Very useful pic/diagram combination! I had already built and painted mine when I found out about the antenna ( 1, green arrow) in the picture. Too late now. However, it doesn't really matter, because there's so much dust on the model, you wouldn't see it anyway!
I'll include a pic of it when I get around to setting up my model shots.

While out looking for paints for my Mosquito and Beaufighter....
Which would be the best replacement for the Tamiya paints, since you can't get them all withing the UK, and not being one that wants to wait for weeks for the same paints to arrive, since they have to be shipped by surface mail....???? Oh, btw....Acrylics!

Sorry to say, the Yak-1b was delivered with the wrong canopy from Eduard, question is, do they still have them as replacement parts, or should I just go for a Squadron Signal vacuum one?
 
Nice buy Lucky. Regarding your paints, I very, very rarely use acrylics, can't seem to get used to them, but probably due to half a lifetime using enamels. However, Humbrol acrylics aren't bad, although small containers, and those from Games Workshop (Citadel Colour) have been O.K. for me. Like Tamiya, some advertised ranges of acrylics can be hard to come by in the U.K., but those available from Vallejo seem O.K. In my limited experience of acrylic paints, I haven't had problems mixing, blending or thinning within manufacturer's products, but overall, Tamiya seem better if only for the larger bottle size.
