Ludvík KružíkThis really is a trip into history. I wish you well with your work on the model. And I'll be happy to follow the progress.
The drop tanks used on the Mig you are building are the original (older) version. They were attached directly to the wing (no hinge) and did not have stabilizing ailerons on the end. This type of tanks had one unpleasant feature. When dropping the empty tank, the tank rolled on the wing. This was annoying because it could damage the control surfaces. Therefore, these tanks were replaced by a new type with stabilizing surfaces at the end of the tank and these tanks were suspended on a wing hanger (tanks of this type are in the kit). This solution eliminated the rolling problem.

Ben MLudvik, thank you for the details. I did not know that. I imagine they usually did not drop the tanks on trainers.
I also masked the canopy last night. The molding of the frames are a bit vague and lots of curves so it will require some cleanup after painting.
27 July, 12:12
Ludvík KružíkBen, you're right that trainer planes didn't usually drop tanks. In peacetime, in normal use, even combat aircraft don't drop tanks (except in emergency situations or exercises).
The purpose of my comment was merely to explain why the tanks on Indonesian aircraft differ from those in the kit.
I look forward to following your progress and wish you a lot of fun building the model and the result to your liking.

Ben MWell the other night I got frustrated with the Vallejo gloss black primer clogging my airbrush, so I added some Mr leveling thinner and gave it the worst orange peel ever as this is totally incompatible with the paint. I thought I could selectively strip the paint with windex but while that kind of stripped the paint it also dissolved a lot of the perfect plastic putty and also dissolved the canopy pva glue and masking. Also I broke off a wing and a horizontal stabilizer. So a bit of a setback.
I have constant problems getting the Vallejo gloss black primer to not clog my 0.4mm nozzle.
18 August, 01:28
Duster_dIt's sad, Ben. These Vallejo primers can only be diluted with distilled water because they are based on acrylic urethane (this is my IMHO). Even Vallejo's Thinner and Flow Improver for acrylic paints does not go well with these primers. The same applies to their polyurethane varnishes.

Martin OostromNot saying this will solve your issue, but they have a video with ratios out: Youtube Video
18 August, 06:50
Sy BarWow that video seam to show it's a lot of hard work to get their primer coat working 👀
I'd go with mr surfacer 1500 approx 50:50 with mr levelling thinner, then if you need a gloss use mr Color gx110 again 50:50 with levelling thinner, sounds just as complex but I've never had this block airbrush and you can get rid of surface issue before you gloss saving the thicker gloss primer obscuring details..
Good luck on you build

Łukasz GlińskiVery sad nwes mate - hope to see you back on this project with the new kit, this one looks fubar unfortunately.

Ray LochExcellent paint and decals, always a big fan of the light blue/Gulf orange paint schemes.
14 August, 23:18
Andrew dyson@Ray I agree, this scheme is my favourite. I have just been gifted the decals for the orange version from the 2011 Macou GP so will be building that one too at some point.
@George thank you
15 August, 21:13
Andrew dysonThanks mates for the kind words and compliments and likes. The kit was a straightforward build and I plan on building another one soon
17 August, 19:17
Swapnil DattaGreat work mate! How did you find the fit of the parts. Would you say it's Tamiya level?
17 August, 19:34
Andrew dyson@Swapnil, fit of the parts was good. I have a small concern over the right side door/air intake but that could be down to user error. I will know more on the next build.
Part count was low with the engine bay being almost a single moulding so it is more a painting exercise rather than a building challenge. Moulding was good though

Fernando ArriagadaGracias amigos por sus comentarios. Me animan a seguir adelante. Ahora, continuar con el techo de la cabina y el weathering
14 December 2021, 20:15
Fernando ArriagadaMuchas gracias estimados. Sus palabras me alientan a seguir adelante. Ahora a construir el techo de la cabina de carga y después el weathering
14 December 2021, 21:19
Fernando ArriagadaGracias Michael y David. Si, ánimo, ha salido mucho más trabajo de lo que pensaba. Ahora en la etapa más tediosa, putty y lijado en los malos encajes.
26 January 2022, 13:17
AlexanderCan only agree with the others - awesome detailing and paintwork! 👍 Will be watching too.
27 January 2022, 03:49
Thomas KolbOMG, that interior and that engine... wow! Nice to see the continuation!

SimontieWonderful love the detail work, in the mists of building the revell kit, but nowhere as detailed as this will watch with intrest

Fernando ArriagadaMuchas gracias a todos por sus comentarios y aliento. Ahora, estoy lidiando con las aspas y la forma de colocarlas en posición de descanso. Veremos si resulta

Ferenc SarkaIt was a really great job so far, but you could still raise the level!

