Nice pre-shading 😊

ScaleFella NAFO
👌🏼 How is the quality of the GE Model parts?

squidward89
Thank you guys!
ScaleFella NAFO : There are a lot of omitted parts and it doesn't seem good.
Personally, I wouldn't recommend it.

ScaleFella NAFO

Ooh that's gorgeous.
Lovely work.

Guy Rump
Great result! 👍

Neuling
Indeed!

Cristian A
Don't be too harsh on yourself, the detail about the shark mouth being lower is not noticeable and the result of your hard work is exceptional.

Rolf Rolf
What did you do to tie the paint work, it looks great👌

Hister Farjas
Great, i want it 1/72

DuperScale
But on image 20 the mouth looks the same. Anyway, awesome result. 😁👍

squidward89
Thank you! everyone 😁
There were several mistakes, but I finished it anyway!

Cristian A : Thank you!! I won't cry like a child anymore LOL 😊

Rolf : It's just airbrushing. Nothing else!

Zoltan Grotz
Fantastic !!! Very nice job!!!

Spanjaard
excellent piece of work. only one error, "is it just airbrushing" is so far from reality... please correct that, "it is just excellent airbrushing" 😉

Rolf : I have brought video for you.

Youtube Video

I painted similar to his way of working. Maybe it will help you!
(For camouflage patterns, Unlike him, I first drew with a model pencil and then used an airbrush.)

Zoltan Grotz : Thank you so much!😁
Spanjaard : In my case, I'm not an expert and I'm not good at English, so it's almost impossible to explain.🤣
( Or maybe I misunderstood the question itself. 🤣 )

Spanjaard
no worries 🙂

Jan Janssen
NICE! and thank you. Learned some thing new as it made wonder "Swedish",.. some how managed to miss the fact the Swedish Army has these ex East German BMP's in servers

Jan Janssen
Unusual subject wonder how it builds up, #following

Mr D

Great progress! Following👍🏻

Edouard Carr
Great idea about the watch pins! ⌚ Definitely gonna try this out on my builds. Looking forward to the finished result.

Mr D
Hi Edouard👋😀👍.
Yes l just get cheap ones of eBay, the do different sizes, you can pull ends n spring out for barrel look, or file ends last to have a recoil cannon look.
The gun turret nearly there now....lots of sanding n filling low spot.
Thanks for looking in on build.👍👍

Thanks Michael 👋😀👍
Good to have you along ✈️

Zbynek Honzik
I'm very curious to see the result. I built this model as a young boy too.

Mr D
Hi Zbynek 👋🙂👍.
Thanks for your interest. Nice to know you had it too, l built X3 the Tu airliner and the bomber. But this was my favourite as l liked the shape and that it had floats n guns.
Got part of tail on this evening.
Keep looking in for updates 😃👍👍

Mr D
Airliner Was the Tu-134

Martin Oostrom
Dryfit the front window early in your build. I've heard rumours of a horrible fit near the engine intakes

Thank you, Martin, for the input, I will keep it in mind!

Qwertzel
Following! I'm building a similar un 1:32. Good luck!

Alexey Bykov
check the rotation of main blades. in kit is made wrong side.
good luck!

Thomas O'Eh
thanks for the hint, Alexey. Will be tricky to fix this with the bent rotor blades. Have you seen any built where this was actually corrected?

Alexey Bykov
i made it =) karopka.ru/forum/forum260/topic24215/
you can bend blades in oposite side.

Gergő Takács
Thomas. I built this kit a few months ago. I used also lead as you mentioned. I squeezd it and choped it. I placed them under the cabinfloor and I put some inside of the dashboard cover also.
