Italeri, Revell (likely a rebox of someone else's product), Zvezda and Hobby Boss all made the Hokum in 1/72 scale (let's not consider ESCI/ERTL early release) and I know that Zvezda boxed at least two different versions. So which one is best? Thanks all.

Hi I will try to clear some of these models during GB(anything more than zero will do). Models are in various stages, some being almost there, some not so close. I will be starting with Buffalo. The story behind the kit is following, few years back when my parents in love were visiting us, my father in love asked if he could give it a go with one of the kits, I said sure you can try with this one, and handed over Airfix box. He open the box, looked into instructions, I gave him few tips, show him where tools, glue, and paints are, wish him luck and went to work. When I was back home kit was already built... Few parts did not fit and he could not figure out how to install so he left them off. Luckily these were canopy and engine parts. Nothing was painted (I don't blame him for not figuring out airfix color coding). When they went back home slow process of reconstruction has begun. I was working on this kit in between builds, so whenever I had color which was needed in airbrush, something was done, cockpit is not finished yet... I have started decal application, and then one of the decals(as it usually happens) refused to cooperate, so I have decided to paint the decal(s). Here are photos of where I stand with the kit. Decal no20 was lost, therefore wings and fuselage have been masked to receive new coat of paint. White coat Followed by blue Unmasked Underside Cheers! Rade

As I am waiting for some oil paint to dry on my Aerosan I have started on my next project. I bought this a couple of years ago at the Telford kit swap: It was originally released in 1988 by ESCI / Italeri, this is the AMT re-boxing which came out a year later. The Ka 52 is the two seat version of the Ka 50. There are three brown sprues which feature some nicely engraved panel lines: There is a very basic decal sheet and OKish clear parts which look like they would benefit from a polish up: The instructions offer only one scheme I have also ordered this PE set and this lovely decal sheet which provides all the missing stencils and plenty of scheme options. Bye for now, Nigel
