Think I have solved your problem Roman on choice. The finish on all the pictures looks good.

What about buying another 3 for the full set.

Looks like a good crisp moulding. The excess plastic which you did not know the word for is called flash. Not much sign of that in the photos though.

I was looking at one of these in 1/48, but the size scared me away.

I look forwards to seeing the build and finding out which of the schemes you go for.

Heheheh, I have thoots about that too

Must check for CROATIAN AF decals for that plane, in independent war those plane give a big effort and play a huge rule in the war...

During the night they run bomber mission over Vukovar town and also Medic Aid missions.

People in lack of weapons flew in this coffins under heavy AA fire, I think just 1 or 2 was lost.

They also drop "garage build bombs"... recepie: One huge water heater or gas bottle of 50 litle or bigger / or some metal tubing 19-21" / or similar thing... put inside nails, nuts, screws, from every size, also some steel scrap little and big one... etc... and at the end put some C4 or similar with fuse... and weld cover over it... and thats it

Dop on target counting 5.4.3.2.1. Droooop with taunge in the middle of mouth... for better aiming

You cannot belive it, it was very successful method of air strike...





I know in era of moder and electronic warfare this story is pritty funny, but it was very scary and these attacks kick out from the platoon many, many serbian soldiers.

When you dont have anything, An-2 is also very, very quality plane... like you have F-117

heheheh

Cheers

Roman

P.S.

It's documentary on Croatian language, but if someone want to watch... can see everything
