Flogger’D
I remember being so gratified that I managed to paint yellow 23 on her.
OK, so after all the years the front undercarriage may have misaligned slightly- but it’s still a purposeful looking ground attack killer!
And in the 1980s I was trying to add hydraulic pipes out of stretch sprue!
Even had a go at dropping the flaps. For no other reason than I thought it’d make it look better!
Stencils: model-maker’s own!
I seemed to remember the Hasegawa kit being quite well fitting
Nice of Hasegawa to allow the canopy posed open/closed
A bit drafty with those wing fence gaps!!
Ah, the three-quarter view shot! Always shows off a kit well!?
All Humbrol enamels and brushes here!
Cuts a profile?!

Thomas KolbI first thought you threw it together as a quickie after the Tupolev, but I see now that it is an older build. Must be pretty old, I guess?

Andy Ball@Thomas B and K: yes, one of my older ones- but recently smartened up.

Andy BallHi Łukasz, just the pitot tubes and some static dischargers that had broken off. It's one from 1987, I think!

Łukasz GlińskiWe all used to believe by then that Soviet 27s had a 3-tone camo (according to the instructions)😉

Andy Ball@Ł: Have I got it wrong?, I can't remember why I chose the three colours. References weren't my strong point back then!? 🙂

Łukasz GlińskiHad this kit years ago, having the local rebox too and they both provide such camo 😄
Actually they used to look much more interesting:

Andy BallAh, well I'll do a Flogger again another day: maybe not the '27 perhaps a '23? Nice scheme for a WarPac workhorse.
