JD_LincsUK Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 When I mentioned buying this 1/48 model about a year ago I was asked to post some pics when it was completed - so here you go: yes, I had some issues with it - mainly the old Kopro moulds, but it turned out quite okay, I think :) 2

SESova Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Nice work man,I like it. Смрт фашизму,слобода народу!
JD_LincsUK Posted July 31, 2012 Author Posted July 31, 2012 Thank you. I couldn't say how many hours - I built it over a 3 month period, working on it for a few hours most weekdays. I did lose some small photo-etch parts and some were too small for me to manage, so it could have been better. Eduard have just released a new version of this model with better mouldings and different paint schemes.
Cali Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Did you paint it your yourself also? If so that is freaking awesome man! i7-4820k @ 3.7, Windows 7 64-bit, 16GB 1866mhz EVGA GTX 970 2GB, 256GB SSD, 500GB WD, TM Warthog, TM Cougar MFD's, Saitek Combat Pedals, TrackIR 5, G15 keyboard, 55" 4K LED
JD_LincsUK Posted July 31, 2012 Author Posted July 31, 2012 Thanks, Cali - yes, I used several different types of paint and some commercial wash for the dirt and weathering, airbrushed on the outside and brush-painted in the cockpit and details. 1
WildBillKelsoe Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 I LIKE. More please!! AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
JD_LincsUK Posted July 31, 2012 Author Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) Thanks. Well, this is the only high-detail model I currently have - might get some more in future, but I have lots of 'normal' ones I'm building in the meantime - like the MiG-15 attached. I'm just setting up a website which will show my models and include a building blog - I'll put the link in my sig when it's ready, if it's permitted. Edited July 31, 2012 by JD_LincsUK
