SU-27K(SU-33 prototype)

Clifford Keesler
Decals in progress.

Augie
Love it, looks like it went well?

Clifford Keesler
Thank you very much Augie. am still putting stencils on it, have been all week and still have the belly and pylons to do, and I thought Phantoms had a lot of stencils. The decals are excellent though.

Clifford Keesler
Finally finished the decals and sealed them today with a clear coat. I will try and get some new pictures up tomorrow.

Jos Jansen
Interesting Clifford...nice progress so far!

Clifford Keesler
Thank you very much Jos.

Clifford Keesler
I got the wash on today.

Clifford Keesler
I applied the matt coat this afternoon, I used Winsor and Newton matt varnish for the first time, and I really like the stuff. I will try and get some more pictures once the matt coat is good and dry. Then starts the fun part weathering. Builds are going to be slow until after the holiday's, as I have no room to put any thing any where.

Michael Hickey
Nice Cliffy, looking good.

Nathan Dempsey
That's some fine work there Clifford.

Clifford Keesler
Thank you very much Michael and Nathan. I have a couple of nice kits of the SU-27 now, so we will see how well I do on them. Instead of Kitech kits Lol.

Augie
That looks superb m8, the colours are pretty spot on 🙂

Palo M
Excellent work - congrats on such a nice build.

Nathan Dempsey
Since you made the Kitech look nice then the newer kits will be show stoppers 🙂

Clifford Keesler
Thank you very much Augie and Palo. @ Augie I used the colors called out in the Begmont decal sheet, which are excellent decals by the way. @ Nathan, I sure hope so. I'm so used to doing the not so good kits I'm afraid I'll mess up the good one's. I finally got myself a Meng F-4, now I will shoot for a ZM one.

Michael Hickey
I've heard nice things about the ZM F-4, but I have read that the wing tips can test your patience.

Augie
Ahh cant go wrong with Begmont decals, used them myself 🙂

Clifford Keesler
@Michael, I have seen mixed reviews on them, but am going to try one any way. @ Augie, yes I like them so much just ordered 2 sets for my SU-30MK's. they are SU-27's Flanker sheets but they also have markings for SU-30's also, which is good as the SU-30 kits decals really suck. Lol.

Daniel Klink
