This
is a kit I completed about 4 years ago. I’ve always been a fan of Russian bloc
aircraft due to all the hype growing up during the cold war. It seemed like once
the wall came down, there was a slew of Soviet aircraft models in 1/48 that got
released. I think I have them all! Anyway, this is not your shake and bake kit
but with a little extra effort, did not cause too much grief in getting put
together.

I
added the excellent Cutting Edge cockpit set and burner can. Otherwise, from an
aftermarket detail standpoint, that was it. The markings were from the excellent
(for exotic aircraft marking fans) Linden Hill sheet. Paints are my favourite
Gunze Sangyo with an oil wash and brushed on silver paint for weathering.
