Started the Revell/ Zvezda re-boxed, Yak-3 in 1:72 scale, Unbelievably impressed how good the Zvezda tooling is, it literally snaps together it's so sharp n precise.
Cockpit underway, from photograph's l think the grey/ green is right. Pilot next paint job
Revell Yak-3 1:72 pilot n cockpit finished now, l think it's a radio set behind seat? I tried using light brown with mahogany was to get leather look on seat- back, Zvezda tooling has been spot-on making it manageable.
Just Completed on 4/June/2024
Missile's, wheels n landing hook to finish, l try and keep all the delicate/ easy to break-off bits to very last.

Hobbyboss Mig-15 in 1:72 scale.
They don't give much cockpit detail but in 1:72 it's hard to see anyway. Like the Soviet light green on internal parts n gear.
First model after starting back after 20 years... Was an air museum gift.. learned how to camo better now n got airbrush. 8 more built since n 2 in progress ?
Revell FW-190 in 1:72 scale.
I really enjoyed this build 8 different colours in total. Some small fiddly bits n canopy was bit frosted. Will polish soon.

I remember these flying over the caravan park in N.Wales as a kid. Didn't put the aerial at front as would definitely break off.
Plenty of protection for flimsy tail wheel! The last model l built the wheel broke off during building!! Respect to people who get through a complete build with breaking of guns n antenna,s ect .
