This is how it should look like.

I assembled the cockpit. In same old FROG models, there are fewer details and decals than this one. 🙂 It is joke - i love old FROG kits!

A grey primer has been applied. The model is quite large compared to the ones I build earlier.

Painted the bottom in AMT-7

I painted it in other basic colors (AMT-11, 12). The antenna on the nose, predictably, broke off. 🙂

I was "having fun" painting the engines. They look better in the photo than they actually are.

I applied the main decals. I'm not sure about the technical labels, a couple of small decals fell apart in the water.

I want to use the decals from the La-7 kit by ARK (NOVO\FROG) and I will paint the model in the standard colors of Soviet late World War II camouflage (AMT-11/12/7).

Can we still get Zvada kits here in the US. All my sources say it's out of stock.

Chris, I can't comment on the USA. There are no issues with Zvezda products in Russia, except for discontinued kits.

Album info
What would Su-57 painted in colors of Kozhedub's La-7 look like.
Ivan Nikitovich Kozhedub or Ivan Mykytovych Kozhedub (8 June 1920 – 8 August 1991) was a Soviet World War II fighter ace. Universally credited with over 60 solo victories, he is considered to be the highest scoring Soviet and Allied fighter pilot of World War II. He is one of the few pilots to have shot down a Messerschmitt Me 262 jet, and the first Soviet pilot to have done so.
