Another build of the La-5FN fighter. Great....
According to a profile of the plane I found, the spinner should be white painted.
Yep both spinner and rudder are white.

Nice camo on this one. This is the profile I have -
"Nine out ot ten times he is 100% correct....."
'There are two theories on how to win an argument with a woman. Neither one works.'
Typical Zvezda's assembling instructions - all steps shown on one drawing.
Nice choice though. I've build their MiG-3 in 1/72nd scale and it needed a lot of filling on wing-fuselage joints. Hope their La-5 fits better. Looking forward to your build.

Snap.............Great on Lewis, we must be reading the same reviews but I did note that one has to be careful with the detail as to what can and what cannot be seen and I note no star on the upper wing surface.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them.
Lest We Forget
Looking forward to the build Lewis.
Made a start on the pre painting

Wow, this won't take long! It this rate you can build a squadron. Good going, Lewis.
Quick work.........
Question
I'm gonna do an La-7, the white 27 job. I've been looking for the color for the cockpit, where did you get the color number from, and what color is it??????
Planes are so simple....... damned helicopter builds!
The pit colour was a mix of RAF azure blue and Tamyia XF19 sky grey with a wash of Rail match weathered black cribbed from a build review of a 1/48 Zeveda LA5 FN on the net. So done slightly lighter for scale effect.Originally Posted by N4521U
Bit more progress test fit of fuselage halves and wings the large gap in the fuselage/wing joint mostly disappears when the dihedral is set.

Fuselage,wings and empenage together ready for filling the gaps the worst of which is along the port wing root