Fernando ArriagadaMuchas gracias Oliver y Dominik por sus palabras de aliento. Estamos ya en la recta final para darlo por terminado. Espero que el próximo pos sean fotos con el Sea Dragón terminado

Fernando ArriagadaDespués de 10 meses declarado terminado este proyecto. Fue desafiante, ya que entré en un área sin mayor experiencia, en la que tuve que modificar muchas piezas, y detallar el interior con scratch. No quedé conforme, pienso que pudo haber sido mejor. Especialmente quedé insatisfecho con las palas del rotor principal. No pude darle la altura para que no se apoyaran en la cola, las desarme y volví a armar tres veces. El problema fue que la base al interior del fuselaje en donde va montado el rotor cedió en donde ejercí mucha presión, al hundirse esa pieza fue imposible darle más altura al rotor y por ende más altura a las palas. Bueno sirve de aprendizaje para futuros proyectos.

SpanjaardTu no estarás contento, pero desde aquí es simplemente espectacular. Un trabajo impresionante.
17 September 2022, 18:31
Fernando ArriagadaMuchas gracias muchachos. Realmente aprecio sus palabras de aliento. Un abrazo desde el sur del mundo

FedericoI'm three years late but I just got STUNNED by the technical mastery shown here, I'm starting this kit right now with folded rotor and tail, and I'm using these pics as a guide 🙂
Congratulations Fernando, this is a masterpiece!!!
17 August, 11:50
Fernando ArriagadaHola Federico, muchas gracias por tus palabras. La verdad fue un desafío grande, y estuve casi un año trabajando en él. Hay que tener mucha paciencia y superar los desafíos que te plantea la maqueta. Si usas el rotor Reskit vas a tener que trabajar con los conectores para que las palas queden en la posición de descanso. Cuentame como va tu proyecto y me avisas para ver los progresos. Un abrazo
17 August, 22:45
FedericoHi Fernando and thanks for the tip! I'm actually waiting for the reskit rotor to hit my mailbox 😄 I'll keep an eye on what you said, thank you so much.
cheers! 🙂

Alex KThank you all, gentlemen, for the interest, comments, likes (and again apologies for the crappy pics of the model). Yes, the plan is to add 1 or 2 figures, I've set my mind on which ones and I'm gonna order them soon - after they arrive, I'll try to take some better photos.
28 June 2021, 17:38
Alex KThanks for the comment, John, and the likes, gentlemen - I'm glad you found the idea interesting! Perhaps a better modeler than me could make something really good out of it - maybe in 1:35...
12 September 2021, 19:06
Bruce HuxtableDefinately adding the true spirit of summer in the south of France 🙂 The figures really add lots.
27 September 2021, 21:38
Alex KThanks again, gentlemen - Jørgen, Bruce, Villiers, I feel a bit awkward with this thing and terrible pics appearing again in the newsfeed - but I'm glad the whole idea caught your eye - cheers, mates!
28 September 2021, 00:45
Łukasz GlińskiWow, that's cool, love it, got hooked too 👍
3 more pics: ewillys.com/2013/02/24/the-women-of-seeps/
28 September 2021, 12:23
Alex K😄 My turn to say wow - thank you Łukasz, I hadn't seen those extra 3 pics!!! And now, for anyone interested, we have definitive markings for at least one seep: 4501-BA8 = NICE 956 = Arromanches I, while Arromanches IV = 3499-BA8...

Alex KFirst of all, let me belatedly thank ALL the mates who have commented and/or liked this little project - if I refrain from showing my gratitude for your interest individually, it's because I feel a bit awkward each time this album bumps up the news feed, since I still haven't posted decent pics of the model (although photos of the originals is all that counts!) - once again: thank you ALL for your interest, I'm really really really happy this project caught your eye... (and - hint: if anyone is interested, my good friend Fyll from SCM Brand: LM Decals
, who made the decals for my little model, has recently found almost the full Life magazine photo coverage and can prepare decals in any scale)2 February 2023, 02:40
Alex K@ Daniel: Yes, indeed, I've seen these other civil, globetrotting GPAs thanks to this article: messynessychic.com/2..-an-amphibious-jeep/ They are very interesting but way beyond my modest modelling skills... Thank you for bringing this up, as more people might see them... and modellers more competent and skilled than me can make something interesting! (and, btw, thumbs up and good luck with your Stalker Landie!) 👍 👍
2 February 2023, 02:46
Ozcan ErtemWell this is a unique model at all. Beautiful with all the figures.
13 February 2023, 05:05
Alex KGuys, once again, thank you all for all the nice comments, much appreciated! I refrain from thanking you individually, because, as I said before, I feel a bit awkward every time this album appears on the news feed, due to the terrible, low-rez pics of my not-so-great model...
6 October 2023, 18:31
bughunterWith the latest changes the pics looks now even smaller. May be you can provide bigger ones? The official default size is now 2160x1440 pixel, with that size you don't have black borders around the pictures.

Christoph KunzNow I know the best car to put those Beach Girls from Stallingrad (Nr. S-3700) on. 👍 🙂
