an update of the canopy the bad news is that there is a crack on the yellow one and I screwed up the clear one :) it is looking good but I am so peace off about this crack line on the top so if someone did this tamiya 1 32 block 50 bird kit and has a spare canopy not used I will be so pleased to use it ??? :D I hate little defaults and this bothers me so much ===> my fault... during manipulation so if someone could help me out here :lol:

THKS!!! A little story on the nose cone my cat jumped on me and I drop the plane and damaged the pitotube and the front of the nose cone so on the first picture it is a redone pito + a repair front nose thanksfully it is not noticeable after the fix I use a needle that I have cut for the pito and add some tamiya epoxy to reshape it the front of the nose cone needed expoxy too at the end a lot of sanding was required to make it smooth but it worked at the end I wanted to give a perfect paint job on it and it is ok so far My wife is thinking i am being sick with the paint application

Another update !

yes 3 colors indeed I like it that way and no airbrush I use cans only I will need to think about the grey for the nose cone and it seems like it can be any grey......... more pics soon .. I hope

hello a bit of an update :)

Thks for the info Afterburner Decals Scott !!!!!! I have never use IFF on my last F-18 so maybe I will give it a go on the F-16 this time It looks quite ok on the F-16 So I will put it in and for the decals a flat clear coat will just cover correctly normaly the decal effect unless they are really thick

niceeeeeeeeeee really good job !

Are they that bad ??? :D I have spent so much money for another bird in preparation that I wanted to keep this model simple... The other bird is the 1/32 flanker with full correction from zactoman + full aires sets cockpit exhaust wheel bay...... So I have to say that my budget is really limited ... now I hope to come up soon with it thks for the help I really appreciate it

thks !! I was thinking about the 13th Fighter squadron 35th Fighter wings number 399 or the 14th .... NUMBER 886 maybe without the the AIFF it looks better not sure really...... can they have the AIFF ?? thks for the help !!

Forgot the cockpit :

HELLO I am starting the famous tamiya F-16 block 50 in 1/32 I have to say that this bird superb in term of details tamiya did a really good work engineering that bird I will do this one out of box and add no details ... some pics of the start hope you will like it It is always nice to share........ Just a question for F-16 experts : Can I put the IFF antenna ??? they are in the box but it says do not use in the manuel.. ;) it is slow...... More pics soon

Ok Chris I have just bought today another 1:32 SU-27 and trumpeter did fixe the issue on the intake only my conclusion is it suuuuuuuuuuucccckkkkkkkkkssssssss anyway :D the correction is not that good I prefer yours I have build a flanker with your combo kit and now I want a Ukrainien camo this second build on the way will need another combo set from you thks to you my flanker dream has come true

HI GUYS Just wondering if we can get one day a great SU-35 or 37 one day is there any project going one I am just in love with this bird and really wish to get to do a big one one day I have the Su-27 with zacto correction sets :D but I want the new version so bad.......... in 1/32 :D

a pitot tube is really easy to scratch build use a metalic piece and some putty I did that on a su-27 see below

hello rom no words vivement le prochain !!!!! :D

hello tamiya airspray AS series I mask a lot :D thks !!!!!

hello here is my update on my 1/32 su_27 done with zactomodels parts nose cone / air intake and canopy I post it before but did some changes on the camo enjoy and for the parts go to http://www.zactomodels.com/

Hi Rom !!! You will find it nowhere I found it hard to find matching colors so I use Tamiya colors that I liked and the camo was done from my inspiration "I use airspray AS series" By the way I liked the finish of your flanker too !!!! the one you finished early this year !!!! B) A+

thks man next one would be : TAMIYA F-16CJ block 50 in 1:32 THE KIT LOOKS AWESOME in the box !!! the best kit I ever seen I think for Su-27 It was such a pain to fix problem but ZACTOMODEL SAVED ME !!!!!!!! thks zactoman !!!!! now I have to find some times

Hey thks guys only the tomcat is brush painted I used regular paints for model "the small pots of Humbrol as I can remenber" cause it was years ago I mixed different colors and when done I mixed a little bit of flat black paint and white spirit "85%" and washed the entire plane using tissues............ and I washed it again with white spirit only once the first wash is dry this wash must be really really gentle and it kind of flat the paint on the tomcat and for the weathering I used a pencil and washed it out by using tissues For the others I used tamiya spray cause I do not have an ai

and my hornets

hello guys thought it would be nice to share some results of my builts 1/32 scale hope you guys enjoy first the F14 brush paint !!!!!!!! then the su-27

hello nice work but do you know that the flanker you doing is not accurate you should have use zactomodels parts for the 1/32 SCALE just check out on his web site my frnd http://www.zactomodels.com/ but you did a pretty nice work !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A+++++++
