Cool paint job! I've just started mine. Too bad Hobby Boss has made a typo in the tail decal
Album info
A month after this kit was released there were still hardly any reviews on it, so I just went for it. I know little about Russian aircraft, so I can't speak to the accuracy of the kit, but it builds up very nice with two exceptions:
- the intakes, particularly the FOD ramps. They are PE and a bit fiddly to work with. Nothing major tho.
- the wings. the kit instructions do not show any way of building the wings unfolded, and there didn't seem to be any parts for it provided with the kit. this was pretty simple to solve however, with just a few strips of styrene inserted in between the wing sections they can be made to just slot right into one another.
i'm not sure if this is an accurate loadout. the kit also included fuel tanks for the innermost hardpoints, but i botched one of them early on and didn't care to fix it. I'd assumed I could just move the missiles inward, but the holes for the pylons didn't match up, and I just couldn't be bothered.
i would certainly like to build this kit again, next time in flight.
I used MRP eggplant grey for the top fuselage color, and followed the Hobbyboss color guide for the bottom camo.
