Looking good! Shame the interior won't be seen. I like the soft camo of the blues, but if it is meant to be hard then so be it haha.

Martin Oostrom
Checking in!

Spanjaard
Thanks Peter. I may try to make it somewhere between soft and hard, need to experiment a bit

Spanjaard

1/144 scale modeling is an artform in its own right! The quality you have achieved on this scale is unbeleivable!

Spanjaard

Peter Muldoon

Miguel Vaquero
This is just amazing for this scale!!

Spanjaard
thanks Miguel, not my best model, but quite happy about it. I need to finish several other long overdue 1/144 projects....

Zbynek Honzik
Exactly as Miguel writes; considering the scale, this is an amazing result! 👏👏👏
I like the one in the rescue color the best.

Spanjaard
thanks a lot for your nice comment Zbynek Honzik

That's nice!

Robert Podkoński
Taking a seat, of course!
(Perhaps the transparencies and propellers from this kit would work:
Soviet Tu-2 Bomber (HobbyBoss 80298, 1:72))

Thomas Kolb
Thank you Robert! The three-bladed standard propellers in the kit are actually fine, it is the transparencies I am a bit worried about.

Łukasz Gliński
Me 2, must watch this - wondering how good/bad this kit is

Dave Flitton
Watching!!

Me 3, this will be another great build to follow.

Cuajete
Me 5!
I still don't understand why they haven't released a more updated tool for this model yet.

Moreno Baruffini
Thomas, you are a specialist in reminding me the models I started and non finished (yet)! Super inspiring, and a great build to follow for sure!

Thomas Kolb
Dear friends, thank you for your interest. I am a bit curious myself how this model will turn out - I have read some pretty nasty things about it in reviews, but I am not sure it's so bad. It certainly looks very intricately designed, not your usual shake 'n' bake kit for sure.

Gergő Takács
Thomas, you are doing always the same project what I want to do in the future with the same kits. 😀 I'm always taking a seat and save your work for motivation.

Finn
I'm in

Łukasz Gliński
Thomas, your tutorial is priceless! 👍

Mr D
Like this 👍👍
Big fan of soviet n russian stuff, will have to look up history on this one as new to me.
Interesting subject, Nice 😁

Cuajete
Good start, Thomas. Thank you so much for your tutorial 👍

Thomas Kolb
I must say, I am pretty impressed with this kit so far. At first sight it looked like an Amodel kit, but everything is very cleverly designed and all parts fits together beautifully without any problems. The only gripe I have is with the plastic itself - it's very soft and stretchy and definitely does not like to be sanded.

Nicolas
Nice start, joining.

Живко Джаков
I'm here too. I have one in a box and we only see each other with it 🙂

Cuajete
Great job so far, Thomas 👍
I never bought this kit because I thought it would be difficult to deal with.

Thomas Kolb
Cuajete, I must say, I am pretty impressed with this kit so far. At first sight it looked like an Amodel kit, but everything is very cleverly designed and the parts almost fall together by themselves without any problems. The only gripe I have is with the plastic itself - it's very soft and kind of stretchy, and all sanding needs to be followed by polishing to result in a smooth surface.

nikfrost
buckling up for this one!

gorby
I'm interested in this project so I'll tag along. 🙂

What was the problem with the PVC foam?

The foamed PVC was a nice medium that I'm sure I'll find a project for, but for now I just found scribing and cutting just a bit too fiddly to get right. That's more of a skill problem than a problem with the material. But I have a hot wire cutter that makes very quick work of foam, and the brick carving process is far more enjoyable for me on XPS.
