Chox Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 That helicopter was brilliant - how ugly can you get?! Every time I walked past I stopped for another look! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sukoi Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Anyone know the story behind the Su-17 in the top right-hand corner of the first picture in post 6? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flankerman Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Anyone know the story behind the Su-17 in the top right-hand corner of the first picture in post 6? Sukhoi, It was done by my fellow Soviet Aircraft SIG member, Gordon. He tends to do the more weird & wonderful stuff - bordering on the 'What If'. The single-seat MiG-AT, MiG-3 floatplane etc are also his - as is the Tu-22 'Fighter'. I'll give him a call and try to find out for you - but it's probably just a vague mention of such a scheme, or a grainy photo in some magazine. That's all it takes to start him building these flights of fancy :unsure: Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sukoi Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 flights of fancy ;) Sounds alot like me, Looking forward to hear what he has to say. Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flankerman Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Sounds alot like me, Looking forward to hear what he has to say.Cheers I've just come off the phone with him....... he got quite excited that someone was interested in one of his models (he doesn't get out much) Apparently it's just a vehicle on which he was trying out a new painting technique - it is totally ficticious. There is a discussion and build details on the What If website - but I did a quick search and didn't find it........ Hope you have more luck. Cheers Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sukoi Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Thanks Flankerman, I was exited to see his model, so I understand. I'll will give the forum a look. Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bonehammer73 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 (edited) Apparently it's just a vehicle on which he was trying out a new painting technique - it is totally ficticious. It looks a lot like the camo on that Fitter that was bought by the Luftwaffe. Now that's an interesting model... althought now it might be indistinguishable from the Fitters that were inherited from the Luftstreitkräfte.
