ShelbyGT500 Posted January 18, 2020 Posted January 18, 2020 (edited) Hello my friends This is AN-72P at 1/72 scale of TOKO. I started this birdy many years ago and it is the only one abandoned project Why? Horrible plastic material, raised panel lines and no rivets . .. no details, horrible manual , etc etc So now it is time to put on the helmet and the body-armor and finish the Chebourashka: And this is one of the examples at this $%^t - the window clear part of the left-side door: But we will fix it Ok guys, thanks for watching as always and Cheers Edited January 21, 2020 by ShelbyGT500 Tony T, Dart_Schatten, Gazzas and 10 others 13
rigor Posted January 18, 2020 Posted January 18, 2020 Pretty cool. The Russians build some odd looking aircraft ShelbyGT500 1
Out2gtcha Posted January 18, 2020 Posted January 18, 2020 Very cool! I think the Russians had a seaplane/flying boat with similar engine config ShelbyGT500 1
Jack Posted January 18, 2020 Posted January 18, 2020 fascinating design, had those visit our airport frequently in the past. Jac ShelbyGT500 1
JAWS Posted January 19, 2020 Posted January 19, 2020 That is an extremely odd aircraft, keep the updates coming. ShelbyGT500 1
ShelbyGT500 Posted January 19, 2020 Author Posted January 19, 2020 And the next update The door is fixed and detailed : Well if the door will be open, we need a ladder: The wheels from the kit are horrible - soft rubber , the "rims" - far from the truth, so I will use the resin wheels: Also scratched antennas, pitot tubes and screen-washers: Well that is for now Cheers guys.

Kagemusha Posted January 19, 2020 Posted January 19, 2020 Another super-interesting subject, thanks for sharing. ShelbyGT500 1
mustang1989 Posted January 20, 2020 Posted January 20, 2020 Looking forward to more of this kind of work here. Awesome! ShelbyGT500 1
ShelbyGT500 Posted January 26, 2020 Author Posted January 26, 2020 And it is painting time - first black primer, light the panels with some white, pre-shade the panel lines whit nato brown. And start with bottom side - aluminum, some hair spray and salt. After 20 minutes first layer of dark blue for pre-shade, after that the main light grey-blue color. When it dries completely I will cover al with high diluted main color. Also start with other parts: Thanks for watching guys. Cheers Out2gtcha, LSP_Kevin, Gazzas and 4 others 7
Out2gtcha Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 Wow, cool! Those pre shade colors are really interesting looking Jack and ShelbyGT500 2
ShelbyGT500 Posted February 8, 2020 Author Posted February 8, 2020 Hi friends, continue with the upper side of Chebourashka - camo with 50K shades of green :) :) And the weathered lower side of the camo: Well that is for now. The bird is sealed with gloss clear for decals work. When all decals will be on place, we will continue with upper weathering ;) Cheers guys Landrotten Highlander, LSP_Kevin and Kagemusha 3
ShelbyGT500 Posted February 16, 2020 Author Posted February 16, 2020 Next step - decals, sealing, weathering, sealing: Till the next update friends Cheers LSP_Kevin, USMC Herc, Landrotten Highlander and 2 others 5

Out2gtcha Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 Excellent! I love the weird/esoteric nature of this beast. Very cool looking! ShelbyGT500 1
