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stalal Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Extremely well done. Bravo!! I have a very beaten down scheme in mind for a Middle East air force Su-22. This inspires me further to build that one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
