Looking at the photos of Evgeniy Koninskiy’s Su-27UB model in 1:72 scale from Zvezda, it’s the meticulous weathering that immediately catches the eye. The subtle wear and tear and the precise dirt effects give the model an authentic yet aesthetically pleasing look, as if it’s just returned from a successful sortie. The effort put into these details makes the aircraft not just a model, but a story in itself.

Speaking of stories, did you know the Su-27 was originally designed to counter American fighters during the Cold War? The Su-27UB, in particular, was a twin-seat trainer version that didn’t just serve as a learning tool but could easily transition to combat roles. It’s fascinating how versatile this aircraft has been over the years, bridging the gap between training and real-world scenarios.

What makes this model especially deserving of attention is its ability to capture the spirit and history of the real Su-27UB. It’s not just about the build but the way it tells its story through the small, thoughtful details. For any enthusiast, it’s a delightful piece that pays homage to aviation history while providing a touch of artistic expression.
