MiG-31 BM

MiG 31BM in 1/72 Scale by Eastern Express




The MiG 31 is the world's fastest operational fighter. Designed as a fighter interceptor, it was built to defend the swathe of landmass of the Russian federation. It can track targets up to 200 km and engage as far as 120 km using it's primary armament, the R-33 missile.




The kit came from Eastern express. At all cost, avoid this kit. It is poorly tooled, instructions are ambiguous,  a lot of parts do not fit. You will spend a lot of time, sanding, cutting and fitting, rather than enjoy building the kit itself.





The kit with a light loadout of 2 R-33 missiles.

It was painted using Tamiya acrylics - light grey, German Grey, Titanium silver and black. It is weathered using Tamiya weathering master.














after months of hiatus, here she is.

1/72 Su-27SM3 Flanker by Trumpeter





This is my interpretation of the Flanker series, this one I converted into the SM3 mod. The kit is nice and well detailed, exceptional for the 1/72 scale.




How I envisioned it to look like






This is a gold standard in 1/72 scale



No problem with any fit





i had to modify the location of the IRST from the center to slighty to the starboard. Placed some details on the cockpit.







I custom mixed the paint, since there is no exact shade from tamiya. I use tamiya acrylics and some washes. No post shading was done, since reference pictures show no panel indentations. 







Loadout is a mix of the R-27, R-73 and R-77 missiles. 


The greatest challenge is the exhaust and the burnt metal. Tried to replicate it, hopefully I gave it justice.









Handpainted from start to end. Enjoy.
