  8. Troika build done in 5 days, work in progress, here: Thx for looking.
  9. Nice build so far, MOA. You certainly have pre 2010. release of Troika kit, which is cast from US Smooth-ON SmoothCast SC 310 resin , which is white and have tendency to produce CO2 while curing, which cause tinny bubbles under surface. We switched to SIKA Biresin in 2010 (tan coloured resin) and this problem with tinny bubbles is almost solved. Re Canopy frames, they are probably dried and unusable after 8-9 year at shelf. Just drop me your address via PM and i will airmail fresh set directly to you, FoC. Re @JOHN AERO comments, which are "pretty unpleasant" at any topic related to AEROPOXY products, over the Britmodeller that my kits are " just models with very bad manners " , maybee , but i'd rather stay polite in communication and not go that bad manner way like Mr. Adams. We started our resin kit production in 1993. Kits were made from epoxy resin, from German "Multiplex" RC modelling company, under MultiPoxy label. So, we chose AeroPoxy to be ours brand name , and after 25 years of small business running, we do not intend to change our name just due the some not like the "POXY" suffix and associates them with a completely different term. The bundle of products in the modeling world has the same term in its name, and it does not bother anyone except mr Adams. To conclude with an inspiring 1950's Youtube clip Happy Modelling,
  10. Zlin Z-37 ÄŒmelak - KP 1/72 , quick build with some scratch build spraying devices, spraybars and microners/nozzles. 20 ÄŒmelaks were imported in 1967-72 to Yugoslavia, 17 of them was bought for JAT- Yugoslav airlines cropdusting service use and three went to Skopje, now Northern Macedonia, Agrohemizacija service. Last flying ÄŒmelaks are withdrawns from use in early 1980s , one was preserved inBelgrade aviation museum collection. KP kit, despite bad reputation, if treated as basic short run , with some tweeks here nad there , is buildable , and nice looking when finished. Decals printed by myself, Corel draw - laser printer and decal film. Thanx for looking
  11. Trumpeter IL-28 converted to fast mail plane IL-20 / IL-28P ( as "Почтовии"- Mail), used by Aeroflot and SSSR mail service 1954-1964 , from Moscov-Vnukovo , via Sverdlovsk to Novosibirsk, mainly for fast transfer of Daily newspaper press matrices , Pravda and Izvestiya , to print it in eastern part of SSSR without much delay. Complete armament instalation was removed. Crews were mainly AEROFLOT TU-104 pilots. Later same planes were used as meteorological and atmosphere probing platform. Whole fleet of some 20 IL-20s removed from use in mid 1960s and scrapped. Trumpeter kit, basic, with some shape issues, but usable, for such low expectations project. Clear canopy and nose cone parts are sanded and used as a master for vacuformed ones. Decals drawn in Corel, laser printed on clear decal paper, while large wing registrations are sprayed using airbrushing mask. Thanx for looking
