olgerd83 Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 After a small vacation in Carpathian mountains (its a wonderful place I should notice) I came back home and here the result - the model gets in the shape and is almost ready for painting works. Any ideas how I can make a late-type air brake (with a lot of holes) from this early-type one?

olgerd83 Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 I solved the problem with air brake - I used epoxy putty to fill holes, sanded it and than glued foil, after that I made holes usinga cut medical needle Next step was to paint bombs, I think the process is understood from the photos, unfortunately flash "kills" all weathering effect((( sandokan, EmperorKai, Girlscanplay2 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitali Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I like the girl very much, sorry I mean the Thunder jet. I was checking out the model in the newspaper and couldn't see your Thunder jet! The 500lb bombs look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vitali Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Ukrainian women are the most beautiful in the world! I know, I married one of them Zaporozhye is a nice city! I have been there. Is the airport still in use? They had many IL-76's when I flew in there and Mig-25's the other side of the airport. Your Thunder jet is looking really nice.
