Dmitri KouterguineThank you mates!
The kit is realy good what you see is what you get in a box. The casting is perfect, I didn't notice any bubles or flaws. Everything fits easy and without problems. What I liked is the connection of parts to casting pours, it's very thin and easy to cut with sharp modeling knife. There is also good manual unlike most resin models. There are slight gaps on the sphere but mounting belts cover them. There are some realy small steps from 3d printing but I decided not to bother about them and after covering with the primer they were gone. As for the price I bought 1/48 resin vostok last year and it was less detailed and even more expensive. In my opinion this kit is the best offer of vostok today. I had realy good time while assemblying it.
Oh yeah forgot to say there was information on their VK page that this autumn there will be relesed interrior set for this model.
