The Su-27 model from Zvezda in 1:35 scale, crafted by Artem Klevtsov, immediately captures the eye with its striking camouflage pattern and crisp details. The paint looks great, blending those iconic blues and grays smoothly across the jet’s sleek frame. It almost makes the model feel like it’s ready to soar off the desk. I noticed the decals are applied with precision, enhancing the model’s realism. It’s fascinating how a small touch like a decal can bring such a vivid sense of authenticity.
From what I’ve gathered, the real Su-27 has a legendary reputation. Designed as a direct competitor to the US F-15, it was known for its exceptional agility and long-range capabilities. Little tidbits like those make looking at models even more enjoyable; they’re not just pieces of plastic but miniature representations of remarkable engineering feats.
Artem’s attention to detail is impressive here. The smooth finish on the cockpit canopy is particularly neat. It’s clear a lot of care went into ensuring everything aligns perfectly. Sometimes I wonder how builders like Artem decide on specific weathering techniques, especially when it seems minimal yet effective. This one leans towards a cleaner look, allowing the natural lines and form of the Su-27 to stand out, which I think works very well for this model.
One interesting aspect of the Su-27’s design is its powerful engine; they say it was advanced for its time, capable of impressive aerobatics. It’s a nice thought to ponder when observing the model’s back view, even miniaturized. Overall, I’d say the combination of crisp execution and vibrant paintwork makes this model a joy to behold. It’s a mix of skill and history that keeps drawing me back for another look.
