Nathan Dempsey AuteurAdded an album for the Su-25M Ukraine build. Today is more work on the cockpit area in preparation for closing it up. Actually closing it up will be delayed until a new kit arrives since the front canopy was a bad mold.

Nathan Dempsey AuteurWork continues. Today I shaped a very large etched part for the cannon vents and the carved the kit to make it flush. This is the largest etched part I have ever attempted to use.

Nathan Dempsey AuteurWelcome karatel 👍🏼
Work continues. Closed up the cockpit, added chaff/flare dispensers, and I'm currently test fitting the Master pitot tubes after drilling out the holes in the nose.

Nathan Dempsey AuteurThank you very much mates. I'm very humbled by such praise from a group of excellent modelers.
CaptGPF: The Foxbot masks were excellent!

Nathan Dempsey AuteurUkrainian national colors added to the belly, tail, wings, and fuel tanks. A duel use of boosting national pride and taming those trigger happy AA gunners.

Shar DipreeThe risk of friendly fire is probably higher. than the risk from enemy AA.

Nathan Dempsey AuteurWork continues. Today the decal application has started. I am very pleased with the Kagero decals depicting the exact plane in my research photos. My only problem is that the Kagero set did not include the rather unique intake & ejector seat warnings. So now the entire project is at a halt until another set of decals arrive.

Nathan Dempsey AuteurSome weathering on the fuel tanks while I await delivery of more decals.

Nathan Dempsey AuteurFinal parts being completed. Today I worked on the NATO compatible pylon as used on the Su-25. Mine isn't perfect, but close enough.
