Popular Post Roman Schilhart Posted December 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 8, 2019 Dear fellow Britmodellers, here's the new 1/72 Zvezda Pe-2 in markings of 34th Guards Bomber Regiment, Leningrad, December 1944. I built from the box with addition of Mini Art defense guns. Painted with Gunze/Mr.Hobby acrylics. Photographs by Wolfgang Rabel. The new Zvezda kit is excellent in detail and fit, comparable to Tamiya offerings. Alternative parts enable you to build aircraft of different production batches. 5 attractive color options are included, 4 Russian, 1 Polish post-war. The kit decals perform exceptionally well. I really enjoyed building this model kit and can recommend it to all modelers with an interest in Russian WW2 aircraft. Thank you for your interest in this topic. Best greetings from Vienna! 79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72modeler Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Roman, That is a beautiful build of the prettiest VVS twin-engined airplane! Looks like the new Zvezda kit is the best in 1/72 scale. You got the colors right on the money! Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 A super looking build Roman. It is nice to have a favourable impression of this kit, I'm keen to get one, a Pe-2 has been on my list for ages. The price of these is not too bad either for what they are. Steve.

bombernut Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Hi Roman, What a gorgeous job you've done. Really like it a lot! Just one question you may be able to answer - have you done the UM kit, and if so, how do they compare? Cheers, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Matt I built the UM Pe-2 back in 2013: The Zvezda kit is better in all regards - fit, surfaces, detail and price!

ARTU73 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Amazing work! Bombs can be on the outside only or on the inside only. Cannot mix the two options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luka Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Occasionally I bump into some Italeri Pe-2 for sale online, but I always let it pass, wondering how the new Zvezda kit would be. Your build is the ultimate promotion for that kit. A beautiful build, and this model goes straight onto my wish list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opus999 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 That is beautiful work! I love the subtle weathering and paint tone variation -- it makes it very realistic looking. I've been wanting to do a Pe-2 for a while, it's nice to know there's a good kit available for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
