Petlyakov Pe-8 - Zvezda 1:72

[hal bregg]

Hello everyone!

Soviet heavy bomber Pe-8 4AM-35A.
This machine (serial nr. 42066) had a quite rich history. Borrowed from bomber regiment in 1942 made a flight from Moscow to Washington (!),
carrying a diplomat mission.
After return continuing bombing missions (including Berlin raid). Lost in emergency landing in 1943.

Zvezda kit is well detailed and worth reccomending.
Painted by airbrush freehand, markings painted by self-made masks.
