Title: Yak-1 1/48 South Front (Resetov) Post by: Ohotnyik on September 03, 2011, 07:40:15 AM Jak-1 early 1/48 South Front Resetov
Hello! Right now Im building this one. It is an interesting kit is bears the signs of excelent designing and medioroce producing. The most beautifull Wheel Bays have ever seen in a JAK kit, also interesting and accurate details int he cockpit, realistic oil and water cooling system details. But due to the overflow of the plastic mould the molding lines are unsure and you have to polsih over some of the fine details. Sever joint gap can be found in front of the cockpit. Soon I reach the painting part, and I have a few questions regarding to that. I choose Resetov?s plane from 1942. (http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h257/vadasz/resetov-1.jpg) (http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h257/vadasz/resetovnarod.jpg) The decals were relesaed by AML, wich preents it with a camo paintning. (http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h257/vadasz/resetovAML.jpg) Altough they didn?t recognised the typ well .(canopy) But the Authentic Dcals is now designing their own version of the same decal, where they picture it simply green.( AMT-4?) http://scalemodels.ru/modules/forum/viewtopic_t_31536_start_0.html (http://scalemodels.ru/modules/forum/viewtopic_t_31536_start_0.html) (http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h257/vadasz/resetovru.jpg) Wathcing this poor quality picture, it is really hard to decide, but I found the AML-s camo painting to be more realistic. Or not? For me the Redstar with white sides is a bit troubling on the stabilizer fin, why was it white? Perhaps it was a winter camo painted plane and the technican did some mistake during repaint? It seems possible to me because ont he picture the side lines seem to be bit uncertain, also the wing?s edge. But if that is the case why didn?t the star on the side of the plane made by the same methode?

thank you for sharing the photos of your model. About the painting of the plane, I am for the camouflage, the large black blotches on the nose sides are visible enough. About the irregular white around the star, I think it's just what it seems. You could have the choice between reproducing it as you can see it, or ignore the white border, or make a regular white border for a more aesthetical result.

Not a "neon green" but "EPII Green", as per "Orlov & Nakrasok" research! :DCheers, Mario Title: Re: Yak-1 1/48 South Front (Resetov) Post by: Ohotnyik on April 21, 2012, 09:19:03 PM Hi,
Finaly the two important spring model event (Szolnok 2012 ; and Mosonmagyar?v?r MMS 2012) in Hungary is ended http://www.ambbrescia.com/?p=787#more-787 http://www.modelarovo.cz/moson-2012/, so I have time again to build models. This model can be built easily, but in front of the cabin I had to extend it a little and over the wings the fuselage was too wide. Unfortunatly the quality of the material makes the work difficult because it is too light.

What colour did you use for the interior?

I will not continue the building of this model for a while, because I wait for the set of the Authentic Decals. I hope it will come soon.

Unfortunately the Authentic have not issued yet decals of the 1/48 Jak-1. I waited that untill now, but I lost my patience. Luckily one of my friend has helped me.

Maybe the dark wash of some panel lines could be improved.

The next will be that, but currently I am so happy to be able to paint the signs. Title: Re: Yak-1 1/48 South Front (Resetov) Post by: Johann on August 19, 2015, 12:40:24 AM Allow a little advice? Stitches wing tanks is not worth much to allocate. But Most of the photo you can see that they were sealed up with percale stripe.

Thank you your idea. I have not noticed this untill now, but I will check it. Unfortunately the base material of this kit is very light therefore it is difficult to rescratch it. It creases the base material instead of cutting it. Istv?n Title: Re: Yak-1 1/48 South Front (Resetov) Post by: Ohotnyik on November 20, 2015, 09:08:13 PM Hello,
Finally I have finished. As It was ready the decals of the FOXBOT were issued which I was waiting for for years.

it looks very good. The slogan gives an unique look to the model. Could you use smaller photos, please? Wide size images can't be fully visualized on the screen and increase the trasmission time. Regards Massimo Title: Re: Yak-1 1/48 South Front (Resetov) Post by: Ohotnyik on November 21, 2015, 07:07:37 PM Hallo Massimo!
Thank you. The photo is ok in my computer. I use the direct link from the Photbucket. I load on 1000 picsels wide the photoes. I usually make smaller the surface by using the Ctrl + scroll. I have 19" monitor. What would be the good size for you? Title: Re: Yak-1 1/48 South Front (Resetov) Post by: Massimo Tessitori on November 21, 2015, 08:22:12 PM Hi,
1000 px is good. I had the visualization enlarged, but returning to 100% the photos appear good. My error. Regards Massimo Title: Re: Yak-1 1/48 South Front (Resetov) Post by: Spitfire on November 23, 2015, 09:48:52 AM That looks great, nice job, I wish there was a kit in 1/32 scale
