1/48 Su-25 Frogfoot





This is the Monogram kit - which has some fit issues, heavily raised detail, and some horrid intakes. It also (from what I've heard) represents an early version sent abroad to an air show, hence the additional antennae on the nose which apparently were not on the rest of the planes. Incidentally, those additional antennae don't do so well with moves and inattentive housekeepers.

It was my first experience using Polly Scale paint, which sprayed beautifully. I suspect, however, that the underside blue is not quite right.

Kit: Monogram
Scale: 1/48
