You guys were unaware that I was in the middle of a move for the last 3 months. I now finally got the model bench set back up. I am going to pick up the SU-24 I started before I moved. To bring you up to speed here is a quick progress report
This is the Revell SU-24 Fencer in 1:72 scale..
Construction was quick and simple and required very little work afterward - good job Revell on this one..
I then painted it model master aluminum and pre-shaded the panel lines
Once that was dry I gave it it's camo job...
After a gloss coat I put on the decals..
Had a 'ell of a time with that step as the decal instruction had completely different panel line layouts than what was on the model, so my solution is was to draw them on myself. I used a yellow highlighter to keep track of where I am at..
In the pic below the right side has the drawn on panel lines and the left side doesn't. (ok it will not be a model show winner but it does give me a way in the future to rectify this type of problem - just a little more practice)
and here is a pic of the completed top of the aircraft. I am now working on the sides and bottom...
