Sukhoi Su-30MK2 1/48 Hobby Boss

August 17, 2020 · in Aviation · 12 · 2.7K

Hi all, this is my last kit. I loved to this plane and this camo along time ago. This is special camo 5th anniversary of Su-30 in Venezuelan Air Force and 200 years of independence. I used resin exhaust nozzles from Reskit,seat from Aires,decals from ModelMaker,pitot tube from Master. My the best mistake was choice acrylic colors AKAN. Not good idea. At last i am very happy, that i finished this kit.

  1. You built an "excellent model," and your photography is A-One, especially the close-up of the 2nd cockpit and the exhaust nozzle. Thanks for sharing ! I like how you wrote on the photos too! Great "camo" paint job.

  2. Very impressive model, Josef. The camo and detail work really show your painting skills. I'm not sure what was wrong with the AKK paints (re: your comment) but they look great in the photos. The Su-30 is quite huge to handle in this scale. It must have been challenge just to hold onto while doing all the intricate work you have put into it. What a jaw-dropping weapons array it carries -more like a naval vessel than an aircraft. Each of those missiles is like a little model in itself.

  3. It’s a gorgeous camouflage and a big bird. The outcome looks terrific, well done

  4. A great and big bird rarely seen under these colors. Bravo!

  5. Ah - another reference for my Aircraft of S. America project! Looks fantastic. I'd love to know the paint references for the scheme (FS numbers, or any other cross-reference I can use).

    • Hi, i know only this. Light grey FS 27722,Grey FS26373 and Dark Grey FS 36173.But i used color set from AKAN No.47313 for Su-30mkk. I mean that is little different.Light grey on set little ochre 🙂

  6. A beautifully done build!

  7. An excellent Su-30, Josef. The camo choice is outstanding, and beautifully represented.

    This is really an impressive build Josef.
    Your work in the cockpit area as well as in the exhaust nozzles make this model stand out.
    The camouflage and the markings of the Venezuelan Air Force gives this model a very singular look.

  9. Many thanks for all comments

  10. The scheme is looking fantastic, Josef.
    Paint job is great overall.
    Nice and subtle detailing.

  11. G'day Josef,

    These large aircraft make a great canvas for some colourful schemes.
