George72 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) Hello! Here's my recent project, this very nice Tamiya kit. Nothing else to say regarding its quality and easy to build, it's been around for quite some time now. I've just added Quinta 3d decals and resin wheels. Used Aqueous Gunze paints, my favorites, over Mr Surfacer 1500 black primer. Also, my very first attempt in the riveting process, which is a lot of work; but the result is very satisfying. Hope you'll enjoy. Cheers! George Edited November 29, 2022 by George72 51 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny akes Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Excellent work George, the weathering is superb and exactly where it needs to be. The kit is a joy to build but the skill is what you do with it afterwards. Regards JA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Spencer Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Very nice weathering, but you have a fingerprint in the left side exhaust stain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right. Thankfully , I was able to sand it out and it's ok now. But I've deleted the detailed picture and will replace it soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeusa Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 I am flabbergasted over how well and detailed the painting and weathering is on this model. You have got to have some high amount of patience to carefully place all the aspects of the weathering you have done on this model and the different techniques that were used. Props to you. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learstang Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Absolutely beautiful job on that Il-2! Only one small thing - the tag should be 'Red Air Force', not 'Russian Air Force'. Best Regards, Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
