looking good...i too began my 172 Tu-134 last weekend....i had some Belavia airline markings come from Revaro in Moscow and began construction....reminds me of an old Frog style kit...i like how you have glued the 3 pieces of the fuselage together rather than the sections as per the instructions...i've struggled somewhat and it'll be some sanding etc to get it right or i'm gonna pull the sections apart and attempt your method!...what shade of grey do you think would be best for aeroflot?,,,so many different shades!...RAL7005 seems too dark RAL 7035 too light!...all the Best
