Dietmar KollmannRonan, you must have eyes like an eagle and you can use your fingers for microsurgery ! Really great !

RonanThank you all 🙂
@ Harry : i used the trumpeter kit and the pilot is from the airfix gazelle helo with some modifications
14 December 2015, 12:29
Clifford KeeslerLooking very nice Ronan, I love the pilot. What detail, Awesome.

Bart Goesaertnice paintjob in the cockpit. interested in the rest of the build.
15 December 2015, 10:17
Dave FlittonThis is awesome. I am going to use your techniques on my build (if I ever get it started)

Julian Herrero aka YuriVery good job , it's hard to believe is a 1/72 model. As far as I can see the kit builds easyly .... Isn't it?
20 January 2016, 05:32
RonanYes, the kit is easily installed and you did not need putty, it lacks a few details . I prefer myself detail rather than buying resin kits.
20 January 2016, 06:33
Bart Goesaertsuperb detailing at a square mm as too speak... but an excellent example that superdetailing isn't about the amount of aftermarket... (but it's easy 😉 )
20 January 2016, 08:13
Julian Herrero aka YuriThanks Roman ... I'll go for it .... I guess it's better than the Zvezda kit ....

John DunbarRonan strikes again! 🙂 Looks awesome!! How will you paint the floors of the wheel bays with the wiring already painted? Or are they removeable?
20 January 2016, 11:06
Harry EderI think they are painted John! The wheel bays from the Su-27 are grey 😉
20 January 2016, 12:45
John DunbarOh, now that you say it, I can make out the slight difference between fuselage and wheel bays! Two different greys. 🙂
May bad, thanks for the info! 😉 👍
20 January 2016, 17:44
RonanMany thanks 🙂
@Julian : the last Zvezda SU-27 SM is very nice too ( it's the same than Revell SU-27SM) but the old one is not wonderful 🙂
@john : the wheel bays are painted in a darker blue-grey than the airframe , if you know the RLM colours : RLM65 for the wheel bays and RLM76 for the fuselage. But i noticed that you can find different colours in the bays and on the landing gear : sometimes light blue, or blue-grey, or grey and even a colour near than RLM02. The landing gear doors are blue-grey, grey or red...
So if you want to make a particular aircraft you have to look carefully the pictures of the real aircraft 🙂

Tomas BujalosNice one Ronan, thank you for sharing, I do learn a lot from your work in progress photos.
20 January 2016, 21:51
MICHAEL WOODHOUSEJust awesome and the bar has been raised so far its out of sight for me! As others have said really good for this scale and can only be appreciated by close photography.

Aris GreyGreat level of detail and nice high-lighting! What camo you gonna make? How you gonna protect the airbrakes and the wheels? Woulnt be better to paint them later?
22 January 2016, 00:06
Ronan@Aris : i will paint the splinter camo. The airbrake is not glued in the open position for the moment so i'll put it down and paint over. The wheel bayls will be masqued with tape.
22 January 2016, 07:03
Bart Goesaertmetal on the exhausts is fantastic, can you describe a bit how you did this?
22 January 2016, 12:22
RonanFirst i apply the primer for metal paint ( gunze), then i paint the stainless colour on all the engine cowls, then a light dark brown overspray. Now i apply a light black spray on the lines, some brown touches here and there, a blue spray only on some parts. With a small brush, i put black paint in the lines, and after i make black, brown, sand points and scratching. When the model will be finished, i will apply a mat varnish🙂 your turn to play Bart 😄
22 January 2016, 18:12
Aris GreyNice exhaust work Ronan. +1 for the camo selection! It's on my plans too!
22 January 2016, 20:53
Scott DuttonLooking forward to seeing the cam on it, must be 3 rolls of tape there at least
26 January 2016, 11:32
Ronanit's true that I do not look at the tape expenditure but only the final result that counts , is not it ?
26 January 2016, 12:25
Bart Goesaertnice paint and masking job. Thx for the info in regard to the painting of the engines...
26 January 2016, 17:03
Scott DuttonLooking great, love your paint stand as well, do you remake for each model?
26 January 2016, 21:06
Martien LourensOne of my favorite jets. Great paint work. I like the camo schemes.
26 January 2016, 22:14
Aris GreyLooking good Ronan! For the light blue what color did you use? I like the flag painting on the pilot too 🙂
26 January 2016, 23:22
RonanThank you, for now i'm at the stage of weathering. For the camo, i used H416 light blue, h82 grey and h25 blue.🙂
27 January 2016, 09:04
Cesar MunizVery nice! did the decals came with the model or they are aftermarket
27 January 2016, 20:07
RonanYes , i did post-shading and highlight the centre of panels. The decals are from a Begemot decals sheet for flankers.
28 January 2016, 10:24
Kerry COXWhat a stunning display of macro detailing.👍
You must have the patience of a saint Ronan. Exceptional work mate. 🙂 👍
28 January 2016, 10:38
Bart Goesaertit's alive, alive.... nice progress....
one question though with regards to the postshade. when the camo divides a panel, do you paint the postshade to the edge of the camo on both sides, or do you quit the post-shading a few mm's from the border of the edge of the camouflage. I hope my question is a bit clear...
28 January 2016, 10:54
RonanThank you Kerry. Bart, For the post shading, i used some dark blue paint very diluted. I make a 3 mm large line on all the lines, it's feehand and centered on the panel line. I use the dark blue for all the camo because it's suitable to each colour under so i don't care about changing colour when camo divides a panel 🙂
You can use the oil colour from Gunze too. I hope my comment is understandable 🙂
28 January 2016, 13:00
Bart Goesaertthx for the info, thought you've made the center of the panels lighter, but you darken the outline... just another way of doing things.
28 January 2016, 13:53
Choppa NuttaImpressive, it looks like a 1/48 scale or larger.
Great detailing, painting & weathering .
6 February 2016, 07:27
RonanThank you mates, she's not finished yet. I 'll add small details and armament in the coming days 🙂
6 February 2016, 09:30
Cesar MunizExelent! very well done! the cannon is out of the box or you replaced it ?
6 February 2016, 17:46
Kerry COXOne of the more stunning examples of fine detailing to be posted here. 🙂
Truly stunning attention to detail on all fronts.
SALUTE. 👍 🙂
6 February 2016, 21:57
RonanThank you all. I still have several projects of copter in head, do not worry 🙂 I have a break with Russian fighters. I bought several russian planes in 1/72 as mig-29 , Su-27UB and SM and the Su-24 ... 🙂
7 February 2016, 21:01
Bart Goesaertmhh, looking forward to these... this one becomes a very nice model...
8 February 2016, 09:20
Spanjaardabsolutely amazing. even more being 1/72.... SU-27 is one of my favourite fighters. you really pay it justice. congratulations.
12 July 2016, 18:14
Ulf PetersenOops!😮
How could I have missed this one?!?
Extraordinary detail and finish work - Congrats, Ronan!👍
13 July 2016, 05:31
H. WiModel building is a form of art. Proven here again. Wish my 1/48 Flanker will look half as good as Your 1/72er. Brilliant!
