I assembed the cokpit without glue, it is working. But for sure i glued the pearts together of course. This kind of without glue technic is interesting so far.

Unfortunatelly, the starter of ejection seat is missing from the kit. I try to make it from scratch from a wire.

It looks good in 1/72.

Acceptable. Black colour is missing. I try to paint the black lines onto the yellow wires with a pen.

Black colour is ready.
![Album image #20 Album image #20](/albums/img/9/7/5/1745975-30631-81-720.jpg)
Correction is needed around the black. The mask removed the gray two places.
![Album image #21 Album image #21](/albums/img/9/7/7/1745977-30631-64-720.jpg)
Center tank is on its place. I made a hole for the display stand.

Decals ate perfect. Made by Cartograf. The stripe on the fuselage is extremly precise. As long as should be.
![Album image #26 Album image #26](/albums/img/0/4/7/1749047-30631-27-720.jpg)
Lots of stencils. It took me an hour to put everything on the upper part of the left wing.
![Album image #27 Album image #27](/albums/img/8/2/7/1752827-30631-75-720.jpg)
All the decals are in place. Final semi gloss coat is on. Few more touches and the phantom will be ready.
![Album image #28 Album image #28](/albums/img/3/4/7/1753347-30631-64-720.jpg)
I removed the mask from the cockpit windows. Unfortunatelly something went wrong, because it is misty inside. I think the glue made it. In the picture it can't be seen. I think there is no solution.

Mr D. Yes i recomend it, defintly. Most of the places, the fit is perfect. A small misalignments are there at the jet intakes and at the nosecone. The without glue technic is interesting. Sometimes give you a little headache, because after paint the elements don't want to go together. You have to remove the paint from the alignment pins. The panel lines are nice and crispy. I used glue everywhere to be sure. Summary:excelent kit.

This Revell/ Zvezda yak-3 I'm doing is alot of click together parts, l run a bit of extra thin in after too.
The reason l ask is they sell Academy's kits reasonable price on AliExpress n was tempted.
Good stuff thanks 👍
