Here is my completed entry for Karl and Andrew's Soviet Wingy thing GB. Thanks to both Karl and Andrew for organising it.

This is my first time building an Arma Hobby product and the aircraft was a good model to make. I had numerous issues along the way but these were all down to my limited experience. It went together very well and the only criticism of the product were the cockpit masks which didn't fit or stick. I made my own in the end.

The model was 100% brush painting with Vallejo paints, aside from a rattle can of Army painter primer.

This was my first experience of PE which was quite easy but in some ways pointless as all the PE detail is covered up. I also applied an antenna wire (well 2 actually) for the first time and that wasn't too bad either but tweezers and a lot of magnification were required.

Great result and a few firsts for you into the bargain. You should be a happy bunny with that.
