The Flying Tank - IL2 STGB

[Marklo]

Arguably the most built aircraft at 37,000 certainly the most produced military aircraft, so there’s plenty of choice of colour schemes and models. I can’t believe I do t have one in my collection.

 

So any IL2 or derivative in any scale. Who’s in?

Might as well, as I have some in my stash and it's a great excuse to finally build one.

[Marklo]

@ModelingEdmontonian are you in?

[Nick McV]

I'd be up for this.

 

Thanks

Sure, the IL-2 deserves a GB

What kits are around in 1/72? I've not really thought about building one of these before

Not sure but there’s definitely at least an Airfix one. @Adam Poultney shall I add you to the list?

Indeed!   A double build comparison sounds like an interesting project.

Hi Mark, 

I'd like to have a go with this, please. I've never done a Stormovik - yes, I know! - so I reckon now would be a good opportunity!

Cheers, 

Mark

I would be up for this one, have the Accurate Miniatures Il-2m3 Stormovik in the stash.

[HarryHobbyin]
