I posted the in progress in "In progress" section. You can have a look at that post. Thanks for your comments.

:D... I received the same comments in VN, but given limited of time due to the Russian airplane campaign, I could not rescribe the panel lines. Moreover, I don't like Russian plane that much to rescribe :D

Continue Cheer!!!

Hi guys! It is finally completed. Overall, it was a pleasure building this kit.

Thanks for your comments. The project has gone smoothly. Next come the wash. I use Mig Dark Wash. In my opinion, this product is perfect. I just had to do one time, whereas using artist paint would take a couple of time. http://i1230.photobucket.com/albums/ee492/shogunvn/DSC02674.jpg' alt='DSC02674.jpg'> Attaching the exhaust to the body. To be continued

Painting I chose the "4x" squadron. Color used were: Flanker Pale Blue for underside, Flanker medium blue, Blue Gray and self mixed Blue for top side. Next come the decal To be continued

Hi guys I have started with this project for around 1 month. The kit is 1/72 Su-34. Generally, it is an acceptable kit in term of fit (I don't care much about the accuracy side). The cockpit Assembling the fuselage Primed and pre-shading

8 pylons? you mean 4 on the wing and 8 under the fuselage? If yes, I have those how I can them to you? I am living in VN. If you take care of the shipping, I am willing to give them to you for free. :D

I myself prefer using Mr.Color Super Clear Gloss. It is very tough.

I believe for Avenger the cockpit color is Yellow Chromate.

I am sorry. "Tail rotor ski" what is it??? Is it the hook below the tail rotor? I was stupied enough to purchase a T80 1/72 with the intention of putting it inside the cargo bay. I have to look for something else to put in. Is an Ural possible?

It took me 3 hours to get the gear stick together. I had to use both Tam Glue and superclue. Another warning for those who want to build this, the texture of the body will cause shivering to some decals. Flat coat can only solve the problem with some not all of shivering decal. The two round things (I don't know what they are called) are shiny right??? I forgot one thing. For those who can not get access to Alclad, the perfect subtitute is Mr.Color Super Metal. Its Super Iron and Silver Next are perfect. When they are dry, you can mask and wash with no problem.

I have pretty bad news for you guys. The gear is suck... I spent 1 hour to get it stable for 1 side. The question is "can they bear the weight of the model?" for a long time??? SO after market guy, PLS COME UP WITH THE METAL GEAR....

From what I saw from the sprue shot, I believe Revell and Zvezda are same kit. The only differences are the shark mouth and the PRICE!!!!! I think Revell cost more than 1.5 times Zvezda. Is it worthy for just a shark mouth??? As for airbrush, you guys won't believe me. I use a dirty cheap airbrush (around 20US). After painting, I normally use abbrasive 2000 with water to smoothen the surface. I believe this is a must if you use MM paint. It tends to be very flat even if you put gloss in. For this model, I tried post shading which I never tried before. The result was acceptable, I think :D

I usually chose Small Packet with Tracking unless I am forced to use Parcel by the system for BIG kit :D. I never tried surface before. For Small Package with tracking, it normally reaches my country from 2-3 weeks. If the item is shipped form third party such as Poland, it takes quite long maybe a month or more. PS: As a modeller, none of us don't need anything right away, am I right?
