This will be part of a 3 scales Aircraft Building Tale  A 1:32 Special Hobby Tempest, 1950's Marking. A 1:48 KP Su-7 BM, A 1:72 Trumpeter Mig-29, 
This thread will be for Sukhoi.
Plastic has some good detail. Glossy coloured paper instruction sheet.
I like the nice touch on where to apply glue 
Markings for Polish, Soviet and Czech. Their other Su-7 BM kit only has Czech markings.
    
So here we go, I started with the engine and the front wheel bay, also the base for the cockpit.

Looking forward to this one. I think a bare metal finish would be quite striking.
Regards,

Wow and the first PE parts are going down . Those fuel tanks don't have any seams  , just the sink marks to clean up  |

Maybe thin John, but you have the better of it . Those sink marks should pose no prob, they're even on the upper side so they're almost hidden already |
