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

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.

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! 👍

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

Rui S
Great Paintjob. Looking good 👍

Bohrmann
50 shades of green😉. Look very very good to me.. Well done.

Adam
Thank you very much! I tried my best and to obtain this shade I used Tamiya nato green and oil dot filter 😉

Guy Rump
Looking good, following. 👍

Danumurthi Mahendra
Great progress. What do you think about the figure detail and posture?

Łukasz Gliński
Very nice build and photos 👍

Björn Leichsenring
It's nice that you like it

Dieter Bihlmaier
Looks fantastic! (despite the small scale)

Matti Thomaes
I honestly thought that the first picture was the real thing, great work on the build and the photography

Ben M

Danumurthi Mahendra
Must be huge I bet!

gorby
Very nice work!

Robert Podkoński
Cool stuff! Is is made from scratch? The wings look like taken from MiG-15....

Danumurthi Mahendra
Out of the ordinary!! Wow

gorby
WOW fantastic!

Fergs
Where can I find instructions sheet for this kit

Michael Kohl
Most impressive stuff. Each and every model would have deserved an album of its own. Very good photography too.

gorby
WOW! The ships are particularly stunning. I agree with Michael, they each deserve their own album.

Rui S
Excellent work allround 👍

Tom B.
Some absolutely gorgeous stuff there 👍

Treehugger
Nice! 🙂
Question: Are you selective about which scale model kit to build, and do you place limits on yourself? For example, setting a limit to how much you want to clean up or fix a flawed scale model kit.

Danumurthi Mahendra
Very impressive work
