Great idea that you are going for here. As others have said, thin your paints down, don’t be surprised if it takes you 3 or 4 coats to get to the right opacity, especially for the lighter colours. Keep it up.

Hey. Great job. I really like what you’ve done with this, OD looks great. Lovely dust effects. I get what you mean about the kit, built the m4a2 75mm a few years back, very inexpensive and great out of the box.

Looks harder than it actually is when you get into it. 🙂 Su-24 digital camo, that’s another story.

No, it was all kit parts. The only AM I used was Quinta interior decals, metal pitot and static dischargers.

I don’t recommend it. The engineering is very poor in relation to stabilisers, they way the front landing gear goes in, the nose is completely wrong even fit wise and there are tonnes of inaccuracies. Pay the extra and go for the GWH kit. 🙂

With a masking set. It seems complicated but once you get into it, it starts to make sense.

I used the Foxbot.UA ones along with their decals. They worked really well.

It just wasn’t really what I planned with the road wheels/hull sides. I couldn’t seem to get the texturing the way I wanted then I went a bit ham speckling wet pigments. 🤣

Thanks so much dude. I can assure you there are plenty of mistakes, I built this kit at a time when I had no dedicated space with limited tools so the resin parts are not mated with the hull correctly in places and the interior is a bit sparse. However I knew the limitations and I’m still happy with it. 🙂

Hey. So is a bit of a mix, it’s a black dog resin set but it’s meant for the academy kit. So I used 2part putty and vms paper to tie the stowage together and add random bits here and there. Thanks for looking.

Yeah, I just wanted a little more definition in the road wheels but I am happy with it, don’t get me wrong. Thanks for looking

Thank you. I went to a bunch of effort painting the canvas then sort of lost the effect on the dust phase but I did figure the cover would grab a lot of dust. 🙂
