Introduction
Armory Models of Ukraine are fast making a great name for themselves with new and interesting kits so when they asked us to use several of them to create a scene, I jumped at the chance. For this little vignette I used the new Su24M Fencer D (AR14702), three sets of their new PAG-14 ‘Soviet Modern Concrete Slabs’ set (AR14705) and three of their airfield truck kits; AT3-4-131/ATZ-4-131 Refeulling Tanker (AR14803), AK3C-75M/AKZS-75M Oxygen Truck (AR14805), and B3-20350/VZ-20-350 Air Tanker (AR14804) which are all based on the same basic sprues of a ZIL-131 chassis.
The Build
I started with the star of the show; the Su-24M. The build starts with choosing your wings; extended or swept. After looking at photos of Su-24s parked on various aprons and seeing wings both swept and extended on parked aircraft, I went with the most common; extended. Once you have chosen your wings you sandwich them between the upper and lower central fuselage. The wings fit well, but the top and bottom of the fuselage didn’t quite line up. To solve this, I set one side and let it cure, then lined up the other side and it pretty much set right with just a little fettling required on the joint.
