Sukhoi Su-27 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 (edited) For a long time I haven't posted anything here, so let's change that! Well known GWH kit, everything is OOB, except from the ladders borrowed from the SMT kit and the HUD. Decals are Lift here. This jet represents one flown by Major Zoran Radosavljevic, who was shot down on the 2nd day of the operation Allied force in 1999. His wingman, Peric managed to eject in time and survive, but Radosavljevic died in the crash. He was one of two MiG-29 pilots to die during the war along with Milenko Pavlovic. Painted the model with Gunze aqueous colors and AK Extreme metal. Edited November 9, 2022 by Sukhoi Su-27 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tomthegrom Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 This is just superb! I really love the spots where the old yugoslavian marking have been painted over. I am just starting Pavlovic's jet. I am wondering what gunze color you used for the green? It is a difficult color to find. Are there any tips for the building of the kit or is it straight forward? Your MiG 29 is excellent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have also built Pavlovic's jet, I will post it soon 😀 Yes, the Yugoslav green is very weird and hard to mix. I have used RLM 82 and RLM 02 mix as a base (around 40/60 ratio), then just a tiny bit of IJN green and in the end a bit more white and RLM 02 to fade it. Overall, kit is really good, except for the engine gondolas and intakes. I would suggest not listening to the instructions and first completing the intakes and the rear part, and only then fixing them into position. I made a mistake and had a lot of putty and sanding work there. @Bastian and pacheco Thanks guys! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tomthegrom Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Thank you for the reply about the green. I will look into those colors. I have the AK mig29 green but looks like I might have to add a bit of Russian green 2 to make it green enough. Will be fun! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LyIgor Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Looks great, Sukhoi Su-27! p.s. I also made the plane of his commander Milenko Pavlovich few years ago ... https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235042327-mig-29-yugoslavian-af-vitesovi-172/#comment-3113392 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
