Uma Model Av-8b II plus - Litening centerline and Gun Pods gau-12, 1/48
skuki replied to skuki's topic in Jet Modeling
thanks, a simple mislabeling gave me a headache 😄. I'll have to pass on fixing the crossover. Probably there are some more shape issues, but I'll try to do it OOB, besides Rockit sets. Btw, both FL decals are on the way. -

Thanks man! helps a lot I saw this "square" panel on the funnel, and it seemed to me that it is intended for the pylon, I was hoping that I am right because that would be the most simple solution - only to remove it (cut off). Do you maybe know, in step 9 (Uma instructions), which part to choose for option with both Litening and Gau-12 pods? Part D3 or D2? -

Hi! I am building the kit, but it seems you can only choose between centerline or gau-12, you can't use both. Also, don't get the Litening pod, only Lantirn. I am building the AC from 2013, Afghanistan, that carries both Litening (I think, or Lantirn) pod and Gau-12. So can somebody please explain what kind of pylon to use with Litening pod, that is mounted together with gau-12. Because I can't use the one provided, ti is too long and blocked by the bridge between Gau-12 pods. Was this bridge modified, in order to fit the centerline pylon, o

Yes, I've tried to get that feeling thanks I found one more close up from the other side and few pictures of seats that are inside, I've spend around 25-30 hours on the seats (a lot more than ZM kit deserves)

Hi, thanks all, glad you like it 👍 Regarding the photography - The camera is Nikon Z5 with 50mm 1.8 I use tamiya photo studio. I use a lot of cheap very cold led lamps (5k or 6k, "white" light) all around the photo studio. If you do not have enough light should be a big problem. Simply make exposure a bit longer (you need to use stand). but very important is using focus stacking option on the camera - camera takes a lot of same pictures while on stand, only it moves focuses. And then I combine all these pictures into one

Hi, just a quick question. GWH provides two front wheel bay. According to them, left one is for Russian Su-27, and right one is for Chinese and Ukrainian ones. Is this correct? I didn't know that Russian Su-27UB has so different wheel bay than theirs single seater. Thanks -
so, because they said "we will make the best F-14 ever" we have 236 pages but if they said "we're going to make the best F-14 we can" all this would have been avoided and we would have, how much .... 12 pages?

and add to tamiya 50 eur for kasl wings ... also for the very same starting position

I don't disagree that models should get criticism. I disagree with the the way it was done. I am a modeller and would like to see some future releases from AMK (we would all I think) But I think that placing a lot of devaluing information based only on pictures from the internet and without any of us having the real kit can be very damaging to a company and people who gave a lot of effort to release the kit. And I don't mean only on discouraging them, but also it can lead to great financial impact. They made mistakes along that path, yes, but still no one can deny that a lot of

not strange at all. it's because AMK kit is the only kit that was exposed to such analysis and red green blue lines raping (sometimes purple joined gang bang), before it was even released. hope amk learned their lesson.

No, but close. I would do such a thing (post a picture) if I had F-14 D in my backyard and AMK kit in my hand.
