1/72 Zvesda iL-4

--------------------

 

This is my iL-4. Built OOB. Here in the Philippines Zvesda kits are rare, well at least to me they are. I like to model unusual but cool looking planes. The kit's quality is terrible and also it's decals are not good. The saleslady was even surprised that I wanted this model. For me, it gets old just looking at the popular models over and over again. So I wanted something different, and here it is.

I used Tamiya enamels and some cheap hardware enamels, to my regret.

The cowlings were not the right shape so I had to reshape them.

Overall, a nasty looking plane...........
