Lovely work, well done. Good to see how the Black dog folded wings work for future reference when I get around to my Aussie Navy S-2 conversion

Palo M

Thanks Ekki

Łukasz Gliński
Thank you Anna - I like them too, there are couple more waiting in my stash (PF, PFM & F-13)

komoras
Nice Mig! 👍

Łukasz Gliński
@komoras - thanks a lot
@ Anna - I heard Eduard 21 in 1/48 is quite good, but 48 is completely not my story 😉

Calvin Gifford
Sublime work! And thanks for sharing about the rocket launchers - I knew there was a reason I had picked up that Dragon 1/72 Soviet Weapons set 🙂

Łukasz Gliński
Thx Calvin, the original ones are rather poor indeed 🙂

Alec K
A classic! Nice job 👍

Łukasz Gliński
So true! Must have been green and orange 😄

Bernd Grün
Nice build of that Oldie. 👌 Congrats, mate!

Thomas Kolb
While waiting for some paints to arrive in the mail to continue my MiG-23 build project, I decided to do a very quick build of the Eduard L-39 in my stash. This kit is labeled as a "weekend" build, which might be a bit optimistic for me, but should still be a quick progress.

Clement
Great job on that cockpit.
Following with interest.

Łukasz Gliński
Me 2 👍 That cockpit is astonishing 😮

Harry Eder
Great start! I'll watching 3

Clement
Do you already have a plan for the shades you're going to use? I found the L-39 classic camouflage very hard to get right. I hope you'll have more luck with it.

Mr D
Looking good, cockpit green is 👍 nice.
Coming on good 👌

Łukasz Gliński
@Clement: I think I've seen these colours released lately by Mr.Paiint

Robert Podkoński
Taking a seat here.

Ekki
Watching too.

Clement
Thanks @Łukasz, well spotted!

For the Hungarian standard camo, MRP has released an entire set, consisting of MRP-351 Brown, MRP-352 Dark Green and MRP-353 Light Blue.

Thomas Kolb
Yesterday I spent some time comparing the hue and tint of the MRP paints with my own mix of Tamiya acrylics (as described in photo 26 above), and found them to be absolutely identical. I also found the MRP paints much too smelly and aggressive and hard to adjust if you want to blend in slightly varying tones in panels etc. The Tamiyas can furthermore be used for extremely diluted thin filter applications, while the MRP are block solid.

Clement
Well done on those paints!
I agree with you, Tamiya paints spray great and don't smell nearly as nasty as MRP's.

Cuajete
I was missing this one.
Well done so far, Thomas! 👍

J35J
Great progress!👍🏻

Łukasz Gliński
I see you mixed too much of this colour and used it on the background 😋
Lovely preshading, sth I don't have enough patience for

István Szücs
Very nice build and paintwork!

Cuajete
Very nice painting job, Thomas. Looks fantastic so far 👍

I recently saw that Edward has released the transparent parts of this kit as "L-39 Revised Canopy":
L-39 Revised Canopy (Eduard 7040Y, 1:72)

Do you know what problem the original transparent parts have?

Guy Rump
Looking great 👍

Thomas Kolb
Cuajete, thank you! No, I wasn't aware of any issues with the canopy. To me, the version provided in the kit is good enough, it certainly looks correct compared with photos.

Nicolas
I'm not sure, but the kit photos show onle the multi part canopy. The revised Canopy kit also has a single peace closed version.

Thomas Kolb
Nicolas, yes, you are right. With the new set you also get a closed canopy so the builder doesn't have to join the separate pieces together. I guess it makes for a simpler build.

Cuajete
Thank you mates! 👍

Michael Kohl
Taking a late seat. Interesting background information.

Cuajete
Thomas, I thik that your SK 61 Bulldog album was deleted. I can't see it

Nicolas
@ Cuajete: I tried it direktly from Thomas' albums. There it works, but ther is a notice that comments are disabled.

Cuajete
Thank you, Nicolas 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Lovely shading Sir 👍

Moreno Baruffini
Very nice! This build reminds me that I started a similar kit more thas ten years ago, with a Czech camo and some decals already applied...Now It's om the "shelf od doom" ...Maybe something I'll retake it!

Michael Kohl
Weird. Cool. I like it.

Patrick Hagelstein
This is awesome! Arnold looks spot on!

Gary Victory
Love it...Top work.

Mid Franconian
It took a while for me to capture the scene and and bring it together with True Lies 😄! Perfectly done and off the beaten track!

Erik
Great! ❤️️

Spanjaard
excellent depiction of the scene

NorK
That is just great! 😂
(Have you tried closing the aperture and increasing exposure time for a better depth of field? Tripod recommended)

John Kauck
Very Cool! Well done!

Sky after Snow
Thank you for your suggestion NorK. Will try this.

Oliver
great idea! 😄

Nicely finished! Although I doubt that the Gripen would be easy to fly with all that angry stuff hanging from its pylons! 😉

Nicolas

Great result. 👍 Congrats, mate.
