Superb build Michael. I'm sure you will inspire many people to go out and buy this kit.

As always Michael, your builds are a pleasure to follow - both the process & the result. You really captured the Sea Flanker spirit through fine details, with the camo/weathering job, which is just 100% spot on, and the extended flaps orchestra at the back of the wings 👍

I really like that you kept the wings down, never was a big fan of the "zipped" optics of this plane - I find the full silhouette & the mentioned flaps a much better choice!

All the best wishes & keep them coming!😉 👍

Thanks Nathan, Soeren, Slavo, and Neuling! I appreciate the kind words!

Slavo, I am really stoked that you approve! I tried to nail down the weathering without being over the top, so I kept it rather conservative as to not distract from the awesome camo, but at the same time I wanted there to be enough to not allow the unique camo to dominate the model completely. I am glad to hear you feel as though I was successful in that endeavor!

Aaaaaaaaaand.... I won first place in the theme contest (I have the Blues) yesterday at my IPMS club meeting! In January I have 4 models to take to the year's "Best of the Best" contest, which is the winners of all 8 quarterly contests (4 theme, for non-theme each year). My winners for 2019 are:

Kinetic Su-33 for the "I've got the Blues" October contest theme
Hasegawa F-2A for the "Japanese" July contest theme
Hobby Boss Su-30MKM for the April non-theme contest
ZM F-4S for the January non-theme contest

Not sure how I am going to get those four models AND my January theme contest entry there (never transported that many models before), but I am sure I will come up with something!

Congrats! 👍 👍 You seem to be quite the Michael Schumacher of your IPMS! 😄

And it´s all well deserved, the topics could hardly have been handled better, details are details and certainly help, but it´s the overall picture and scale impression you handle so well that make the show for me in your builds. Looking forward for many more to come!

Thanks Slavo, Murad, Tim, Spanjaard, Demigod, Maciej, and Jim! I appreciate all the compliments and congrats on my win!

I think this has moved into the pantheon of my favorite model I have built, slightly edging out the Su-30MKM. I really love this particular camo scheme and am really proud of how it turned out.

OMG this is a pleasure to see,. I'm currently building an Su-37 but the colours on the Su-33 are just out of this world compared to the brown/sand recommended.
