DraganChe Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) Hello friends, This is G-4MD Super Galeb in 1/4 scale, whole model was scratchbuild :-), of course it is :-) It represents model from Serbian Airforce for modified variant of basic G-4 Super Galeb. Model was build of wood, then was used a lot of material,as a plexy glass,metal,etc. This model was presented on various air shows and military meetings as a model kit of technical demonstrator in Serbian military aeronautics. Paint which I have used for this project were for car industry, and whole markings and stencils were masked then painted with airbrush.Hope you like it :-) Comments are welcome. All the best, Dragan Indjija,Serbia Edited August 30, 2017 by DraganChe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aigore Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 As a former professional modelbuilder I appreciate the work put into a project like this and it looks fantastic. But, as a hobby modeller I think this post is bordering on marketing of your products and skills and that doesn't really belong in this forum... I mean no disrespect but this is a professional build and not a hobby project. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As a former professional model maker, a current professional aftermarket guy and always a traditional hobbyist at heart, I welcome posts like this. He's sharing a cool model airplane build and he's not even selling anything. Nice job Dragan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing much add really, mate :D I thought it was a grey area. Not my forum, not my rules but now I know what applies so we're all the wiser. Happy Modelling! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
