haneto Posted February 2, 2022 Author Share Posted February 2, 2022 We are in the 3rd day of our Chinese luna new year holidays but I'm processing slowly, since I have a lot of family service to do, for my wife, daughter and all the relationships who keep on visiting our home. 😉 Well, at least, the prime is done. I cannot believe if anyone who dislike prime!? Especially the #1500 surfacer——It's so silk-like smoothy and honest: always tell you all the great details on the surface, as well as the flaws you made. Now we are talking: the real fun, painting, begins! Stay tuned! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Solo Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Haneto, what about fitting issues? Are there any? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

uncarina Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 (edited) I'm not seeing any flaws through the primer! I'm looking forward to seeing her painted. Which aircraft will you be depicting? Happy Holidays, Tom Edited February 2, 2022 by uncarina Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wardog Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 haneto, beautiful work and extremely well executed! Your attention to detail is without compare. Still not sure how you got the color separation on parts so crisp and clean. Keep up the great work. Elmo Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thadeus Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 A little late to the show. Man, that cockpit looks simply amazing. You put more work to the seat than I probably put in an entire model. Great work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing difficult, just a little patience will do the job. 16 hours ago, Thadeus said: A little late to the show. Man, that cockpit looks simply amazing. You put more work to the seat than I probably put in an entire model. Great work. Thanks! Well actually not too much details will be seen after assembling. It's always pain point of aircraft modelling though. So when I designed the kit, I always put the "compromise" logic for part breaking/detail selection in my mind. I'm processing slowly to paint the camo since the Flanker is indeed quite big. (My fingers gets tired easily during spray the shadows over camo.) Will keep you updated and your encouragement gives me so much motivation. Thanks for following and stay tuned! Yufei Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aigore Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Re-read your thread....I am so grateful for your colour call outs on the details! After I'm d8ne with my Giant Viggen I will set my teeth into a GWH Su-27UB and make it a Ukrainian tribute! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

haneto Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 So sorry for being silent for a while. I was busy with my daily work, and also painting this beast(it's huge)! So finally I finished the basic painting and washing job. Next will be another fun part: weathering!! Here again, I share with you my recipe. First, the body. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haneto Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 Then the vertical fins, stabilizers and gear bay covers, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haneto Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 The missiles, pylons and transfer beams. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haneto Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 And some shots for fun, just to show you how big a Flanker is. 😉 That's all for now. Stay tuned! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lovely progress btw, Yufei....really wish I was half the modeller you are, you are inspiring! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uncarina Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Another superlative build Yufei! I always learn a great deal from watching your work. Cheers, Tom Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BastianD Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Very nice build, huge bird! Agree with Aigore that a Ukraine bird is a great hommage in these crazy times. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haneto Posted March 29, 2022 Author Share Posted March 29, 2022 Thanks for following guys! We are facing lock down in Shanghai recently, due to re-breakout of COVID-19. I have been staying at home for more than 2 weeks, but there is never boring life for modeller like this! So I made lots of progress over the past 2 weeks. Here we go! Some addtional work on small parts: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haneto Posted March 29, 2022 Author Share Posted March 29, 2022 And the weathering started. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haneto Posted March 29, 2022 Author Share Posted March 29, 2022 Once the weathering goal was secured by a semi-gloss clear coating, I turn to the bare metal area painting. First is the small areas on fuselage, where Galaxy Model pre-cut masking tape comes for rescue. A must buy item for the built! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
