Great Wall Hobby G.W.H L4823 1/48 Su-35S “Flanker E” Air to Surface ver.


Recommended Posts

Great Wall Hobby G.W.H L4823 1/48 Su-35S “Flanker E” Air to Surface ver. kit to be released soon.
Once again I participated in the designing and painted the samples shown in the pictures.
New tooled parts are:
KAB-1500L/Kr bomb, Kh-29T Air to surface missile, Kh-31AD Anti-ship missile, AKU-58 pylons and BD4-USKM pylons, all comes by a pair in the box.
Especially to be noticed that Kh-31AD is the very first time to be done in 1/48 scale ever, by any material.
Includes 2 eggplant grey schemes and 1 tricolor camo scheme.
Enjoy!

I agree. As usual, your paint work is just beautiful, especially the bare metal surfaces on the fuselage and missiles. The Kh-31ADs are especially nice. I was going to point out that Aerobonus makes a 1/48 KH-31, but it does not appear to be an AD version which is longer than the A.

Yes Aerobonus made one 1/48 Kh-31, but it was not AD and unfortunately its shape and detail is terribly wrong...

Ok now I'm going to buy one. I've been wanting to do an in-flight egg plant Flanker-E for a while and now this one has sold me. I dont even know but does the GWH kit come with a pilot or no?

As far as I know no pilot for this one, or in other words besides weapon all plastic is same as the initial release L4820.

But the new Su-27 family kit shall have seated pilot as standard parts, so there's hope...

I'm not an expert in this fighter jet, but isn't it the kit is sitting quite low as the missiles are almost touching the ground on the finished kit shown? Just wondering.....

 

 

Looks about right based off the only pictures I could find on the interwebs.

Sold and sold again!

Now how about that SU-27 we all are waiting for!

Great work!

Well considering Tamiya Hasegawa etc. already did that so many times, so why not. :) 

Vanilla Flanker is under processing and will disclose when it worth to be.

We don’t like to leak picture by picture to attract attention which is so childish.

Business shall always be serious and with faith.

Well, You certainly know how to build and paint models! very lovely, clean work. Thank you for the thread that you did earlier on the build and painting of the Su-35. It is an invaluable resource!

 

Re the Su-27, having built both the Kittyhawk and GWH Su-35's, I will be waiting patiently for the GWH kit to arrive. Without a doubt, it will be the benchmark Flanker in "any" scale!

You guys won't be disappointed!

With the help from many true aircraft experts like Gabor who gave great help on the Su-35 project, the GWH Su-27 will definitely hit another high level or aircraft model kit research!

The Kh-31AD is longer than the Kh-31. Greater range from what I've read.

It is interesting to see production aircraft in the dark grey "eggplant" scheme. I thought that that was originally only on some early airframes with the old style stinger that had the upward pointing flare dischargers.
