Country: | This is a ZVEZDA 1/72 Stormovik that I built in between big sessions on a large scale plane. I do this to keep myself sane on a big project and also while waiting for paint to dry. I was very impressed with Zvezda and will definitely build another one.
1/72 Stormovik

Maestro, do you remember of what decal maker the decal was?Possible the decal sheet was quite old.In this case I always put on a sheet a thin layer of matt cote.It protects the decal markings agianst the desintegration.
BTW Switcha the IL-2 looks very nice.Did you meet any problems with the model assembling? I'm wondering because my is still waiting for putting together in its box.

The fit & finish was brilliant and the way the rear gun mounts is something that other model company's could take lessons from.
I was highly impressed with with the whole model and would easily recommend it to anyone.  | |

Country: | Hi TL Blade,
First of all welcome to our forum.Glad to see your models.I hope to see much more pics.
But I have to agree with Matt308 a couple of the lead fishing sinkers should be useful.What is more, don't get me wrong mate, you made some mistakes.
The first one is that the Bf109 G and Fw190D seem to be like not finished yet ( lack of national and other markings on them).And secondly,The Dora has had the main landing gear covering glued backwards.
Therefore I would like to ask you for longer staying here with us.You will find here some nice and high-experienced guys you can always ask for a piece of advice.
best regards,
