Goldfish Whisper Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Hi all - here's my latest project - Tamiya's Ilyushin Il-2 Sturmovik in 1:72 scale. Build out of box in in the Soviet 1945 scheme - only aftermarket was some Eduard canopy masks, which made a huge difference to the finished product. Brush painted in mix of Vallejo and Revell acrylics. Overall a beautiful kit with lots of nice touches that make the modeller's life easier. Minimal filler required. Took me about 2 months, which is very quick for me - and that included about 2 weeks of waiting for canopy masks to be delivered, and a repaint of the grey which was initially too light. Only thing to note would be that the instructions require you to add the landing gear very early in the build - but I don't think there's any way round it. Enjoy! 40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpoud117 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Nice tank killer you got here! If you had not mentioned the brush painting, I'd have not realized the paint wasn't sprayed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
