While I wait for the final parts of my spit to get together I thought I'd start on something new. I just got a Yak-3 from Hasegawa to go with my Revell Mig-3 and La-5 so I'll be working on this trio of Soviet fighters for a bit.
The Revell Mig 3 appears to be the same mould as the Encore one in Dirkpitts thread. Its going to need a lot of filler and was a bit sparse on the detail.
I can't really afford resin kits at the moment so I thought I'd throw a little something together to spruce up the cockpit. Its not much but I think I'll have the canopy closed, so it doesnt need to be. Its progressed a little since this picture, seatbelts and all. But Hopefully this'll turn out right. I'm in two minds about what to do about the colour scheme. Am going for Red-02 and I know green seems the logical choice for the wing colour but I do like the red.
I'd also like to try and find the Yak -1 scheme of Katya Budanova, one of the female Soviet aces if anyone has any references. I can't seem to find much ><
