ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 BOX PACKAGEIt has passed a little since Shilka was released from Hong Model and Meng Model. The Dragon Models Shilka seemed to be at the bottom of my stock and waiting for the nipper. It may not be easy to build because it is too old kit now, but I will try to build it.

ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 MAKINGI am making a chassis. Easier to assemble than the previously built panda hobby Tunguska. Parts matching is not bad.

ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 MAKINGSpeaking of the old Dragon Models Kit, many kits included this kind of caterpillar. Creos Lang, which I made a while ago, was also a similar caterpillar, so maybe the original is Dragon Models.

ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 MAKINGThe Caterpillar assembly is annoying to work on, but I like the type of each piece tracks. Recent kits have become excellent belt caterpillars, so I don’t stop choosing the belt type.

ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 MAKINGThe upper part of the body is a good feeling without strange burrs. It may be a shot manufactured while the mold is new. I purchased it long ago. When I bought it, I felt I had made it that day…

ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 MAKINGThe most crucial part of Shilka is four pairs of anti-air guns. Assembly is easy.

ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 PAINTINGThe decline in motivation occurred at the time of the moving house. Shilka had been left untouched by halfway. In addition, I was losing motivation by looking at a decal yellowish thoroughly.

ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 PAINTING ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 PAINTING ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 PAINTINGA few days ago, I decided to bleach the decal with a bleaching agent and experimented with it seemed to manage somehow, so the motivation for painting is now revived. When mixing undiluted and water about half and half, leaving it for about 3 minutes, it got a little white like this. Since the decal is already dry and crisp, extreme caution is required for handling. There’s a possibility of melting by a too-long rinse in the liquid solution.

ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 PAINTINGThe primary color of the Czechoslovakian army Shilka was Mr. color No.304, olive drab FS34087 70%, and No.22 dark earth was 30%. I thought it was a bit different after mixing them. That’s why Russian green and dark green, Green FS34092, were mixed appropriating to make this color. I’m blowing a bright gradation. I don’t know the correct answer; bright color is easy to do washing later, so I suppose this is just fine.

It is a severe threat to fighter planes flying at low altitudes. Because it is linked to the radar, possible to react to the speed of jet fighters, and it was handy for attack helicopters.

ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 FINISHED WORKCzechoslovakian Army’s nationality marks a blue, white, and red circle; I think the official marking blue is on the front side, and white is on the upper side. The Dragon Model’s old kit has arranged the decals in the same color order left and right, whether Dragon Models was not careful about it. But I used it as it was. I don’t know in detail and only my presumption.

ZSU-23-4V1 SHILKA DRAGON 1/35 FINISHED WORKThere is sunlight in the room, and it is reflected brightly. The primary color was about halfway between olive drab and Russian green. It turned to a khaki color while doing weathering.

I think that the most troublesome is the yellowish part of the clear areas of the decal margin; the marking of the Czechoslovakian army had a little margin, so there was no problem.

    Thanks for the comment! I closed my old website “saimitsutogenkyo” in Jan-2017 and all the contents were moved to this site. The main reason for the moving was because it can not be viewed the previous site from multiple mobile viewers.
