Hewy Posted December 29, 2020 Author Share Posted December 29, 2020 Finally got some time on this to do a few bits, missiles painted ,decaled and glossed, a time consuming and a laborious task only a light wash to do, pilot is finished and in (figure painting is not a strong point) and I've done a little more on the engine area,theres still more i want to try but i had to seal the area wiith gloss as some paint came off through handling, I'll touch up those areas in the next stage I may fit the khibini pods yet I'm undecided (also i may change the scheme to the standard camo) Cheers all Might be ok under a heavily tinted canopy Still a bit to do including the access panels need various shades of silver 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modelling minion Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 That looks great Glynn, really like the various metallic tones you have on the engine area. Hope you had a good Christmas mate and weren't caught up in Mike's covid catching net. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks fellas, col i find painting and decaling missiles akin to individual track links on a armour kit , but i persevered with the backing of a nice bottle of single malt jura , it helped immensely, just a dash of a wash to do, Cheers craig ,we had a steady one here ,had my old aunt round and the outlaws , hope yours went as good as can be expected ,Luckily i slipped mikes net, i got my xmas presents, to me, from ,,,, me , in there in the week before , Been on it today ( no not the jura) got the top side engine area about done , changed a lot from the photo ,and also I've found that i have no tamiya smoke left for canopy tinting , 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very quiet Christmas has been the result, I'm allowed out for the first time tomorrow. Have an urge to go to as many shops as possible before we go into what will basically be another lockdown from Thursday.

Hewy Posted January 16, 2021 Author Share Posted January 16, 2021 I've finally found time to get stuck into the su-35, as i mentioned before I've decided on a change of scheme to the su-35 standard camo, the begemot decal sheet arrived from russia, (just before the current brexit blockade which has curtailed a big order of accessories also from russia for future projects ) also the 12mm acrillic rod for poking up its tail pipes still hasn't arrived Still some details to add but i wanted to seal the paint up before too much masking, So far Cheers all 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modelling minion Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Thats looking rather smart Glynn. I really like the colours, looks like our Russian friends have finally got round to painting their aircraft in the colours used by some US aggressor schemes. Lovely smooth looking coat of paint. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dansk Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 This is heading towards being a superb result Glynn. Really nice job. I’m loving those missiles and pylons. Makes all the difference when they are done nicely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
