discussion Tamiya 1/48 IL-2

[Guest]

Hi all. Been away for a little while but I saw this at the shops the other day and had to get it. Being Tamiya i'm sure it will be good and hopefully get me back into the swing of things. As you can see it is Tamiya's IL-2 and I will be doing the scheme that is on the box art.

A very nice job on the cockpit Kresten. Are the seatbelts decals ?

 

[Guest]

Thanks guys. Yes the seatbelt is a decal which is supplied with the kit. Didn't feel up to making my own or going aftermarket. Not sure how much will be seen anyway.

 

[Guest]

Well I have managed to get a bit more done on this. The intake is really well done on this kit. Excellent fit all round which is to be expected. It's a bit larger than I thought it would be. Time to get more shelves. Hahaha.
