ajcm Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 A new model on the bench. This is a Zvezda model. The Petlyakov PE-2 on 1/48. From what I read in the reviews (Brett Green) it is a very complete model, with good fittings and quite detailed. A model with a little more than 400 pieces.The model. Sprues. Transparencies. Decals.

Martian Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I have often thought about getting this kit but couldn't find an interesting colour scheme for it. Still, I am interested to see how this builds up. Martian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amblypygid Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Likewise; one lurking in my stash courtesy of that Brett Green review (plus others equally commending of it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajcm Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 A fit test and for now everything seems perfect. As I still do not have the PE and the mask (Eduard) I decided to start with the engine. Some very small pieces require some care. Always doing a fitting test as I'm gluing parts. And that's enough for now. Regards ajcmac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
