jcasilimas Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share Posted September 7, 2011 well almost done... I am adding small parts... comments are welcome!! Javier Quote Link to post Share on other sites
11bee Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Looks great. I like my birds a bit more weathered and dulled down but that is nothing more than personal preference. You did a first-class job on this build and should be very proud. Now get some missiles on that thing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TaiidanTomcat Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 That is really nice looking! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kasatka Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Why your model's nose is down? Su-15s noses are usually pointed up, they are a bit tailseaters. Compare your model with this picture Also, are you sure that you glued the nose cone correctly? Regards Sergey Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Regards Sergey You are right Sergey, maybe I glued up side down, my bad... and I saw the front wheel may be it is a little bit short...too late also, but thank you for pointing that. Those are the pictures of my SU-15: Comment are welcome Thanks!! Javier Edited September 12, 2011 by jcasilimas Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SmashedGlass Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 For the ugliest ever Russian birds go take a look at the Yak-38, the MiG-19 or the Su-7. That's ugly. :lol: I do take offense, sir! While the 19 was pretty much an abysmal failure as a replacement of the 17, it has for it's time some quite nice and rugged lines. Good job on your Flagon, Javier Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aigore Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 About the nose cone, if I remember correctly the nose cone is made to fit upside down, very confusing....I remember scratching my nogging while building this kit and finally went against the instruction sheet and the molded part and simply rotated the theng 180 degrees :P SO I bet there´s lots of upside down nosecones out there.....

Sebastijan Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Great work sir! really love the shapes of this aircraft. Interesting though, how small the airbrakes are, especially compared to Su-7 family Quote Link to post Share on other sites
