Damn Good Work! Congrats! 👍 👍 - btw: this seems to be the Execuform vac: Howard DGA 15 (Execuform 21, 1:72)

Orlando Rueda
Yes, I was wrong, you are absolutely right. Thank you for correcting.

Spanjaard
very nice result in the melted muuffler

Stefan L.
@Spanjaard thank you, I hope to achieve some nice rust variations at those dented spots

Spanjaard
I am sure you will 🙂

Doubtingmango
Great narrative! Watching

Stefan L.
@Doubtingmango thank's alot, appreciate it!

John
You're doing a good job of adding all the details that Tamiya kits of this era lack. 👍

Stefan L.
@John thank you, im trying my best! 🙂

Duster_d
It looks great! What kind of paint did you use to paint? I also want to build a similar kit in the future, but I can't figure out what colors to use.

Alejandro Vucko
Hello Duster, In this case I used Tamiya's XF-50 Field Blue, I originally painted it about twenty years ago... but I didn't have the complete Argentine decals. and the ones I had dried out over time, since at that time I did not varnish my models. So what you are seeing now is a retouched mockup.

Greg Baker
I don't know why, but this is one of my favourite planes. Nice work!

Duster_d
Alejandro, thanks for the answer! I will look for an analog made of water-based acrylic.

Ekki
Great result!

Alejandro Vucko
Hello Duster.... the XF-50 of tamiya is an Acrylic Paint, anyway you can use Grey Blue (71.005) of Vallejo Model Air

Guy Rump
Very nice result. 👍

Neuling
I agree! A pity that the decals are of inferior quality.

Duster_d
Alejandro, оne more question: is it necessary to put a load in the nose of this model so that it stands and does not fall on the tail?

Cristian A
Great result. These planes made a big impact in the Falklands / Malvinas with their Exocet missiles.

Thomas Kolb
While waiting for some paints to arrive in the mail to continue my MiG-23 build project, I decided to do a very quick build of the Eduard L-39 in my stash. This kit is labeled as a "weekend" build, which might be a bit optimistic for me, but should still be a quick progress.

Clement
Great job on that cockpit.
Following with interest.

Łukasz Gliński
Me 2 👍 That cockpit is astonishing 😮

Harry Eder
Great start! I'll watching 3

Clement
Do you already have a plan for the shades you're going to use? I found the L-39 classic camouflage very hard to get right. I hope you'll have more luck with it.

Mr D
Looking good, cockpit green is 👍 nice.
Coming on good 👌

Łukasz Gliński
@Clement: I think I've seen these colours released lately by Mr.Paiint

Robert Podkoński
Taking a seat here.

Ekki
Watching too.

Clement
Thanks @Łukasz, well spotted!

For the Hungarian standard camo, MRP has released an entire set, consisting of MRP-351 Brown, MRP-352 Dark Green and MRP-353 Light Blue.

Thomas Kolb
Yesterday I spent some time comparing the hue and tint of the MRP paints with my own mix of Tamiya acrylics (as described in photo 26 above), and found them to be absolutely identical. I also found the MRP paints much too smelly and aggressive and hard to adjust if you want to blend in slightly varying tones in panels etc. The Tamiyas can furthermore be used for extremely diluted thin filter applications, while the MRP are block solid.

Clement
Well done on those paints!
I agree with you, Tamiya paints spray great and don't smell nearly as nasty as MRP's.

Cuajete
I was missing this one.
Well done so far, Thomas! 👍

J35J
Great progress!👍🏻

Łukasz Gliński
I see you mixed too much of this colour and used it on the background 😋
Lovely preshading, sth I don't have enough patience for

István Szücs
Very nice build and paintwork!

Cuajete
Very nice painting job, Thomas. Looks fantastic so far 👍

I recently saw that Edward has released the transparent parts of this kit as "L-39 Revised Canopy":
L-39 Revised Canopy (Eduard 7040Y, 1:72)

Do you know what problem the original transparent parts have?

Guy Rump
Looking great 👍

Thomas Kolb
Cuajete, thank you! No, I wasn't aware of any issues with the canopy. To me, the version provided in the kit is good enough, it certainly looks correct compared with photos.

Nicolas
I'm not sure, but the kit photos show onle the multi part canopy. The revised Canopy kit also has a single peace closed version.

Thomas Kolb
Nicolas, yes, you are right. With the new set you also get a closed canopy so the builder doesn't have to join the separate pieces together. I guess it makes for a simpler build.

Cuajete
Thank you mates! 👍

Michael Kohl
Taking a late seat. Interesting background information.

Cuajete
Thomas, I thik that your SK 61 Bulldog album was deleted. I can't see it

Nicolas
@ Cuajete: I tried it direktly from Thomas' albums. There it works, but ther is a notice that comments are disabled.

Cuajete
Thank you, Nicolas 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Lovely shading Sir 👍

Moreno Baruffini
Very nice! This build reminds me that I started a similar kit more thas ten years ago, with a Czech camo and some decals already applied...Now It's om the "shelf od doom" ...Maybe something I'll retake it!

Thomas Kolb
And with a little effort, the project is pushed over the finishing line. Photos will come soon!

Cuajete
Fantastic job, Thomas. Very nice result.
Congrats!

Łukasz Gliński
Fabulous indeed 👍

Cristian A

@Nicolas Danke - thanks 🙂

Ray Loch
Excellent paint and decals, always a big fan of the light blue/Gulf orange paint schemes.

George Williams
Very, very nice.

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

nikfrost
really tidy build!

Vincent
Great result! The livery looks amazing indeed🙂

Kyle DeHart
Beautiful result!!

Andrew dyson
Thanks mates for the kind words and compliments and likes. The kit was a straightforward build and I plan on building another one soon

Swapnil Datta
Great work mate! How did you find the fit of the parts. Would you say it's Tamiya level?

Kyle DeHart
Awesome!! One I'd love to build one day. Great work so far.

George Williams
Looking good.

Swapnil Datta
Thanks guys. Unfortunately it will be on hold for some time as my holidays are finished 🙁
@Kyle DeHart I hope you can get to make this kit!
