Gary F Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Hi Janne, Great build and finish! Enjoyed your detailing and tutorials along the way, too. I really enjoy how you incorporate many of the small and 'everyone knows how to do that' details or techniques into your WIP's that add so much to enjoying modeling :) What's coming next from you? For me, as some others have mentioned, the urge to do the Sufa has finally pushed to the top while watching your build. regards, Gary F Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I´m realy happy to hear that, I wasn´t too sure about putting all those "basic level specials" in or not..... but I know that I would have loved to get a collection of tutorials of all those things ppl almost seem to take for granted. Now I got the the info piece by piece instead and I have slowly evolved my build skills over the years. SO I´m very happy with the feed back of the tutorials :D I´ve already started my next build, a Su-7 BKL! and that´s a far less ambitious project! Janne, it was a pleasure following this build! It turned out great. The pics are just as good as the model too. Big Thanx Raptor! The pics are alright....Think I got the color setting wrong tho...it´s kind of pale in the pics and the green disapeared. Great looking Sufa! That paint scheme is stunningly wicked too! :) Thanx Qian for cheering me through the build! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jocke Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) I just had to watch this again... It is so beautiful Janne!! :) / Jocke Edited February 10, 2010 by Jocke Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doose Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Aigore, Very nice build and a model to be proud of!!! I enjoyed your WIP and am finishing my own Sufa now (Hase 1/48th). When you said that your pledge gloss coat cracked, what did you mean?? I have never heard of this before and am curious. I have had some problems with Future coatings on other models, namely that it produced a sand paper like finish....ugh. I now thin it with windex glass cleaner and that seems to do the trick!! Anyway, great build, great brief and your work is inspirational!! What is your next project?? Happy modelling. Doose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is so beautiful Janne!! / Jocke Thanx Jocke..... you´ll get an eye full of it at Modell GBG this autumn Aigore,Very nice build and a model to be proud of!!!

About the pledge: I don´t thin it at all..I never had it crack on me before. For some reason it cracked or was cracked when I started my washes. As a matter of fact it´s almost only cracked over surfaces painted with Xtracolor.... A theory might be that I didn´t let the Xtracolor dry and cure enough before I started glosscoating it. Xtracolor is a gloss enamel and requres a lot more drying time than flat or satin humbrols. It might have been issues with air humidity and temperature as well....... I really don´t know, I only suspect.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hi there Josh and thank you for the comment :D I put on 2x Python 4, 2 x AIM 120C AMRAAM, 2X GBU-12 and a GBU-27. The pods under the intake are Litening pods...both the FLIR pod and the Laser designator. And the wingtanks are the 600 gallon ones. The simplest way of getting israeli weapons is to buy the Skunk Model Workshop IDF weapon sets http://www.luckymodel.com/scale.aspx?searc...=48&q_word= The pods I scrounged from other kits but there are probably aftermarket pods out there as well :D , that is awesome! Thank you antony :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
