flanker Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Somebody was looking for YuMTK Su-34 1/72 photos long time ago(cant find topic now)Finally i have digital cam so,here they are: http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dragan_mig31/1-13.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dragan_mig31/2-14.jpg Some people said that YuMTK Su-34 is more accurate(in big parts)than Italeri.I have two of these kits(plus 3-4 italeri/revell/zvezda kits) And i think that it would be good to use big parts from YuMTK +small parts from Italeri becouse YuMTK is short run,so small parts looks much better in italeri box. Quality is like early Amodel(white short run plastic+ vacumformed canopy) Today YuMTK offering is extremly rare,but if somebedy is interested in i have one surplus but i am not interested to sell it only want to excange it for some : -russian jet/helicopter 1/72 or 1/48 kits or conversion sets -books,magazines (about soviet/russian aviation) My adress is: flanker(et)cg.yu P.S. Thanks to Dragan for posting my photos Quote Link to post Share on other sites

flanker Posted February 3, 2008 Author Share Posted February 3, 2008 No weapon included(strange but true,btw. Strim Su-24M also doesnt include weapon) P.S. Josh thanks for offer but i have them all:) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
flanker Posted February 7, 2008 Author Share Posted February 7, 2008 Did you know that tansparent part on italeri canopy is much bigger than it should be?-Windows- must be smaller.Shape is almost accurate but size of windows is too big.This error can be fixed with carefull painiting:) http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dragan_mig31/08.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dragan_mig31/51.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dragan_mig31/66.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...ig31/i403_1.jpg Here are some photos (AiV draws also says that this is true) of real thing and one model(photo taken form ru.modelism gallery) so Ken now you can update your Flankers review,wich are superb even without this) P.S. I didnt know this until i made comparation between YuMTK and Itlaeri kits.Yumtk canopy looked much smaller and that was reason why i researched this:) P.P.S. Ken i saw that you have only photo of box and decal.Do you want photos of YuMTK Su-34 kit parts to update review? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
flanker Posted February 7, 2008 Author Share Posted February 7, 2008 When i first saw YuMTK model,i was very dissapointed.My first impression was:WHAT!?--uhhh this is real short run,not even amodel quality(i was execting something like VES/Strim super detail and accuracy:) Later i realised that this model look like -early- amodel. Also i thought that even big parts(i had some worries about lenght of model) are not accurate..so i thought that i spent big money for nothing. BUT after close exsamination (using draws and photos and comparation Italeri Vs YumTK i realised that big parts on this model are not so bad,also few friends from ru.modelism gave me advices and pointed areas wich are better than Itleri ones So kitbashing this two kits can be good option.Of course only if you find YuMTK(i think that firm doesnt exsist any more?) Hump on YuMTK also looks better.But(one more BUT:)-smal parts and medium parts(like doors,exhaust etc. are not accurate enough. Decals also are much better in italeri box. http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...g31/YuMTK-1.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...ig31/YuMTK1.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...ig31/YuMTK2.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...ig31/YuMTK3.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...ig31/YuMTK4.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...ig31/YuMTK5.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...ig31/YuMTK6.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...ig31/YuMTK7.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...ig31/YuMTK8.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...ig31/YuMTK9.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/draga n_mig31/YuMTK10.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/dra...g31/YuMTK-2.jpg aftermarket for Su-34: neomega cockpit equipage/elf wheels P&J Kh-31 (very rare) interavia pe LM vertical/horisontal stabilsers(not needed if you have YuMTK) voyager exhausts Begemot decals(dont forget this for any flanker!!!) Also for really accurate Su-34 all aftermarket stuff and even kitbashing with YuMTK is not enough ;) You need to add extra work:) corecting some parts ,ading detail and spending a lot time on styding photos,draws ... I made few Italeri models (out of box with only small corections(tail boom,vertical,horisonatl stabilisers..)but now i am planing this (some day in future:): 1.kitbashing my first YuMTK + Italeri Su-34 to make T-10B-2 or i will kitbash YuMTK + trumpeter Su-27UB(if we will see it ever) to make T-10B-1 2.Revell(rebox of italeri)Su-34 (with a lot of modifications)to make accurate T-10B-5 3. Second YuMTK is going for trade for something other(russian of course:) becouse i am tired of Su-34s:) P.S. Ken ,you have my permission to use this YuMTK photos for your review if you want.Sorry for bad quality but this is the best i can-hope some day i will have better camera:) Best regards Svetozar Jokanovic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
