Wow ! Very nice paint job, very neat, i love it !

Was it painted free hand?

 

The underside weathering is very realistic.

 

Definitely, at this time, Su-25 are very fashionable !

 

Your czech color scheme is great, i think they are the same colors on Mig-23 (i have to check that). If so, i will certainly draw my inspiration from your colors for my future Mig-23.

Thank god for bad photos - they give such nice feedback! Thanks guys.

 

Zero77: the painting was done using cardboard stencils and rolls of blue-tack. Freehand painting is still beyond my skills. As for the MIG 23 that's also on my to do list (sometime around 2078) I just love the Czech colors.

 

Harv: thank you for the photos. I chose not to use the nose art as it would pin point the plane to a 2 hour period of its life. This way I get a little more artistic license to play around.

Close, but still no cigar!

Need a little help here, or at least just some advise. The decal roundels worked fine when I put them on, but when I gave them a light wash they turned out with very visible cracks. Could it be the Future varnish I sprayed on top? I don't think there is anything wrong with the decal it self

Apart from that, this is as far as I have got:

Move along, folks! Nothing more to see here.

Check out "Ready for inspection"

 

Thank you for all your nice comments

 

Not entirely true Stormer. Through using the "search" function of the boards I stumbled upon your topic.

 

I'm really curious if and how you treated the cracks on the decals? Was it the Future? Was it the decals?

 

Thanks, Erik.
