Cool topic! 👍

Very interesting, but the S2 is this scale must be tiny! I will be watching for sure!

Robert Podkoński
Watching with pleasure!

Great job so far, Peter!
Watching with great interest. I have the Rothmans and Canadian Reds kits in my stash, too. I built the kit many years ago, and remember that the decals aren't opaque enough.
I remember as a kid, seeing the Canadians Reds (and later known as the Rayban Reds)at a couple Airshows in my home province of Alberta.

Villiers de Vos
This little model is turning into a beautiful little gem.

Cuajete
Well done so far 👍

Peter Mollenhauer
@Gordon - You are right, I still remember the decals, but.....at the moment I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they will at least work and not disintegrate, haha

Thanks for your mental support so far, mates! 🙂

Ben M
You should definitely coat them before using them

Peter Mollenhauer
The decades-old decals are doing surprisingly well! They need an awful long time to soak and even then won't get off from the paper on their own, but otherwise they don't mind being pulled off by tweezer! Lucky me! 🙂

Ben M
👍

Cuajete
Great, Peter! 👍

Nicolas
Great result. 👍

Gordon Sørensen
Looks great, Peter! What paints did you use for the red and white? Did you use a primer?

Dave Flitton
I didn't know how beautiful the new Airfix kit was. You have done some really nice work!

Evan B...
Thanks Dave. It truly is a wonderful and well thought out kit. Some parts are a bit fiddly, but I'm so glad I decided to grab it on a whim at my local hobby shop.

Just a note, Vallejo pastel blue is a very good match for the KA-27 interior after researching the real cockpit and experimenting with many grey blue colors from Vallejo. I would recommend Vallejo 70.901. This picture was taken to show the color on the cockpit floor. I am still waiting for the aftermarket cockpit seats before I go any further in my build.

Mr D
Brilliant 👍👍 l like Velejo paints, l purchased the big main colours box and can mix almost any colour out of them.
The white and yellow is only letdown as very low in pigment!!
I purchase AK Intense white and yellow and they .. knock it out the park.. Brilliant.
I'm building a HB at min and it's not giving me accurate paint colours! Also some areas n parts no paint colour mentioned! Good old internet to the rescue.
Good luck with it..nice project 👍👍

Mina Ro
Yeah thats the one thing I dislike about the Chinese kits, very little paint callouts and no data on the units in the decal options offered. You really have to dig real data to find out and while it can be fun and a learning lesson. I bet a lot of modelers find it annoying. These companies need to do better for the price of kits these days.

👀 thinking of building my first helicopter soon

Work on the T-34-85 continues. Another first for me is pre shading an AFV, having tried it a couple of times on aircraft with limited success. Also tried post shading for the first time on this one too.

Dammit! Why did I never think of using a rubber band to hold the tracks in place while the cement set?
Everyday is a learning day 😁

George Williams
Never seen this before but it looks fabulous.

David Orr
That is very nice. It's good to see an unusual subject like this. I think I had a Matchbox car very similar to that.

Spence Wilson
@George, thanks! Concept car from the late 60s. Always been one of my favorite concepts.

@David, I know Hot Wheels did a version in 1970 and Matchbox did one in 1971. Pretty sure I had the Matchbox version as well at some point.

Alexander Grivonev
You actually managed to order a kit from this website?

Christian W
So cool to see this one build! Great! I love those old prototypes and how they saw the sports car for the future.

Spence Wilson
@Alexander, I have been buying the SMP24 kits for about 4 years now. It was not easy to find or purchase them in the beginning but I have been a pretty consistant purchaser since. I am not sure how many actually get out of Japan or Asia for that matter. Definately not easy or inexspensive to obtain.

@Christian, thanks! I am also a big fan of this era of prototypes, most concepts from the 70s though the 90s I felt really captured what it meant to create really wild and intersting concepts.

Robert Podkoński
Fantastic model of a fantastic car!

Spence Wilson
@Robertt, thanks very much.

Marcel
Great build of a unique car. Love the color.

Mr D
Very nice, great subject too👌
Do you know who the designer was ??

David Orr
@MrD It's got a Bertone logo on the side of the engine cover.

Ekki
Watching
