1:72 Kitbashed "F/A-57"
Some time last year, I murdered an Italeri F/A-18E and I believe it was a Zvezda T-50 (2725).
First real attempt at kitbashing and I'd say the result is very crude.
I used a part of the Hornet's fuselage and joined it with the Su-57 after cutting off its nose. Lots of Milliput and sanding.
Instead of using the stabilizers of the SU-57 I used the one from the Hornet.
I tried to recreate an enclosed cockpit like some fighters of the Ace Combat Series use, didn't really work out well, though.
For the camo I tried to somewhat recreate that USAF scheme used on the F-22. I don't know what it is called.
It was a fun project.
I really like futuristic or let's say fictional aircraft. I hope I can do something like that again.
