Academy Il-2 (early) 1/48
Soviet Ski Team, 1940.
Single seat Il-2, straight wing. Easy meat for German fighters, led to the development of the Il-2m3.
A really nice kit, fairly innovative engineering but a straightforward build. Highly recommended.
Great job
Nice work on the weathering/detail...I like it.
That looks really cool, I especially love the weathering. Great work!
Very nice indeed!
As it's not a very well known plane (for me at least), can you post more photos, please? Maybe the underside too 🙂
Nicely done, glad to see you're posting again. Long time no see. Good job on this one, I like it.
That's a fine looking IL-2, Bryan. Outstanding weathering, and the snow scheme including the skis is excellent!
Bryan, Looks really nice. A very attractive and realistic looking model. I like that you didn't overdue the weathering. Well done !
A great looking model - nice paint and finishing work, and it's great to see a skis version - not commonly seen.
Great looking model, superb finish and weathering.
BTW - the Academy kit is the Accurate Miniatures original, reboxed.
You did a beautiful job of showing the bird as ugly as it was, and I'm completely serious.
