ICM 1/72 Tupolev Tu-2T
I built this kit for a review article for IPMS USA, so can only post a few photos. To see more, and read the build review (tough kit to put together!), visit the review article: https://reviews.ipmsusa.org/review/tu-2t
As much of a slog as it was (slowed me down for months), I'm still very glad to have a Tu-2 in my collection, as I think the Tu-2 and Pe-2 are two of the best-looking Russian WWII warplanes around!
The painting on the is excellent , as is the entire aircraft.
Fantastic result, Greg @gkittinger
Article and the extra pictures on IPMS is great as well.
Your chosen scheme and the weathering of this build is excellent.
Well done.
Awesome work on the canopies.
Very impressive. TWO torpedoes! Quite a load carrier. Model looks great like the weathering a lot.
Beautiful results Greg, paint & weathering look very pleasing
Another beauty, Greg. Well done!
Another impressive build! Great job. Camo scheme is really cool
A really good looking aircraft Greg and a convincing, great conversion into the model - congratulations on this result! In addition, I think the photography is first class!
Sharp work Greg!
Nice work on what is known to be a "difficult kit." Very good result!
@tcinla Yeah - "difficult" - that's the word... 😉
Nice work! The paint job is superb!
It is always a sheer pleasure to see one of your finished models, Greg! Each one is a small masterpiece in its own manner, the specific Tu-2 being no exception: superbly built, painted and weathered.
Congratulations!
Awesome @gkittinger
Difficult? Sounds like it was more of a pain than that, but your perseverance certainly paid off. Another beautiful build Greg @gkittinger. Good IPMS article.
Very nice! A super build, sir.
Nice work, Greg!
Nice work Greg, fantastic looking finish. Great looking build!
Awesome work on this model and the IPMS article, Greg.
Excellent work, Greg.
G'day Greg (@gkittinger),
I agree on the good looks of the Pe-2 and Tu-2.
That is also an interesting camo scheme.
Back when I built 1/72 ('70s and '80s) I would have loved to have a Tu-2 kit.
I know there is one in 1/48 but I haven't seen it in any of the local hobby shops.
A great build and excellent paint job, as usual - it is hard to believe it is 1/72.
Liked!
