the MDman Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 (edited) In 2017 the Flanker returned to RIAT. With 58 Blue the Ukrainians gave the spectators an absolutely amazing display of this legend from the Cold War. The kit is the Eduard Su-27B Flanker Limited Edition, with a load of extra resin. The digital camouflage was applied with use of the Begemot masks. Not an easy thing to do and with lots of touch-ups. The build started late 2017, so it took me about 2,5 years to finish this beast.

Spitfire31 Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Sensational! Also a real life illustration of the word 'masochism'. 😉 Kind regards, Joachim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_alfisti_ Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Very nice work. I love the Ukrainian Pixel-Scheme. Will do the twin seater oneday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in a shed Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Wonderful job. The pixilation effect has been captured immaculately and the build itself done to the highest standards. Well done indeed. Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan B Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I love it. I have plans to do a similar scheme with a 2 seater but have not been brave enough to start it yet. Duncan B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sluffer77 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Fantastic 😎. I love the Ukrainian schemes, but they’re not a scheme I would ever contemplate Replicating. Hats off to you for taking on such an incredible task and to such a impressive standard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Amazing! Your hard work paid off bigtime! I also love the pilot's helmet (I think that's what it is) sitting on the canopy sill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's a helmet. It comes with the Eduard kit as a resin part. I love that kind of little details 🤓 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightningboy2000 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Fantastic mind bending work painting with those masks. I've got some of their masks for the Ukraine Su-24's and it looks like a confusing tricky business masking each colour layer. Just can't get my head around it at the moment!
