Mark Deliduka Posted September 2, 2021 Report Posted September 2, 2021 It took me awhile, but I finally got some finished pics of my 1/72 scale Modelsvit An-124 "Ruslan" aka NATO code name: Condor. I took these on the concrete sidewalk beneath my balcony stairs. I also placed a model of a 1/72 scale Russian T-80 tank next to it for size reference. It was the easiest thing I could pull from my storage tub holding my Russian vehicles. For your perusal gentlemen.... It isn't the best shape it could be in, but it is done. I will possibly work on improving things a bit more later on and might shoot some updated pics then. For now, this bird is done and will be finding a spot on my ceiling soon. Thanks all for looking in, comments are welcome. 1
Mark Deliduka Posted September 2, 2021 Author Report Posted September 2, 2021 Thanks Jim! I appreciate the compliment! I wish we could have run into each other as well. There were so many people there that I didn't meet up with and it was a bit frustrating since I wanted to see so many people. Glad you enjoyed the Nationals and my models.
Stikpusher Posted September 2, 2021 Report Posted September 2, 2021 Wow! That is one big beauty Mark! I am happy to see that you finally whipped this one into shape and completion! Well done! now…. where are you going to put the beast? 🤔
ghodges Posted September 2, 2021 Report Posted September 2, 2021 That thing is HUGE! Really looks nice, and even more impressive in the low angle shots! Congrats Duke, that's going to turn a lot of heads! Gil
Mark Deliduka Posted September 4, 2021 Author Report Posted September 4, 2021 Thank you Carlos! I'm thrilled it is done as well. I appreciate the compliments as well. As for where it's gonna go, I have a spot on the ceiling for it... if I can get to it sometime soon. Thank you Gil! It is huge! It certainly did turn some heads in Vegas indeed.
Bradley25mm Posted October 8, 2021 Report Posted October 8, 2021 Bigger, is better. That turned out great Duke. chris
VonL Posted October 16, 2021 Report Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) Nice model! You also did a great job with the camera angles and the 'scale height ground-view'. Extra credit, for capturing the size and character of the airplane! Edited October 16, 2021 by VonL
Mark Deliduka Posted October 18, 2021 Author Report Posted October 18, 2021 Thank you Bob! I wanted to catch all those angles, but the sheer size of this beast made it difficult to find a place I could shoot said pics! I finally did find a spot, and I thank you ever so much for confirming that I succeeded in what I set out to do.

Mark Deliduka Posted November 5, 2021 Author Report Posted November 5, 2021 Oh yes it is! I still need to find a place to hang it.
