nikos Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 Thank you guys. Yes the kit has problems. The manual has ambiguities in the small pieces. The wheels compartment together with the engines compartment is a Chinese tragedy in terms of application. The outer parts with the inner ones do not have a good application. It has two parts for machine guns turret (I dont know why) It has nt the antennas (front-rear) Pilots are huge like gorillas and the position of the main pilot is low in the cockpit. I Had in past the same model of Airfix and that was rough. It seems that this model has been a design curse for a long time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booty003 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 That is a very impressive build and finish Nikos - I know only too well what a pig of a kit that this is. You have beaten it into a very smart model - well done mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikos Posted April 11, 2020 Author Share Posted April 11, 2020 Thank you Booty . It is as you say a "pig" kit. I choose the Nigerian camo because I like the camo planes. The greys and silvers are commonplace: Especially the greys loose the half of modelling charm Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’got one in the stash and that’s where it’s going to stay ! Wulfman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Headroom Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 That is very colourful and well built. It seems you had a bit of an ordeal in assembly. Do you mind me asking what paints you used. I may get round to that Nigerian Jaguar one day. Trevor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vultures1 Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 That's a great camo scheme and well done for getting such a good result with the Trumpeter Beagle - well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikos Posted April 11, 2020 Author Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) Thank you guys. Trevor I used Humbrol enamels No 121, 78, 116 and semi gloss varnish . Interior Agama light blue and desert yellow RLM for wheels appartment covers. The cockpit Agama light blue. For bomber pilot appartment Italeri acrylic flat green. I used aluminium foil from nescafe metal box for interior bomber appartment . And Agama light ghost grey for machines air intakes.

nikos Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 The reason I preferred this camouflage is to balance the sleek design line of this aircraft. In addition, it escapes the classic colors of the Soviets for this type. Some African aircraft are of particular interest in terms of color Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
