Kerry COXThe detail is certainly there to be enhanced Przemek, and the wheel wells are certainly a great start. 🙂

Günther DebiscopPrzemek, is it based on a real monument? Do you really want to put all that detail in a monument, mostly they don't have any dials and seat in them 😉

Przemek PrzybulewskiThank you very much Antonio.
Gunther - idea is to combine 2 in 1. As a base I would like to put a monument on a display, but I also would like to do it as removable, so I can show only model on this base.

Günther DebiscopGreat idea.
I'm also thinking of making some monuments (found in Belgium) but then it would be just like to monument with e.g. tainted canopy.

Przemek PrzybulewskiI found picture of MiG-23 monument few hours after ordering details to my model. It was too late to cancel order but I wanted to build it as monument so I had to think of something which allowed me to use model as stand alone but also to put in on a monument.
Maybe some day if model will be bad I will albo build it as statue with all doors closed, simple engine and closed and covered canopy.

Bart Goesaertvery interesting subject and very well executed so far... wouldn't the rocket's exhauts be covered with a plate as a dummy on such a model? Last pic does look more than a Gundam or a Valkyrie (macross series) then starwars, but that is my opinion...

Przemek PrzybulewskiBart - you're right about the rocket exhaust but that's the part of surprise. 😉

Bart Goesaertnice work on the monument, and the teaser for the camo... can't wait to see it...

Przemek PrzybulewskiThank you Bart. I will try to find some time this week to finish camo painting.

Marek SwiderskiPrzemek, will you fill with putty this small [four] holes on both front undercarriage doors.

Przemek PrzybulewskiHolger - soon, maybe even today as I have three colours ready, masking for last one. And of course some details paintng like sensors, antennas etc.
Marek - Thanks. I thought that there were holes not stencils. It is done now but I will have to repaint those elements.

komorasHello Przemek, an amazing paint job! 👍
What colors do you use? Is that UHU Patafix?
Could you post a picture of the real monument? 😄

Przemek Przybulewskikomoras - Hi, thank you very much. This is BluTack aomething quite like Pattafix.
Colors were my mixtures, unfortunately I'm unable to provide exact ratio because I was adding something paint straight from jar and sometimes only few drops. Dark grey is an XF-53 Tamiya mixed with white and a fe drops of X-14 Sky Blue. Dark blue is based on X-14, black and white. Light blue is lighter version of previous one and Light Grey is a white with only a little bit of black and blue.

Bart - Thank you very much.

Bernhard SchrockVery remarcable project! Kamuflaż wyszedł super Przemek! Bardzo jestem ciekaw, jak wszystko będzie wyglądać. 🙂

Przemek PrzybulewskiThank you Bernhard. I'm thinking now should I paint flags on the wings or not. Real planes have red stars there but plane on monument do not have anything on the wings. Besides I'm wondering what to do with decals.
So many problems to solve. 🙁

Steven BaerselmanWow.... this is spectacular.
As far as scale models go, modern jets aren't my first choice but your work definitely gives me 2nd thought.
A question, going thru your painting progress, why do you paint the various colours (white, light blue, med blue and grey) as seperate sections, why not say do a base of white, then add the blue splotches over top? Paint get too thick and reduce details?

Bryn CrandellLooks great! What did you use for a wash to make the rivets show like that. Going to try that on next model.

Kerry COXPrzemek, your one hell of a talented modeller mate. 👍 👍 👍
The detail you have achieved is wonderful to see, and in fact, quite inspiring and motivating. 🙂
There will be a lot of guys going back to look at what more they can do with their builds. 👍
I know I am now looking a little harder at my work.
Super job. 🙂

Przemek PrzybulewskiGuido - Thank you. Model is quite big, it's almost 60cm long and about 40 wide with spread wings.
Steven - Thank you for your suggestion. I thought about it but I've decided that similar base and presiding for all layers will be better. I've never painted colors over white base so I wasn't sure how this will look like at the end. Also in this case the lightest color is not white as it might appear as it. It's a white with small addition of grey and blue so even I would paint white base I would also have the same number of masking as I would have to paint white with my whitebluish mix. Anyway you idea of painting is so interesting that I will have to use it some day on maybe Su-27. Thank you again for your comment and suggestion.
Bryn - Thanks. Was is homemade mixture of VanDyke brown and Ivory Black oils with white spirit. After first layer and wiping it off I usually add some more wash but only in some points in few different steps. To add some dirt, smudging etc.
Kerry - Thank you mate. You warm my heart with such words. Thanks to you I feel that my work makes sense.
I put a lot of work, time, heart to my models and it's good to know that someone enjoys it.
Usually when I build plane I never like the stage after camo painted. Time when glossy lacquer is applied and model is like a plastic toy. I like painted plane with raw colors and I like it even more after wash and matt finish where you can see all the details, masks are removed, addition parts are mounted and it finally start looking as a plane and not just a pack of plastics elements.

Kerry COXI am yet to meet a modeller who has a different view of our hobby and, what we go through to get our final result too mate, but in the meantime, we just try our best to please our selves and all those who look on.
An achievement like yours is not all that easy, but I bet you could look at it for hours, and still have a big smile on your face too.
Top job. 👍 🙂

Steven BaerselmanHahaha Przemek, don't mistake my question for suggestion XD i'm complete amateur here - it was an honest question from amateur asking a pro like yourself :'D
21 December 2015, 10:39
Przemek PrzybulewskiKerry - thank you again. And yes, you're completely right. I can watch for hours and smile all the time. That's why I'm not able to sell any of my completed model (even I had few propositions and one or two were really tempting). So they sit on a shelf collecting dust but hey, I know what I build through last couple of years.
Steven - Thank you. I didn't took you as an amateur and I do not feel like a pro. I'm just a simple modeler. Sometime thing get better and sometimes they not. 😉
John - Thank you. I tried to add this red and blue burnt areas where metal gets overheated and change the color. Unfortunately it barely visible on photos. In real it's looks quite different - less gold more blue.

Przemek PrzybulewskiMarko - Thank you.
Leihton H. - Thanks.
Kerry - Thank you very much.

Vladimir Kafka"I can watch for hours and smile all the time."
yeah! I know this sweet moment of peace... looking at your creation... a complex creation, your child... "And God saw that it was good" (Genesis) 😄 😄

Scott DuttonI admire your skill, the painting is sensational. Think that is a great decal option, I've never seen that before on the wings. Merry Christmas

Przemek PrzybulewskiMichel - Thanks.
Augie - Thank you.
Mike - Thank you.
Vladimir - Thank you very much.
Scott - Thanks. Nice to read such words.
Eugen - Thank you.

Alexander PerovSo cool and beautifully coloured ....but these flags on the wing all messed up I have never seen such notation
25 December 2015, 12:18
Przemek PrzybulewskiChristian - Thank you.
Mike - Thanks.
Roland - Thank you very much.
Alexander - Thank you. My model was inspired by the photo found on Wikipedia. Camo, colors, flags are just my own version of this plane. Some elements are like real monument and some are not. It is just an easy interpretation of this subject. Please take a look at mentioned photo - I hope it will explain some more my idea:

Roland SachsenhoferEspecially I like the "wear and tear" you did on this exquisite model- just look at picture 127, how real the sweeping wing is reproduced in the stains on this picture of the airplanes underside!
Just excellent!
25 December 2015, 19:36
Przemek PrzybulewskiErik - Thanks.
Roland - Thank you very much again.
Jan - Dziękuję. 😉
Guido - Thank you. I will post some photo of finished model in a few days. I'm just waiting for everything to dry up to easy and safely manipulate model during photo session. :-D
