Amodel 1/72 Shavrov Sh-2 Hydroplane in Finland


Recommended Posts

Good afternoon all,

Hope you like my take on the 1/72 AModel Shavrov Sh-2 Hydroplane in Finland.

AModel kits are good fun but you need a lot of patience...  Kit required all parts to be removed from the runners with a razor saw, much reshaping and sanding (using wet n dry paper), and model filler smoothed flat using wet n dry paper - Preferably wet to cut down the dust debris.

I used the new range of Lifecolor acrylic paints covering colors used by Finland - Brush painted as always.

The big surprise for me was the decals they worked really well and even submitted my rough handling and application.

I thoroughly enjoyed making this model kit and this won't be my last AModel kit for sure !

Comments and advice welcome.
