1/48 Italeri Su-27K Flanker

by Paolo Yuen

--------------------

 

This is a Chinese Air Force SU-27K Flanker using the Italeri kit which many people said captures the  shape Flanker very well.  For for this model I re-scribed the panel lines and unfortunately at the time I was building it there was no stock of any resin cockpit and the nozzle had not yet been released, not the same as my 1/48 Su-27UB that has many conversion parts available!  For the diorama base I added the Trumpeter Jie Fang CA-30 Fuel Truck and I detailed up this model with some Photo Etch steel platform and brass handle!  The crew is From Fujimi, I had to remove their equipment to make more them look like the Chinese Air Force crewmen.
