Definitely from the 'what was I thinking' files. Like all Amodel kits, this one used tooling cut from week old Jello, nothing fits, and most parts need to be discovered in the flash.

I'll try to get some in-progress photos shortly. Unfortunately, I discovered the site at about the 75% point on this little gem. If anyone is building or interested in building this (run, while you still can), I'd be happy to share my experiences...

Once you reach the 95% stage Trumpeter or the likes will announce a new-tool kit of the Brewer...😉

I'm going to follow this one. I hope to see one in 1/48th scale one day.🙂

I think Burkhard hit the nail on the head...Trumpy or Kitty Hawk will drop a surprise release on us just as I'm finishing paint. There was a quarter scale P variant by Hippo, if you can find it...

@Brad
I know that Hippo Models announced it but I don't think they ever released it?

@ Michel; I saw a completed one on BritModeler...haven't read the post, though.

they're coming...currently using an iPhone for pictures, waiting on a proper camera. Not a lot to show anyway. I've got the engine nacelles mated to the wings, the fuselage and vertical stabilizer together, and mostly smoothed out. Still need to get the wings on, and rescribe the inevitable panel line damage. I'll try to get a couple of shots of the wings and fuselage uploaded...

4 more photos. Filling and priming the wings and nacelles, also final join work on the fuselage. This thing is fighting me every step of the way. I've been using Gunze filler, and I'm pretty taken by it. It seems to shrink less than Squadron or Bondo glazing putty, and much softer than Tamiya. Tamiya has it's place, but I find it difficult to work with due to it's hardness. All that's left to do now is rescribe the lost detail and join to the fuselage. Of note; the cockpit rear deck has been reworked to allow the canopy to be slid aft..though the kit canopy is molded as a single piece, it wasn't hard to separate. I had to fabricate a fairing that hasn't yet been installed, but it came from a vac canopy from a Yak-25, and should work according to the very few photos I've found. More coming, but looks like I'll be filling and sanding for a bit yet...NMF is in the future, so the under finish will have to be flawless.

Airframe is together and primed...time for the NMF. Not sure if I'm going to use Alclad or Hawkeye's polishing powders. I DO know I left my CO2 bottle open and have to get a refill before I can do anything else. That makes a good case for a compressor, but I really prefer the dryness of the CO2, plus the fact that it makes no noise at all....

Ack...finally done. Maybe not to the standard that I'd like, but I was honestly tired of looking at it. This also proves that an AModel kit can be built...but not without a significant amount of trauma. I should have primed and sanded once more to help out the NMF, but..again...I just wanted it off my bench. I'm not overly disappointed, though. It was a tough build and it fought me every step of the way. It looks good from a meter away in normal lighting, and that's gonna have to be good enough. Now....what next?

Wow, if that's not a standard you like... it looks great! I dare to say that it is quite unlikely that we will see an Amodel Yak-28 built better than yours. Cheers! 👍👍👍
