The Trumpeter kit itself is fabulous, is injected in light gray plastic with many details and varied weaponry, virtually no fit problems.

However it has two flaws in its gross form, one almost imperceptible point’s engine section where the separation between nozzles is not correct, and provides all the more serious bow section of the plane. For this there are already set Komplekt Zip correction.

Version:
Opt for a Russian camo rarely seen out of his habiltual white outline and bluish gray. In this case the scheme appears in the Begemot decal set (N° 29 version), see how it comes to a Red 31 belonging to the TBAR (Training Bomber Aviation Regiment) in 1996….

Paint:
Painting is a mix of Humbrol, Mr. Hobby, Vallejo and K4 colors.

For wear and effects I used a variety of techniques: washes, lights, peeling with salt, pigments and Wash Pro – modeler, etc.
