I still think this is probably one the best models I have ever seen and this is after watching this video about 16 times since it first came out 3 years ago.
Thank you so much for the views! I really appreciate you repeatedly coming back for more! Makes all the making and video editing worth while. Many thanks, The Inner Nerd
Hey, thanks for the video. I'm coming back to the scale modeling after 15 years in model train business. I'm still in model trains but I found new arias especially in weathering works for both hobbies.
Thank you for making these amazing videos! Watching how you assemble and paint your masterpieces has certainly taught me a LOT - and definitely made me a better modeler! Cheers!
Great work, funny thing is though the weapon load you've depicted would stop the aircraft taking off from a carrier with more than half fuel. Lack of catapults and the short deck on the Admiral Kuznetzov stops the SU33s carrying decent ordnance or they won't get airborne.
Stunning work. I'm very impressed and it inspires me in my own modelling. Though personally I'm not a fan of pre & post shading. Your work on the metal areas is stunning and I shall try to emulate it in my next build. Thank you so much for stunning builds
Ho una scatola dello stesso modello ma della Zvezda .....seguirò il tuo video per migliorare il mio in costruzione . Continua sempre così , sei un grande 👍👌👍👌👍👌👍👌👍👌👍👌
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHOWING THE COLORS YOU USED!!! I have all but 3 of the Tamiya colors. I was going a bit crazy trying to find the right colors for a SU-27 and 33 and all I could find were people recommending to buy other paint brands, other colors, or that you had to mix the colors but not tell you how. I found one other video with the Su-33 Ammo MIG paint colors and even then they mixed those with others because they didn't look quite right. I don't want to keep buying more, just learning to mix my own colors. Your work is amazing. I do have to say I was on pins and needles and would even look away when you peeled the masking tape off cause I was half expecting paint to come off too! Overall your skill and obvious love for what you do shows. Really glad you also shared the tools and materials you used. Hope to see more of your work. Subscribing!! Put the list of paint colors underneath in case anyone is interested.

You have to admit. The Russians design awesome aircraft. And this is truly professional model making - I've always wondered how this level of detail was accomplished.
The Inner Nerd I used to weather model railway locos and wagons as a hobby, I have an airbrush and all , I'm guessing you used the overspray and a pice of paper to make the dirt in the panel lines (looks amazing by the way) and do you use tamiya paints and I know from experience that they are smooth and require minimum diluting to airbrush with. Cheers Jack
The Inner Nerd please excuse me for that , I saw the thumbnail and skipped to the end to see the Finished result only then did I begin to watch the full video and write my comment.
Haha yes this is quite a time consuming task if you want to replicate all of the subtle tones in the metal effect. The masking has to be the worst part but worth the outcome in my opinion. Thanks for watching :)
