Hello guys ! Watch at picture n°10 : this intrados pics shows the correct disposition of ejection chutes. Academy is the only manufacturer who got this detail allright at this scale.
Good paint !

Decals went down nicely with micro set, although they took their time releasing from the backing paper, cold water was not enough. But as expected from cartograf they are thin no carrier film and perfectly opaque, if any thing a little too bright as compared with my paint scheme will try an dull them down a bit later.
Thanks for watching

Thanks #Cuajete but I'm afraid you will see a new horror show in the next few photos, it's a lesson not to model while you have the brain fuzz of Covid 😱

Pity about the decals, the rest is looking great. I'm sure you thought of this, you could paint the tail stripes and weather them?

I agree with Alberto. I think you should be able to paint the stripes with a masking tape!
PS sorry to hear that you are suffering from COVID

Cheers #Alberto & #Moreno and as for Covid I'm well just fuzzy brain not help by not to going out and so I don't spread it 🙄
Recovery of markings is in progress they now look a little bit "field" applied but once all the other stuff is done and flat coat etc it'll be ok. Not rushing as once bitten etc 😁
Stay tuned for the heavy handed adventures of the Tank killer - killer 🤣

This looks great! Such an unusual livery for the IL-2. I'd like to learn more about this paint scheme, so can you point me in the right direction? It looks kind of Italian, but not?

Hi #David only have what's in the instructions and they say it's "Magyar Királyi Honvéd Légierő (Royal Hungarian National Defense Air Force 1942-1945)" like you said I did it for the interesting tail markings, although as I said earlier I should have do straight masking from the start as I messed the decals 🙄
Sorry #Nikita not being a native Russian speaker I can only go by what's on the kit box and the English spelling no insult meant.

I hadn't noticed those things... Academy plays with words? 🤔

#Sy Bar this word came from the german language - sturm and means ground-attack aircraft. The letter O is an ancient mistake. I have no complaints, I'm just surprised that she still walks on the Internet
