Meatbox8 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 These Easy-Kits really do look good although, of course, yours is beautifully rendered as well. I've yet to try one although it has been my intention for some time to get a few partly to practice airbrushing i.e. it wouldn't be the end of the World if I cocked one up at under seven quid a pop. Anyway, super looking Lavotchkin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Great looking kit Steve. Beautifully finished. Congrats. I started the D 520 yesterday and I actually find it really impressive. I screwed up though, as I decided to open the cockpit fully and scratch build the inside. I knew I should not have stopped my medication! Hopefully that won't stuff up the easy kit side of it!!! Yours does look a stunner, so I am quite optimistic. Cheers JR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will cancel my appointment with the shrink first thing in the morning! Seriously though, the more I looked at the cockpit, the less I could live with it. I am still in two minds about the seat, and I seriously think that a bit of beautifying will suffice. The rest of the kit is actually rather good. I am glad I tried one.
