1/72 Kopro lavochkin La 5 fn

[destrozas]

thanks
I have placed the decals for this model that I want to do only exist as a vector for 1 / 48 so working as photo photoshop best friend be a model for their decals and print the climb we get (1), we let dry 48 hours, superdecal said that 12 hours are longer but better left as it occurred to me that I have some decals removed within 48 hours after that time I never had problems.
Klear behind this work of Gibraltar got a friend I give the plane and let it dry 48 hours over the issue of supporting the micro-well micro sun set, I put this step and give the decals again Klear.
this is how it looks
(1)

I await your criticism .....

 

[Wurger]

Not too bad at all.

 

[Airframes]

I agree.

 

[Wurger]

Destrozas might I ask you a question? Are you sure the fighter machine was of La-5FN or La-5 type? Just of curiousity.

 

[Wayne Little]

Not bad at all !!

 

[destrozas]

wurger my name is sergio,
the plane was the pilot 5FN but also the 5 f, before being shot down and disappeared over the Baltic Sea according to the information I have.
Thanks to the others.

 

[Wurger]

Thank you Sergio. Please call me Wojtek then.

I have asked about the La-5 variant because I found the profile and picture in Osprey book titled LaGG Lavochkin Aces of World War 2. According to the caption of the B&W image it's the La-5 flown by the pilot. If it's true... it was La-5 judging by the rear small window.
Also, you lost the air intake at the top of the engine cowling , I'm afraid. The longer one was for La-5FN or the shorter one for La-5 and La-5F.

Please have a look at the site as well.

If you're absolutely right about this model Wojtek is the only pictures of the pilot next to the plane, scaneare those of the reference book I have and I'll put this one on the plane, this model I have to do well because I have almost Lavochkin from almost all before the start of WWII.
I'm running the aircraft we already finished with just two touches is in March-April 1944, at which places you would put the title of the book but is in Russian and completely unaware of the language.
I bring you the latest photos of the device as it is finished

 

[Wurger]

I understand. So OK. The model looks very good though. However the antenna mast seems to be too thin. What did you use for the antenna wires?

 

[destrozas]

sorry wurger, this is elastin (nylon), as it was not very well placed in the window so I decided to do a small scene - diorama of a day after the storm, I call this harsh winter, I put pictures

I still have many tasks to complete but as a Spanish proverb says "Dress me slowly that I have a hurry," I put some detail

 

[Wurger]

The winter there was really severe. Looking very good though.

 

[Gnomey]

Coming along great!

 

[Airframes]

Nice !

 

[destrozas]

But progress is slow but steady pace:

I added a tent for the night

and do something more than trees in the taiga

The latter is the skeleton still remains to paint the bark of the tree and place it on the green (leaves) and snow

 

[Wurger]

Looking very nice. But I don't think these green leaves should be added to the tree skeleton. All trees with leaves here loose them in Autumn. Sometimes some of them can stay on trees but these are of brown tonalities then.

 

[destrozas]

Wojtek of course you're absolutely right about the forage deir even whiter and more snow but I hope to finish when the trees have all assembled to do everything at once they were a test to see how they look, later to paint the end off and on snow paint him stay so white because the moss has a hard time catching the white.

 

[DBII]

Good Job

[Gnomey]

Coming along nicely!

 

[Tony Hill]

Nice job!!

I see. Keep working then.
