Thank you Simontie - I don't use varninshes on top of clear parts (not even AK Gauzy) if I can avoid it; actually, in this case, I polished the parts using Tamiya polishing products and it worked out OK.

Nice build so far, Ricardo. Like the idea of a spacer in the wing. I have used that idea to widen a fuselage and reduce gaps at the wing-root.

Hi Ricardo.
Is this a re-box of the old kit or a new release?.Wonder what the Airfix kit stands up.

Nice progress!
@David Taylor: The Airfix kit is very nice but has no rivet detail from the box. I've built the MR2 version last year: Avro Shackleton MR.2 Airfix 1:72 | Album by centuryfan (1:72)

Hello David, it's a new tool. Compared with the Airfix I believe the main differences are more surface details on Revell's and Airfix's has interior, which this one is mostly lacking; Thanks Bernd, love your model, mine still looks years away from completion!!!

Continuando a conversa de hoje a Spotmodel.com em Espanha permite procurar o que há. Tem várias marcas de decalques Studio 27, Reji, shunko e Tabu design. O problema é só terem para os modelos de 2001 e mais recentes. Além de serem mais caros que o kit????

Coming on board! I want to build this very same model in the next 5 years so watching closely! The Eduard stuff seem to provide a lot of good, obviously cockpit, but also the gearwell material appears rather useful. Only thing I pity is the Ra'am engines have external petals on... I'd really like to build the "naked" nozzles...
Great job so far, beautiful pit, bird seems to be coming together nicely, looking forward to the camo!

Thank you Slavo - still smoothing out some nasty gaps in the tips of the tails and near the machine gun; other than than, I'll start painting soon; will probably replace the nozzles with resin, because these lack some detail and finesse on the inside

What colour did you use for the engine ?
I like your radio sets although I believe they were more of a greenish colour.

Sorry, I don't remember the color I used - it was some years ago and I did not take note; regarding the radio emitter/receiver pair, this was the best color I found in all pictures, so I went with gray

Bonito dio, com detalhes muito interessantes, como as revistas e o poster, entre outros. Modelo e figura muito bem executados e pintados.
Só mais uma opinião sincera, julgo que o weathering no edifício podia ser mais intenso, com aspecto mais envelhecido/usado/empoeirado, pois a cor e o tom geral é muito homogéneo em todas as diferentes superfícies

Obrigado Rui; sim, o edifício não ficou muito sujo, mas acho que o principal problema é que ficou um pouco azulado - só me apercebi as fotos finais; enfim, tentarei fazer melhor na próxima!

Thanks Clifford; the kit's fit is bad, and the texture of the plastic is very rough at points; engraving is also irregular and detail lacking on the front engines and cockpit; it is, however, the only game in town if you want to build a Yak-38 and it's becoming to look like a Yak-38, so... go for it!

I think I shall sir. You confirmed what I had heard about lack of detail, but not the fit. But that is why they call it modeling right.

Mates, need your help. I'm trying to finish the Yak-38 and I have a question regarding loadout. I would like to hang a couple of UB-16 rocket launchers on the outside pylons, and then a UPK-23 gun pod on the inside of the right wing and a UB-32M on the inside of the left wing. Would this be a probable loadout for a service Yak-38?

I've seen a picture somewhere that has that load except instead of the UB-32M there was an Aphid AAM on one of the inboard pylons.

Thanks Nathan; due to lack of solid evidence, I chose the safe path and will use the UB-16 and UB-32 on both wings; another common loadout I seriousloy considered was no weapons at all, as seen in most photos, but in the end I prefer to have something hanging.
