Booga Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Wow, it looks tremendous, congratulations. IMHO what is really lacking on Su-27UB kits in any scale is the big frame of the blind flying hood which is very visible under the large canopy. I hope Zacto include this in their future UB canopy replacement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mitko Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 Yep, this is very true. The blind is missing, and it is quite a thing for instrument flight training. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon Fitzgerald Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Yep, this is very true.The blind is missing, and it is quite a thing for instrument flight training. This is looking ever more impressive with every update! Stellar stuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aggressor Supporter Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I have always liked the scheme on the Ukrainian Flankers. This one is another great example as to why. Big Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mitko Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 The display case is finally ready! It wights 50-60 pounds, but I think it's worth to have it. The piece of the taxiway is too small, so I will get another one - bigger. I was willing to have the effect that Narita's F-14 has in the Tamiya museum, and I think the case is pretty close to that. I wish my model was so precise too, but - next time maybe! Hope you'll like it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aggressor Supporter Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Nice display case to go with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HOLMES Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Mitko Sir, That is ONE of the BEST FLANKERS I have seen for a long time.. I LOVE IT... :wub: { the display is great too and your display cabinet is just like MINE where I put MY Eagle}.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mitko Posted January 19, 2011 Author Share Posted January 19, 2011 Thanx friends! Thank you very much for the kind words! Well, I guess this wraps this project up! I might post it with the new runway when it's ready, but mostly, this is it! I am moving forward to an Aggressor F-16... Will share with you and let's hope I will get decent results at the end! Thank you very very much for the support and the comments! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
McCoy Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 That's one beautiful Flanker! I think that it would look even better in it's cabinet without the taxiway... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marcel111 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Mitko, your Flanker looks really good :blink: !! Congrats on completing that paint scheme. I'm currently building a single-seat Ukrainian Flanker, so I can empathize. Cheers, Marcel Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I agree, it's the most beautiful scheme, and that on the most beautiful plane, doesn't really get any better Actually, I haven't touched plastic in 6 months since we are in the process of moving from the U.S. to Switzerland. Hopefully I can get going again some time this year. Cheers, Marcel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mitko Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 And I plan to move to US from Europe Will build a lot of Eagles and Tomcats Have fun with your 56. I have some spares from my decals, if you mess something up, you can always PM me, and I can shoot you mail with anything. Switzerland is closer to me than US currently Quote Link to post Share on other sites
