RonanThanks😉
Yes Pierre, i often use the technique of trompe l'oeil to paint the cockpit...

Harry EderHello Ronan! Can you explain this technique? I don´t know what you mean...
27 April 2018, 06:12
PierreAgreed, it works often visually better than actual drilling/detailing at this scale.

Ronan@Harry : trompe l'oeil technique concist in painting details instead of reproduce it by plasticard or wire.
I'm currently painting the details in the landing gear housing with lots of wire ( see the next picture). Everything is painted by hand.

Mike DanielsThats very effective Ronan. The shadow effect really helps to add relief. You must have a very steady hand and a very tiny brush!!

Kurt ReichertDu trompe-l'œil!? Hmm......i will test this technique now on my B-25 project. I hope it works on a bigger scale as well. ( 1/48 )

Markus Antoniustrompe l'oeil technique - never thought of using it on plastic models! it is often used in cardboard modelling. very nice effect! i will give it a try next time!

GlennPhoto 10 reminds me of when Wile E Coyote paints a tunnel onto a rockface!

Spanjaardi was just looking at that cockpit again... simply amazing.... this technique works on every scale you say.... but certainly not everybody has your skills! amazing!

Bart GoesaertNicely applied camo... think this is also the most interesting camo applied to this bird...

Bart GoesaertSeems you are the first one to complain. Can you explain how you worked?

RonanFirst : primer Gunze
Second : Akan paint with Tamiya thinner
Third : satin varnish
Result : The slightest contact with the painting makes her jump. When I remove the scotch the paint goes away. I've tried with or without thinner, same thing . I 've never seen that before whatever the paint. i will never buy Akan in the future.

RonanMerci Laurent, ça n'avance pas très vite à cause du jardin et autres bricoles dans la maison, mais bientôt je vais m'y remettre

Murad ÖZERtoo bad about the woes with paint, still looking stunning despite the problems.

Kevin StruemphExceptional! Your cockpit detail painting is next-level. Sadly, the '34 doesn't have an easy cockpit to show.

Gordon SørensenGreat looking Sukhoi, Ronan! The Su-34is such a cool looking machine!

Łukasz GlińskiLooks grand! Lovely cockpit! I'd never suspect the painting problems unless you mentioned them 👍

RonanThanks gents, I'm glad I finished this model because I was tired of this f.... painting 🙂

Michael PhillipsAbsolutely beautiful Ronan! I am most impressed with the cockpit and paintwork. Nice touch adding the curtains!

AugustoAmazing work! Beautifull! Can you elaborate on the creation of the base? I need some inspiration. hehe
9 July 2018, 12:46
Ronan@Augusto : the base is a vulgar A4 photo frame on which I glued a cardboard rectangle cut out of a calendar, and then I painted the calendar piece and glued some grass 🙂

Slavo HazuchaWow, really great work, superb cockpit & paintjob! I'm just working on one in 48-scale, difficult enough, but what you do in 1:72 is just amazing!
