I finally pulled the trigger on the ICM kit just now, it should be a few weeks before it shows up from Poland. so the question is who makes the most accurate paints for the SEA camouflage? I last built something in SEA camo about 20 years ago and used xtraciolour and the 2 greens basically blended right into each other. tia

well isn't that interesting timing

I have been waiting for the Annetra kit for what seems like ever. and I feel it would be the best kit of all these. AMK for all their dodgy practices were master mold makers, and the community was more than willing to assist with reference material. hopefully the Trumpeter kit will not be as flawed as many of their other kits and I can finally build the Mi=17Mtv I flew in.

that's not a MAX, its an NG. the winglets on the MAX are more square.

Jim decesare. sorry I thought most people knew about his abrasive personality here. he frequents several FB groups generally being a jackass

I asked a question about MRP on FB a few years ago and mentioned that Hobby world was constantly out of the stuff. I was immediately jumped on by the likes of Jim D coming to Mr. Boles defense. did you get your FB account spammed and life threatened? luckily there are other sources for MRP now

I have found that the french Nato Green is a lot lighter than say the German version. AK real colours are a real close match to the NATO 3 tone used by the French

WOW great job.

I had no problems with either of mine. big issue with a couple of steps in the instructions though

I think they are using Hi Lok fasteners which do not have a screwdriver recess in the head. but will look like a rivet from the outside. looking at the 20 year old paint on some of our 767's, the paint often will come off the rivets leaving a nice line of bare metal fasteners.

lookin good Jon

I think waiting for the Zvezda kit is the best option. that minicraft kit is garbage. this is the best shot I have of a 57 main gear right now. I'll try to get a good shot tomorrow morning If I have a chance. If you need anythingelse specific for a 57 or 67 I might be able to help

if you find an stl file, I'll print it for you.

sprue brothers. I attempted 3 orders in the last year, 2 were cancelled outright and the other sat in the packing dept. for several weeks before I cancelled it.
