This was for sure - not easy build. Result is simply - beautiful. Those experimental Russian planes are just amazing. I can not decide whether they are beautiful or ugly, or both at the same time. Regards Djordje

Great models and very nice presentation. Weathering on the F-18A is PERFECT!!!! regards

Great looking FW. Admiring your skill, very nice brush painting. Regards

Disappointing...not at all. Artistic approach here always welcomed Regards

Great model. Very interesting winter cammo on the storch. Regarding mistakes.....in this macro mode you can not hide anything.....but even in that mode your model looks beautiful, many details and very nice finish. Looking forward to see finished diorama Thanks for sharing. Regards Djordje

Thank you all for nice words. Regarding those checkers, they could be done much better, as i said my impatience led to mistakes, which are very visible....but i can live with them I sow work from my friends from other forums, they managed to apply Academy decals, not without problems....but it is feasible. Regards Djordje

HI to all After short pause, finished one more Academy Jug. P-47 from the 84th FS, 78th FG located in England, Autumn of 1944. Colors Tamiya, used british colors - dark green and sky, what was main reason why i started this plane, looking very interesting side by side with US olive drab thunderbolts. Regarding model which is already very well known, out of box built with small addition of belts maid from aluminum foil, replaced gun-sight. shortened landing gears, replaced pitot tube.....Cowling is hand painted (which is visible as i was not able to remove texture from masking tape, as decals just broke, i was not able to follow the curve). Weathering - artist oil paints and chipping was hold on minimal, as those planes was quite new and fresh repainted in England upon arrival. So comment and critics as always welcomed. I hope you like this beast, i enjoyed building it. Best regards

Very nice George. Usually presented as half ruined plane, i like to see different approach. Nice sharp and clean. Very good paint work. Regards

SIMPLY.....AMAZING. So realistic, like it very much Regards

And now something completely different..... Mustang is beautiful plane, and in those colors looks even better. Great built and paint work. Regards Djordje

Beautiful model. I like those blue color scheme. Regards

Real eye catcher. Beautiful, clean and sharp work. Weathering is.....just how it need to be. Regards Djordje

Simply GREAT

You are the real artist. One of best diorama i sow on any forum. Simply i feel power, and pride looking at this. Small masterpiece. Best regards

Extraordinary Looking different in black color. Very nice Regards

Very rare to see, and beautifully executed. Great model. Regards

Very impressive build, and great looking beast. Like it very much Regards

I know this model very well (one of models standing together with my Hoby Boss Yak 3 ) Unfortunately pictures are not so good, but i know how this model looks in real life, much better than here. So thank you for sharing, This hasegawa with small corrections (filling of panel lines on wing surfaces, and some others) looks really good. Regards Djordje

Very nice JUG. Like the weathering. Old Hasegawa still looks very very competitive to newer molds. Regards

Simply BEAUTIFUL

Unbelievable realistic model. Great build, and must admit that Mitchell looks very nice with British roundels. Regards Djordje

Very nice build, Weathering is......just right, Looking tired of war Regards

Very nice build. I have both Hasegawa and Italeri, but i prefer Hasegawa

Very nice Spitfire, like this moderate weathering. Only what looks odd is left cannon, pointed too low? Regards

Hi to all What to do when you get as a gift cheep, simple, not exactly accurate kit...of course built it. So that happened with this Yak 3 from Hobby Boss. Kit is accurate in side view outline, fuselage behind the cockpit is much too narrow, cannon bulges on the upper cowling are very wrongly shaped, radiator housing is too flat in profile view, spinner blades too narrow and too pointed, and so on.... So i started from cockpit, putting something in as it is totally empty, Colors used were Hataka for VVS planes, mat Vallejo varnish, some weathering with artistic oli paints...and that was all. Decals are from Zvezda YAK3. Model was build as comparison to other two Yaks, Hasegawa and Zvezda kits, so i made one picture together with them. So, thanks for looking all critiques welcomed. Regards Two pictures on daily light: Zvezda Yak3, Hobby Boss and at the end Hasegawa:
