Glad to see your paintwork looks very much like mine….I did wonder if the colours suggested were incorrect, but yours confirmed they are correct. And what a great subject and build!

Thank you, Andy! I have used this well researched article and it was a great help in understanding all things Il-2, build and painting wise - massimotessitori.alt..l-2m3/il2m3-camo.htm

@Sebastijan- this is fantastic! Tell me though, others have reported the wing sweep back is incorrect in the Tamiya model as stated in the article due to the weight distribution?

@andy to be honest, I haven't head of this issue yet and looking at the photos of the real thing, at least optically (I won't go measuring), the wing shape looks pretty close. However one thing that is really oversized and I would replace it, if I knew it beforehand, are the underwing rockets - they are more than twice the size of the real ones. I think Brengun makes resin ones together with appropriate pylons.

Good to know referencing your rockets….I may switch to those smaller bombs
