Yep, Dragon do a few VERY nice kits in 1/72 - I have their He 219A-7, He 162 (packaged as the 'Mistel 5' with the Ar E377a and trolley), Ar 234B-1, Ta 152H-1, and now Do 335A-1.
I would love to get their Horten IX V3, which surpasses the Revell kit mainly in having full engines...(Their Ta 152 and He 162 also come with complete engines.)

These days you can get some Dragon 1/72 kits cheaper too - Italeri's Mig 15 is ex-Dragon, as is Revell's 'Mistel 5'. I think their Do 335A-1 kit has been reboxed by Revell now, too.

Just bought that from Squadron.com... Now I have no excuses for messing up figures... Except may be the lack of figures in 1/48...

I can't help it, but after looking at the WW2, post ww2 and cold war Russian aircraft, its hard for me to believe that the Russian design bureau and its petitioners ever had an original thought. Shameful but effective.

THX friends. I hope I can start assembling as soon as possible.But I have some other models in progress and these have to be finished firstly.
In addition, my new compressor and an airbrush have been delivered.I had bought them before I went into the hospital, but today these were delivered to my friend's hobby shop.

Should be a good one there Wojtek! My brother built a Il-2 made by the same company, but I don't know how it built. I will have to ask him.

It is one of the nicest models of Il-2 I have seen.Zvezda offers two kits of Il-2, no.7279 and no.7286.I have this of no.7279 waiting for assembling.
