    Strangely, no new 1/72nd scale aircraft. The most neglected Soviet WW2 era types in this scale are La-7 and Il-4. La-7 from Eduard is probably their worst kit in this scale, while for Il-4 it is hard to tell which one is worse, the old Zvezda or VEB.

    If you try building this kit, I guess you will realize it is not so easy. Of course everyone knows how to fill the seam. However, the problem here is that seam goes over flaps and some areas with delicate details, making it almost impossible for a neat work. Kit designer is most likely not a model builder.

    Out of the all possibilities mentioned in this thread, this is the best possible outcome!

    Most PWS-10 which remained operational in the pilot school had their spinners removed, so the kit would need to have pure propeller and also quite distinctive backplate which closed the front part of the fuselage behind the prop.

    Great release, I am only sorry Lukgraph didn't provide the parts and markings for WW2 period service.

    So good to see Choroszy releasing new kits again!

    From the photo it seems that KP fuselage is slightly shorter than Pavla, but this might be illusion. Could you please compare them and check if this is true? Thanks.

    Very nice walkaround, thank you for this!

    It certainly has Supermodel genes in itself. Just look at the panel between fixed and movable part of tailplanes - exactly like in Supermodel kit, nothing like 21st century tooling.

    Can you fix this so the photos can be seen on PC as well?
  11. MarkoZG
    It was. Old Airfix tool with markings for HoAZ is very accurate, although with obsolete detail level.

    To be honest, my expectations from this kit were much higher than what can be seen in these photos. The old Airfix kit still holds two major advantages over this one: first in having clear parts for side windows and windshield for which I think always look a lot better and more realistic than decals and second more true-to-scale surface, since the panel lines seen here are grossly overdone for 1/144. It would be even better not to have any than to have it like here. Smaller parts are the only step forward from this kit.

    I am curious to see how do Hasegawa and Fujimi kits fit to this shape comparison.

    So now it only remains to see if someone recently bought a late 9-12 to inform us if they upgraded the kit or left it as it was. If yes, then it would be a true lottery where to order it from in order to receive correct configuration, as it would depend on the kits in stock.
