This Su-24 model in 1:72 scale by Zvezda, assembled by Anton Gorlov, immediately grabs attention with its superb weathering. The subtle weathering gives it that “real-world” look as if it’s just returned from a mission. It adds depth and character, bringing the model alive on the display shelf. I love how it doesn’t look overdone — just the right amount of wear and tear, making you feel like you’re looking at a snapshot of history.

Talking about history, the Su-24, affectionately known as “Fencer” in NATO terms, is quite the fascinating aircraft. It was designed during the Cold War for low-level penetration missions, which often required it to fly under challenging conditions. Its versatility and durability made it a key player in various air forces. There’s something intriguing about how these pieces of metal have stories intertwined with world events.

This model captures that essence beautifully. What I find particularly interesting is how models like this don’t just showcase engineering but also tell stories. Anton’s work brings out the rugged charm of the Su-24, making it a worthy piece for any collection. It’s not just about the aircraft; it’s about what it represents. If you ask me, this is why model building is such a rewarding hobby.
