Samuraiwarrior Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Hi Faud, Well that's a great model. Super finish, nicely weathered and faded. One to be proud of. Thanks for sharing Kevin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bentwaters81tfw Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Superb job. I have one of these in the stash. If it turns out half as good as this I will be happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Schilhart Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 The Pe-2 is a very elegant aircraft and you've done her justice! The marbled color modulation on top surfaces breaks up the monochrome scheme nicely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woody37 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Gorgeous Fuad, as always! How did you do the tonal variations in the green paintwork? So subtle but incredibly effective 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuad Posted September 19, 2022 Author Share Posted September 19, 2022 6 hours ago, woody37 said: How did you do the tonal variations in the green paintwork? So subtle but incredibly effective I used two shades of green and special stain stencils. First I covered everything with a light green "Russian Green" from Gunze, then added a little black to it. To get a thin and not rough layer, I constantly use a retarder (slower drying agent). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cger Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Another fantastic model, congratulations Fuad ! I am amazed by how well you managed to use these stain stencils. I tried several times with the ones from Mig Ammo, and I never got something convincing. Maybe I was to impatient ! have a nice day, Christian. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomasz Gronczewski Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Fuad, his is just gorgeous! I love the subtle tonal differences in the paint finish. And also I am amazed how you managed to blend canopy edges into fuselage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the subtle tonal differences in the paint finish. And also I am amazed how you managed to blend canopy edges into fuselage. The set (zvezda) as a whole is quite good and there were no problems with docking the canopy with the fuselage. Often, to fix such problems, I use acrylic putty, which is wiped with isopropyl alcohol like this one. The problem was with the headlight (it is larger than the seat). I glued it, then grinded and polished. Long live the brave Poland people! 😊 Edited September 19, 2022 by Fuad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cduckworth Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Some of us build models while you build pieces of artwork. Very convincing finish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomasz Gronczewski Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Fuad, so it was acrylic putty what did the job. The result is extremely good. Long live and highest regards for proud Azeri people! :). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jean Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Hi Fuad, as it has already been said by our esteemed and talented colleagues, you just produced another art work. So congratulations are in order! This paint scheme is fantastic, and is the one I chose several decades ago, when I built the 1/72 Airfix kit. And that is where the comparison will stop!!! Once again, congrats. JR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
