I've posted a few photos (work in progress) on my blog of the Zvezda IL-2 in case it's useful to anyone. link Tanner

Good review. Actually I like that clean look. Nice effect from your decals. I agree the ones in the box are not great – I tidied mine up with overpainting. I tried using the stand in the kit, but as I half suspected, I did not last out the first game and has been replaced by a sturdier rod. So stand and props too weak and flimsy, decals not top notch. But still a good buy.

Thanks they look pretty good for the price. Nice paint job.

Nice work. It's an ungainly looking aircraft, but it got (gets) the job done.
