TS-11 Iskra bis DF

TFW after a few hours of fiddling with PE I realize I've only got to "Step #2". 

The cockpit detail in impressive, especially for this scale 

Test fitting.. Blown away by the detail - this is "out of the box", Arma-style. 

ready for painting 

There's just enough room in the nose for 5g of ballast. Turned out to be more than enough - this is definitely no longer a tail-sitter. 

Barely any seams needing attention 

Ready for the spray booth 

I decided to try masking using silicon therapy putty (Spencer Pollard's influence). Worked great, though starts to flow after a while in our weather. 

Lovely little jet trainer, and a lovely camo scheme.
