Kamov Ka-52 1/48

[chukw]

Molodyets, Sergei! Well done!

[Bulldog 09]

Now the question is where do you order these when they come available?

Last renderings before the start of production of the Ka-52 Khokum. They reported that the next will be the Mi-28 Havoс.

I can’t say anything about the purchase of this model, about 38 countries out of 200 have imposed sanctions, including yours, so you can’t use our payment system, and we can’t use yours. Mail works all over the world, so you can purchase this model only through an exchange with some modeler from Russia. For example, I recently needed a SR-71 from Revell, but I purchased it through an intermediary in Poland)))

 

Regards,

Sergei

That is gorgeous.  Beautiful work.  I look forward to the Mi-28 as well.  Hopefully the sanctions will be lifted soon and we'll be able to readily purchase them.

Yes, put me down for one of each in 1/35, please. Too good to pass up.

 

Do the sanctions apply to real aircraft or the kit?

The sanctions apply to trade between countries and the use of payment systems. Previously, I used Visa and Master cards, Pay Pal for purchases abroad. Now I can use Visa and Mastercard only within Russia or the Mir national payment card in Russia and countries that support payments with it. Also, you cannot directly buy anything from Russia, because your government has imposed sanctions on payments. All this is sad and makes it difficult for each of us to enjoy our hobby.

Very few Russian companies seemed to have had good distribution outside Russia before the war and a number being direct sales. Probably will have to wait until on eBay from a near by country. I have gotten good results ordering from Latvia and Kazakhstan since the war started. I am sure like most things grafters will soon make things more of a gamble.

Actually, you can buy direct from Russia.  You can’t just use certain payment systems.  I just received a order direct from Quinta Studios in Russia.  They use Payoneer as a payment processor.

Had a complaint about this statement (IMO) its a statement of fact and not a political post. Others might not agree, your mileage my vary. Its not going on about the war, its about buying the model.

This one is also a statement of fact. There are sanctions. Hopefully this war will be over soon. Go build a model.

Did this allow regular credit card payment or treated it as a cash advance?

Was treated as a CC payment as near as I can tell.  I looked up Payoneer, and it appears to be a legit portal for making business payments.

I’ll have to look into Payoneer as I have been waiting to order some Live Resin product but waited to long.

Do it in 1/35, you will see a good amount of sales. How is this priced in other scales anyway. It looks fantastic by the way.

Looks outstanding! Definitely do it in 1/35, please!

Is there a problem with shipping from Russia?
I havent had any myself.

[Tomcatfreak]

Shipping from Russia was/is not a problem. Only the payment. 
I would love to have the Alligator in 1/35, but will take 2 in 1/48 for sure 💪🏻
 

Great work 👍🏻

I don't know if shipments from Russia are allowed, but payment is a problem.  I have tried to order from Amigo Models or Arma Models in Russia and they cannot accept any western way or payment like PayPal, Visa or Mastercard. Arma Models has a lot of things I would love to order.

Temp-Models website states that they can take PayPal again but I am not sure if that is just and old notice.

 

Too bad.

Shipments from Russia are allowed and work as before, just take a bit longer. Some companies adjust for new reality and use other payment processors as Dave mentioned above. I've heard that Arma stopped shipping overseas but never checked myself. I'm going to do it when Ka-52 is released.

Hi all, I am new to the forum and joined on behalf of an elderly friend who is not online but is an accomplished (petrol) model plane and heli. builder.

He is very keen to acquire a jet powered kit for the Kamov KA-52.  Any suggestions that would lead to sourcing a kit or unfinished build of a Kamov KA-52 will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[Helmsman]

There are 2 options in 1/48 scale: old Italeri/Revell Ka-50 kit (very hard to find) + NeOmega conversion or new Arma Models kit which is expected to be released in late November. It will be also not easy to get as Arma Models is in Russia and at the moment they offer shipping to Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan only let alone almost nonexistent payment options.
