The staff who edit the booklet accidentally used the Su-35 photo on 3rd row. But the shape/kink is same on both Su-27 and Su-35. Only the root panel before the kink, the shape is different by -27 and -35. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ya-gabor Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Jumping a little ahead but after all in some cases we modellers sometimes want to see what it looks like and patience is left behind. There are many choices for the modellers. Here is a view of the main canopy in two versions. Everyone can use a canopy which is closest to their liking and needs. A quick assembly of the ejection seats showing the choice given to modellers. How many time have you seen that the seat in forward and after cockpit have the harness left behind by pilots in exactly the same “arrangement”. And here is the cockpit with most of the parts fitted to see what it will look like. All photos by Haneto. Best regards Gabor Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ijozic Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) Will there be tiny instrument decals provided for the instrument panels like in the MiG-29 kit? I certainly hope so as it was less of a hassle then expected and it worked out great. Edited August 11, 2020 by ijozic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ya-gabor Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 I did the research and development of the stencils ( boy, there are hunderds of them, those Sukhoy designers love to leave their "signatures" all over the airframe ) and the ejection seat decals. Dont know what will happen inside the cockpit, but would suspect that it should be the same principle as on previous kits. Best regards Gabor Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tomcat Trebor Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 It is amazing to see how injection processing has progressed, not one ejection pin in sight on the parts. Regards Robert Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes of course there will be complete cockpit decals including instrument panels, small buttons, vents, etc. You may also notice the instrument panels are recessed so that you can add some clear UV glue after applying the decals, to replicate the glass effect. Those are all calculated during the kit design. Hope it clarifies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ya-gabor Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 It would be really intersting if this was true since we are still working on some details of the kit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What the seller is showing is just a box top and the standard photos published by G.W.H. I would say this is a rip-off. It WILL be available in the future!

I don't mind painting the cockpit myself if the raised detail provided is good enough, but the instrument faces are impossible to paint convincingly for me, hence why I wish more kits would came with individual instrument faces when they already go through the extra cost of desinging detailed instrument panels.

When I see this, all I want to do is use my fine brushes and dump Eduard's colored (and way too much pixelated) PE. GWH sure rock !!! Cheers ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I see no reason to purchase resin seats, the part definition is so beautiful, I cannot see Tamiya doing any better... except perhaps for transparencies. Amazing work ! Cheers !

Silver Seraph Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Man, I have generally not much interest in Sukhoï fighters but this level of accuracy or dedication to detail is the reason I will most certainly purchase all of their Sukhoï kits. These are gigantic steps ahead of the Hobby Boss and Kinetic kits which were not bad kits after all. Cheers ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
