Your paint work is progressing nicely 🙂

Ludvík Kružík
Thank you. Now I have work to complete the details of the landing gear and the interior of the landig gear space and airbrakes. These components are not part of the kit. I'll use accessory kits and I'll have to make some details.

Ludvík Kružík
After a short break, I continue working. Today I worked on improving the front landing gear leg.

Looking really good. Your detailing is just super 👍

That detailing on the landing gear, just wow.

15 January 2021, 19:07

Ludvík Kružík
Thank you :-D . It's an old kit. I'm trying to correct his shortcomings. And I can admit that I enjoy it a lot 🙂 .

Work continues to complete the landing gear details. Some details I made new, some are from the additional set Eduard

Ludvík Kružík
I added a few details, applied the decals and painted the yellow identification stripes

I've finished adjusting the main landing gear legs.

Agustin Prellezo
I saw that plane in a museum and I remember the landing gear was extremely complex. I think yours is almost perfect.

Missed part II of this great build! Looking very good!

Great reference material on those landing gear. Lovely work.

Slavo Hazucha
One hardly ever sees this gem of days passed and today I stumble upon 2!

Very nice work, the big-ed pack really helps big-time to wash away the years... Looking forward to you crossing the finish line! 👍

Ludvík Kružík
Many thanks to everyone. I'm so glad you like my job.

25 January 2021, 22:25

Ludvík Kružík
to Agustin:
Yes, the Sukhoi landing gear is complicated. The kit is very schematic and non-model. I try to give the landing gear on my model as realistically as possible.

25 January 2021, 22:39

Ludvík Kružík
Thank you Slavo! It is already a very old set. The detail sets helped me a lot to rejuvenate the set. But there are still a lot of small parts that I have to do. But it's part of modeling and I like it 🙂

25 January 2021, 23:04

Ludvík Kružík
Today I added stencils to the model.

Really do like how this is coming out

5 February 2021, 19:22

Ludvík Kružík
Gentlemen, thank you for your support :-D
I continue to add details. Now I'm working on the details of the interior of the air brakes. It goes slowly, the parts are small and I have to make them all 4 times.

7 February 2021, 15:11

Maciej Bellos
Are the cracks one the yellow paint made on purpose? So as to reflect the temporary nature of the bands?

8 February 2021, 21:16

Ludvík Kružík
Yes, that was my intention. The yellow stripes on the fuselage and wings were painted with water-washable paint and served as an identification of the "enemy" for the duration of the military exercise. Immediately after painting under the stripes, the original color shone through. And due to weather conditions and atmospheric humidity, the stripes gradually washed away.

Maciej Bellos
Ok!

Those air brakes turned out great 👍

I started working on the landing gear. Details are photoetched parts and wires of various diameters
