Here's the latest from my bench.

Gotta love Alclad paints, they give such a good finish from the smallest amount of paint & no thinning either :banana:

Also first time using Akan paints can't fault them so far.

Thanks for looking

Scott.

I love AKAN Paints just a shame they are a rare option in the EU

Ok dio time, base will be soviet style concrete, the only problem now is that I have broke the front part of the canopy & with the missing seat I'm thinking of a bird strike type of scenario, as I can't find a replacement canopy & I know that trumpeter are rubbish with replacement parts & don't really want to spend anymore by buying resin seats.

Thanks for the comments pleased with the way it turned out in the end.

The remove before flight tags were produced in Photoshop with the help of google translate, as my Russian isn't as good as it used to be lol.
