InFlames Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I haven't posted anything in this section for a while but I've decided that this is about to change. Brand new GWH kit of the Su-27UB in 1:48 and from my initial inspection, I am quite certain you can make it into outstanding looking model without use of any aftermarket products. Progress is slow as I have a bunch of exams at work in the near future and parenting and other hobbies take a toll, but still, I am gaining momentum with this build nevertheless. First completed piece is front gear well - I am doing an early version of the UB so I've chosen the open bay with all the piping and structure visible but GWH provides a closed well for later versions as well. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to finish the main wheel wells though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InFlames Posted January 30, 2021 Author Share Posted January 30, 2021 During studying for the exams, (this old head of mine doesn't suck knowledge in as it used to and has to be constantly beat into submission :D) I managed to do a few relaxation modelling sessions and here's the result so far. Aft cockpit mostly painted up. Front cockpit painted and washed. And side by side comparison. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InFlames Posted March 29, 2021 Author Share Posted March 29, 2021 Real life is interfering with my modelling so I am not progressing as fast as I would like to. Luckily, the kit is not fighting me back and here she is - for the first time the plastic pieces joined into a beautiful Flanker shape. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
