What an impressive model! Very meticulously detailed and with a beautiful finish.

1:72 Trumpeter Su-24M Fencer D Ukraine
janman replied to Ryan Hothersall's topic in The Display Case
That's a cool camo! I've had similar experiences with Authentic Decals in the past. Unfortunate that the problem is still there. -
I'm building one too (for like years...) and given the overwhelming evidence I'll leave the aerodynamic surfaces on my MiG neutral. This seems to be the normal situation, as boring as it may sound. But I think one can always come up with a story how the surfaces on your build might be differently since that can actually happen in the world anyway!

That's just a crazy kit, unbelievable! Awesome work, especially with the instrument panel. Figure painting is an area I can't master but yours look very gorgeous.

Great work! I only now found this thread but will be following closely. It will be interesting to see your solutions. I've been toying with idea of building one myself for years now. I was thrilled when I found out there was a new 1/72 kit available, especially of the LM. But given the facts that these seem to rather rare and hard to get plus you'll have to pay a hefty price for them I've still not acquired any of these kits. I'm also aware they are far from perfect and your project further underlines this. My original vision was to show a finished LM with 1/72 Tomcat

An interesting build! As an Flogger enthusiast I'm very eager to see if this is finally "the definitive" MiG-23 we've always been craving - at least in this scale.

This looks very promising!

A special kind of aircraft and so nicely done!

I'm a rather active FB user and I'm also a member of a couple of model related FB groups. One is run by a good friend of mine, but I rarely if ever participate in discussion. I have decided to draw a line there because I very strongly believe that a forum like this would be a much better way to discuss than FB is. I really enjoyed visiting the ARC forums and I still do, but it is a fact that finding a good and active discussion seems harder and harder these days. The smaller sub-forums are dying and it seems the traffic is low everywhere else as well. Ironically subjects like this

So, even though I personally had different favorites along the six year long very thorough program, I guess this was the AF generals' choice from the start. I've of course followed the process from the beginning and since the HX program has been labeled probably the most rigorous fighter procurement program one can imagine where every possible aspect of the contenders' abilities have been evaluated against the demands of the Finnish AF, I'm inclined to believe they made the right choice. I mean there was only one candidate that fully represents the future while one of the planes, Gripen, was a

Hasegawa and Hobby Boss F/A-18's + a Kinetic one!
janman replied to Thadeus's topic in In-Progress Pics
Whatever it is, it's also very entertaining and a great joy to watch. Even if the subject itself wasn't one's cup of tea. 🙂 An interesting thread!- 44 replies

I'm very confident we'll have a winner here. Good news.

Thanks, never tried a dio before (apart from the childhood experiments...), but that's definitely something I should try.

Yeah, I'm aware of the kit and was pretty surprised when it was announced. But yeah, this might be the only easy way to get Keke's car even tough the particular ride never suited his driving style.

Sure looks much bigger than 1/32! Even the engine bay seems busy enough. I really like your work!

Great Wall Hobby G.W.H L4824 1/48 Su-27 “Flanker B” Heavy Fighter
janman replied to haneto's topic in Jet Modeling
Now that is hardcore. -
1/72 scale? I've had several of their Soviet weapon sets and I do remember the talk back then (when I was still using them somewhat regularly) that many of the weapons truly are underscale. Some missiles definitely are.
-
Oh, this sounds so familiar. Actually, this sounds just like Trumpeter! I've had the exact vibes with some of their aircraft kits.
-
Nice progress with your Ford! Good to hear it's a nice kit too since I've always loathed the box cover art. 🙂 That alternator is a gem!

Neither have I. The closest possibility for such a situation would be something a la Su-17 or MiG-27 where some designator pod (like "vyuga") for AG missiles would be hanging on the other side and a rocket pod for balance on the opposite side.
