Hi folks!
Here is my thread for this ICM kit. First time I build this unknonwn Russian manufacturer and intend to do russian winter camo, using the 'haispray technique'.
Artbox:
Sprues:
3 sprues with some parts not to be used (depending the version to be built):
Decals and transparencies:
Manuals:
Very SIMPLE. Difficult to 'read' (unless you know cirylic!)
Painting instructions. Black & white??? No kidding!
After some ressearch, have found on the internet the possible versions:
"Black Cat"
"White Cat"
"White 22"
And the one I´ve choosed: "White 64":
Started with painting the cockpit and inner wheel well using Humbrol 106 enamel:
Front pannel and inside the cockpit & details:
Wings:
Closing fuselage:
Filling:
Sanding:
Prepare for painting:
Exhaust pipes were painted with "Rust":
and after some real 'rust' effect:
Wheels with Tamiya Black:
as well as propeler & spinner:
Mixing these two Tamiya for the underside:
Final result (Damm! Lost the pre-shading!)
:
After that, the upper side painted with Hu 150 (Forest Green):
Then, Masking and preparing for the Revell 9 (Anthracite Grey):
Anthracite applied:
Masks off:
Landing gears done!
Since After apllying the clear-blue underside, I´ve lost the pre-shading, I´ve done a POST-shading:
After some clear/gloss varnish and resting for some days, I´ve applied the HAIRSPRAY! Then, the Tamiya Acrilic white for the winter camo:
Then, the big´time!!! With an old tooth brush, doing the effects! This is the result!
Time for decals ! Luckly they were not that much!
Weathering!
Close=up!
Underside:
Propeller: checked !
And the final reveal !
Hope you liked it !
See U next thread !
Happy modelling!
