A fun little kit with low part count.
Comparison to another WW2 Russian bird I did back in 2018, the Sukhoi Su-6 AM-42

That looks great. Even better with its Commrad-ski. Well done and that was quick.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

I know the kit you're talking about. I do want that in my stash. The Tamiya IL-2 is high on my want list.

Quick build. Such a fan of the plane - the most produced aircraft of ww2. Well done.
Thanks,
John

Thank you for the kind words. I agree, it's one of favorite WW2 Russian aircraft because it looks badass.

Nice quick work on this Tom! Looks like you had fun here. And very nice work on the camo scheme.

Yeah, it was a fun build. I wanted to jump on something I didn’t want to stress on the details.
