robinpu Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 (edited) After countless learning on Haneto's posts. I have decided to learn the tricks and start my own Su-27UB. Starting with the ejection seat first! 2023-02-21 2023-03-22 Another day on continuing the cockpit. I must say I am surprised by the detail of this kit. GWH did a fantastic job of making sure the decal can fit perfectly on the panel. With some help with softer and heat gun, it can sit nicely with raised detail. This is better than the Quinto Studio in my opinion since printing always has pixel ink marks and blurry boundaries.

Ad-4N Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 That pilot is the wrong scale for those seats. Plus it looks kinda cartoony. 🙃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robinpu Posted April 23, 2023 Author Share Posted April 23, 2023 This weekend is all about the exhaust! After painting, I use both clear acrylic paint, pastel, and ink pen to create complex burn effects for inner and outer exhaust. I do feel like the internal side wall has too much burned residual, which might affect the overall aircraft weathering and aging. We shall see once I start the fuselage painting. Before and after the burning effect 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robinpu Posted May 3, 2023 Author Share Posted May 3, 2023 Working slowly this week due to heavy workload from the daytime and I need to rest in after hours. Only manage to work 1-2 hours every day on this Flanker. While I am waiting for some painting masks, I decided to use the 3D-printed landing gear from D&W to enhance the details of this build. My plan is to work on the small parts first and go back to the main fuselage. The details are amazing on these printed parts and I will definitely use these more often. Doing test fit. They fit perfectly. Painted and the first layer of weathering is done. Still need to add some weathering effects later. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
