hi chris the su-34 looks really good in the yellow primer? the kit i think is based on the prototype so did you have to do any modifications or is it OOB, hope to see it in person at newark
cheers craig

Now that does look different, Chris, it's not often that a modern jet is finished by a modeller au naturel. Top stuff!

Awesome build so far Chris. Looking forward to seeing the finished model.

All the best.

The model is out of box, it is just the scheme that is different.

Looking good chris!
It's nice to see the SU-34 in something other than blue camo or dark grey and blue!

Very very nice. Love the "bare" look.
