tim dix Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Hi, Id like to throw my hat in with a Czech and Slovak air force su25, with special frog markings on the tail. Hope this is ok. No Idea how to do a link, but I think I have a pic of it somewhere, I will dig it out. Cheers Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter W Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Tim, I bought the Eduard Su-25 to build that very plane. I went to Boscombe in 92 and have since wanted to build it and the Mig 29 at some time. I keep looking at the camouflage pattern though and putting it back in the pile. Good luck with the build, I will watch with interest. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxbat Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 You're a braver man than I am with that camo but the results should be great. Looking forward to it. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim dix Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 Cheers for the encouragment chaps, really hope I can do it justice. Does anyone know what the kit is like to build? I've never seen a review of it. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim dix Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 (edited) OK, While im waiting for my hawk to dry, I thought I would make a start on this. The seat, bless, is nothing like the real thing, not even close, so using the basic L shape and sides, im trying to tart it up a bit. Im not to worried about the back, as you wont see much, and I will add belts,cushions and ejection handles tmrw. hope your builds are going well, im looking forward to seeing the 'digital Migs'.

tim dix Posted April 30, 2011 Author Share Posted April 30, 2011 Just a quick update, ive painted the cockpit, but im not going OTT as I cant open the hood anyway. I still have to put the belts on. Cheers Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoftScience Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Tim. Is the texture on the rear bulkhead part of the kit, or did you do that yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim dix Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share Posted May 11, 2011 Hello mate, its part of the kit, just painted and dirty wash applied. I have no idea if it is accurate or not, I would be a little dubious, as the seat was totally off, but nothing that cant be improved on.

Cheers Tim I am sorry guys, due to splitting up with my wife recently, I have not been able to complete this one, when things have settled down, I will try to complete it (I have also managed to lose the seat I built in the process). All your efforts are amazing, I love all the migs! Cheers Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
