Tony9409 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Here is a couple of progress shots of the 1:48 scale SU-35UB...I've been working on the cockpit area to finish it off for the group build.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tony9409 Posted January 21, 2005 Author Share Posted January 21, 2005 here is a front side view...still need to add hud panes and ISTB among other little details...the front canopy is not glued in right now and was one made from the SOL plug in their conversion kit.

Waco Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Just curious, where did you get the markings? Specifically, the Bort #s... Looks great! Any info on the colors you used for the scheme? -Waco Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tony9409 Posted January 21, 2005 Author Share Posted January 21, 2005 Thanks, The Bort numbers come from the numbers on Russian Knights decals found in the mini-hobby kits (the sheets have the correct colour for the tail starburst too...). It would be sure nice if someone made a good sheet of these with the white offsets. The paint colours are Tamiya Blue (X4) and Sky Blue (X14) while the lightest blue is ModelMaster's Flanker medium blue lightened. Gear legs are Modelmaster Fulcrum grey and the Nose cone is RAF Dark Sea Grey. cheers, :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tony9409 Posted January 23, 2005 Author Share Posted January 23, 2005 Here is a new shot after doing a bit of the work mentioned. This one shows part of the instrumentation changes. I'm still checking references, but might need to revert to a normal HUD vs the SU-35 one in the cockpit right now...if anyone knows the right one let me know...The SU-35UB is based on an SU-30MKK having more upto date avionics and they may not have changed the HUD yet. thanks Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
