Model will be again in scale 1/48 with full cokpit and udercarriage and should be available for sale during July/August 2019. Below is 1st picture from 3D render and next pics will follow from test build. I hope you will like this "little" bird.

THX Yoav, I'm trying to get closer to your models, but I'm not so good to get perfect surface like you have. Here are some pics from render after added cannons under fuselage. Now I will add some more weapons and start with paper model .

If I may ask, what scheme are you going to use?

A regular camo, or the Hell Fighter? (Which would be AWESOME)

It would be regular camo fuselage nr. 3922, but I have Hellfighter as well, but this one will be maybe in 1/33 one day :-)

Now I have added some weapons and fuel tanks. Under fuselage are 4x R-60MK rockets and under wings are 2 R-23R rockets. I know that fuel tanks under wings are usually used only for transit flights and in this combination it would be quite heavy for take off :-)

Amazing work. This will be quite the model.

Finally I have whole model unfolded. In total I have 6x A4 pages with over 300 parts in total. I will now add some colours and than I will do some tests to check if everything is OK or if there will be any corrections needed

300 parts!!!! It will be very accurate, I guess how many working hours take the model to be complete. Regards, Tony.
