Mickc’s 1/48 Academy Yak-1

I missed this Mick - sorry. What an unusual subject. The kit allows for skids or wheels?? Pilot looks great. You've made fast progress so no real issues. I look forward to the winter camo.
 
Wow, flying along Mick. Looking good in the primer. Like the love child of a Hurricane and P40!

Looking forward to seeing some colour...

Not forgotten this one but work got in the way. Another clear coat applied ready for a bit of weathering and started on a base. As I was attaching the last few pieces, the separate exhausts, one of the smallest pinged off into space shouting it’s goodbyes as it disappeared. I managed to make one from a small rocket fin and plastic strip and now painted looks good enough.

That's coming on beautifully Mick! Looking forward to seeing you work your magic on the base!
