Cristian AThanks Michael for the input, the more I look at the two Tamiya colors the more inclined I get to use them, also I already have them and they are of good quality.
Will continue to post progress.

Shar DipreeLooks good so far. Following.
How good and detailed do you think the kit is?

Cristian AHi Shar, the details are good enough for a 16 EUR kit but the build is not easy, struggled a lot with the canopy and cockpit. It's not a perfect representation of the real Alligator as it is built after the initial variant / prototype (EOP above, no camouflage scheme and paint references for it, no countermeasure system under the back landing gear and the nose is a bit different as well). The panel lines are recessed, so hopefully weathering will go smooth.

Cristian AYes it does!!
Thanks a lot for encouraging me to use it. I was very close to buying this entire paint set instead:
HTK-CS86 Russian AF Helicopt.. 1, Hataka Hobby Orange Line , Acrylic Lacquer, 8x 17ml

Shar DipreeLooks great so far.
What kind of mixing ratio did you use for the ak paint?
20 August, 04:53
Cristian AHi Shar, around 40% paint + 60% thinner. I measure it in pipette drops - example 4 drops of paint, 6 drops of thinner.

Guy RumpLooking good, following. 👍 What do you use the Novus scratch remover for? Is it any good?
27 July, 07:06
Will DosselI use it as a final step before priming to polish out tiny scratches. Also use it on clear parts - I think it gives a more realistic shine to clear parts than Pledge floor wax. First found out about it when I had to polish out a canopy that required a good bit of sanding.

Roland SachsenhoferQuite interesting! Well done, great work on an not so often seen subject.

Thomas KolbWhat an absolute beast! Really beautiful. I will definitely look into the Novus scratch remover set. Does it leave some kind of residue on the plastic (like the Tamiya polishing compounds)?

Will DosselThomas - easily cleaned with a lightly dampened cotton ear bud - I use the anti-static/dust/fog prep from the blue bottle as a final for the canopies. Overall, this process leaves a finish better and more natural looking than what I've seen from dipping in Future.

Thomas KolbIt definitely looks intimidating. Great paintjob too, I like the subtle variation of the gray livery!
