ajd3530 Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Has anyone heard ANYTHING on when this is supposed to be released? Did they nip it in the bud after the CAD drawings, or what? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DonSS3 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Wow! I didn't realize the wings on the SB-2 were so long in comparison to the fuselage length! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dragonlance Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 I very much like what I'm seeing. I only hope that the panel lines are finer than on Il-4. Vedran The milimeter brigade PS Anyone fancies the MPM vac SB 2M105? Cheap :P Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sakai Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 The answer is in pictures. Just horrible, as before. They should really stay out of this business. Let's hope for Zvezda issue one day. Mario in NYC Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I'm praying the panel lines on that don't look like what will be on their Il-28. Shades of Matchbox. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ajd3530 Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 True, that's something we shouldn't have to deal with on a $50+ kit, but I'll still grab one first chance I get and just shoot an extra coat or two of primer to soften them up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I've never understood that. A coat or two of primer a.) isn't going to cover them up (we're talking microns thick), and b.) will only, if anything, make them softer and musher looking. They need to be sharp and subtle to start with. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wolfik Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 (edited) IT will be sharp when you sanded it wet. We are talking about 0.2mm sprayed in some layers. Edited December 30, 2015 by wolfik Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dragonlance Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 I'm looking at my Il-4. Surfacer won't work. It's fill and rescribe time. Vedran The milimeter brigade Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vimana Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I'd hoped we would have seen that Tupolev SB before this. Wish they'd hurry up with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
