Bryn Crandell Very nice build! Awesome paint work. The cockpit is amazing.
02. August at 21:20:04
bobinspokaloo Such nice work!! So many questions!!

Which gloss finish was used before the pin wash? Is it acrylic or enamel? Did you wait until the wash dried before cleaning it up? What did you use to clean up the wash?

Great build.....
10. August at 17:18:51
Ricardo Reis The varnish is Tamiya X-22 thinned with Lacquer Thinner. You should NOT use enamel varnish when you use enamel based washes, like I did, it would mix up. Yes, I wait for the pin wash to dry and then simply clean it with cotton swabs. If the wash accumulates in a difficult place or is difficult to remove, I use some White Spirit or Odourless Enamel Thinner in a brush or cotton swab to remove it.

27. February at 07:57:53
Ricardo Reis Kit is really nice. Could probably have a better fuselage and wings fit, but no big deal - really fast build, that I'm doing while waiting for the paints of the F/A-18 and Mig-21 builds to dry! :)
27. February at 10:34:26
Dan Cook I have had the same issue with getting the wings to fit. I had to use some sprue in the cockpit area to spread the nose to fit the wings. I have boxed it up at the moment and I am going to come back to it. Frustrated me so lost my mojo a bit on it.
16. March at 11:00:38
Ricardo Reis Yes, the macro fit is a bit messy, but I think it is not as bad as it seems. Furthermore, the join lines are aligned with natural panel lines, so you can get away with a lot of messy repairs. Because of this, I used more Plastic Perfect Putty than I usually do, because it is quite easy to apply and clean with water, without much worried about sanding afterwards! :)
16. March at 15:56:45
Wim van der Luijt I like your pre-shading technique with the hard edges between panels
16. March at 16:32:32
Ricardo Reis Thanks. Let's see how much of it is visible in the end! :)
16. March at 16:45:05

Martin Oostrom Incredible paintwork Ricardo, very good.
I don't know if it's possible, but I think the black decals on the fuselage could use a bit of fading. The whole plane is (perfectly?) shaded and faded around the panels, and the black looks too uniform on the pictures.

Wish I could paint like that…..
24. June at 09:45:39
Michael Hickey I think she looks sweeet, you could always say that the markings are fresh, they don't repaint the whole plane when putting on new markings, but Martin does have a point, your call of course Ricardo. Well done
24. June at 09:49:03
Ricardo Reis Yes, I think you are both correct. The thing is these CAG planes are always clean. I would say the markings are OK, but the gray color got a bit too beaten...

Adam Gudynowski I would say that such a new kit had better fitting...
17. January at 11:42:21
Adam Gudynowski I've just read about PE HUD not fitting the windshield. Can you imagine that exactly the same problem is with Kinetic's Su-33?
17. January at 11:59:08
Ricardo Reis Yes, unfortunately you are very right. I saw Doog's Models' video on Youtube last year and he *cuts* the PE to fit (!!!). I was expecting that he had done something wrong, but it was not the case - the PE really d is too big.
