Happy New Year everyone. It is a good year for me so far. This is one of the 13 models that I finished yesterday. It is a 1/72 scale Russian Troop Carrying Glider from WWII. It is a short run kit from Eastern Europe and was a bit tough to get together and paint. This bird fought me all the way to the finish line:    There it is, a model of something I never knew ever existed. I'll have to do more research on this to see how it was used. Meanwhile, enjoy! Afterward, feel free to check out my latest vehicles to see the rest of what I finished. Thanks for looking in, comments are welcome. |

Thanks for the awesome compliments guys! It definitely is a difficult model to work on; thanks for the compliments and support for that. Still, it was quite easy given there is no engine.... |

Thanks guys! I appreciate the compliments very much for this very short run kit.
Boots it is quite unusual; I had never known thew Russians had these.
Steve, thanks. It did fight back that hard, but I went on full assault mode on this and got it finished.
