    Wow, looking darn nice Spiros! @fiveten
    Reading this thread gives me itch to build my own Il-2 sooner than I planned.

    Spiros the will is present but the opportunity not so. Perhaps in a few weeks I’ll jump aboard 😉

    G'day Spiros (@fiveten) and John (@johnb),

    What a great combo build.

    I have both the 1/48 Tamiya and single seat Zvezda kits, but I have too much on my plate at the moment.

    I certainly can't match your build tempo, Spiros - you are 90% done before I have a chance to think about starting!

    Like you, John, I like to build the cockpit first and I like the detail you have achieved.

    I'm looking forward to see the end products, including others here who are planning to join the build.

    @michaelt, thanks a lot, Michael. I agree with Spiros @fiveten, it would be great if you join. Maybe you can find another plate to put some work on 😉

    Really great work on the cockpit, Spiros @fiveten
    Amazing how you got that done while the fuselage was already closed.

    Cockpit looks great, Spiros (@fiveten). Like the others, I am amazed that it is possible to build and paint the cockpit after the fuselage is closed.
