I worked a little on the Su-9, landing gear, correct masking, started the missiles
Looking good. It appears you had no issues during construction. Did the kits come with the masks?
No, they didn’t.
For the Su-9 I got a set from Montex and the Su-11 from Eduard.
No, no issues with the construction.
But the cockpit lacks detail, at this scale and given the size of the aircraft, I would expect better detailing.
The are other extras if you want to pimp it.. engine, wheels, air scoops and pitot tubes.

What’s your planned finish, NMF?

Yes, there’s no other option for this aircraft.
if i may say: the seamlines of the fuselage may need some putty and sanding.
If you never done this, and as the paint is already there
- put a gloss coat on the whole plane to protect the paint
- after drying, put some tamiya tape left and right of the seam (leave +/- 1 millimeter around the seam open for the putty
- put tamiya putty on and clean away the excess, this should already give you a smooth surface
- move the tape a few millimeters away from the filled seam
- clean up with sand paper 600-800
- repaint
Thanks!!!
