Title: 1/72 Ukrainian Sukhoi T-50
Post by: Madhatter on October 01, 2015, 09:03:24 PM

hi all

I build this as part of a What-If Group Build on another site, but thought I would share it here as well.
It's the Revell boxing of the T-50. It's not a particularly nice kit with some fit issues here and there and the surface of the model is quite rough and not smooth at all - but, it looks like a T-50 and that's what counts
I decided to do mine in Ukrainian splinter as a replacement for their SU-27s. I used AKAN paints (new to me as well and I really like using them - no need to thin them either - spray straight from the bottle).  Although they do have a tendency to peel easily when exposed to masking tape
Anyways, I think the scheme and colours lend themselves well to this aircraft and to give it some more buff, I added some spare missiles from an SU-33 kit I had

I couldn't put it better!

I really like how well those markings work with that cool blue fractal scheme.

Those are really nice!!!!!!

Well done, I'm tempted to go over to the shelf of doom and finish a couple of mine, those build just stalled.
