Title: YAK 27 Starship ?
Post by: killnoizer on March 04, 2025, 07:20:32 AM
I build a Yak 27 and do some modification, at the end it should be a Starship .

Standard wings

My version

Also the glashouse at the front is not very good, so i placed a F14 tip there .

Sad, the cockpit is not correct in line with the fuselage, don't know what to do with that ...

Build over it, turn upside down and do the cockpit there wherever you want.

Great shape though really like it

I have no special idea for a paint job, and so i continue with standard silver .  Maybe i will do a massive aging  ... ?

Or cover it over and cut a new one in about the same place?

As said, an interesting build.
Would it also work as a canard version of the original?

Agreed! :thumbsup:
And using the number tabs saves cutting card, and uses something that's usually sent to the bin.  <_<

That's just the basic part, they need to be sanded down to micro size, it does'nt make sense to use anything else  :thumbsup: 

The two rings on the right side should be placed on the tube later

Ghost hour, midnight job .. went so semi good. Those parts are very small but could give a sweet spot in the Design of the ship.

Much work this week, trouble with the car, just very short time on this build.
But the guns are mounted and we can leave for the weekend.  :thumbsup:
