Komentáre
Superb model and beautiful photography!
I also want ro build one, but these Su-27/-33 etc. series aircraft are just huge, even in 1:72.
Nice kit, Im thinking of getting one, how's the fit and finish, is it easy to build?
Amazing. Simply amazing. The super detailing in this kit is on a whole different level!
Thanks for the comments guys!
Seyid, honestly I was not too impressed with the quality of the kit. Considering it is quite modern and all I ran into some fitting issues. There were also many inaccuracies considering some details and parts. The main carriage is simplified, I worked on it about three weeks alone. All in all it is okay I would say, a solid B-
BTW good luck trying to get one, I was fortunate enough to grab mine in 2019 I think when they were available. Now KH is out of business and I have seen these Kits on eBay for around 400€
That's an extraordinary build, great work on all the tiny details...just amazing!
Really nice work Alexander. Kitty Hawk always had a bad wrap for instruction errors and fit issues and normally deserved. I had issues in the bucket load with the SU-35 and F-35B, so i have an idea of the pain you went through. Great project and thanks for sharing.
Thx Gary and Pipeman86!
I had the Su-35 in my stash but decided to sell it and to get a GWH kit. They seem to be on another level just by glancing over the parts. Maybe just maybe I will try and get one of them Su-22s just because there is no alternative except the ancient KP kit
All those details add beautifully to the overall impression. Great paint job on top.

I always liked the looks of this cute but deadly bird and wanted to build one for ages. Especially because of the gorgeous blue-green camouflage. Luckily I was able to get a Kitty Hawk kit a couple of years ago when they were still available for a reasonable price. The project took almost 1 year from start to finish and I used an obscene amount of aftermarket parts and did a good amount of detailing myself. Anyway, here is the result...enjoy!
