Hello all, first thread on the aircraft side, and I wanted to show the Il-2 3m I recently finished. it is an accurate miniatures 1/48th scale kit, strait from the box, with the tamiya gaz and officers set. I did this for a school project after reading "Red Sky, Black Death" by Anna Yegorova. While not specifically her's, I wanted to give my English class comrades something to look at while I spoke.
anyway, here it is.












Thanks for any and all feed back!

I'm not familiar with that book, but I have to commend you on those 1/48 little figures! Nice work!
thanks for posting,
Sean.

An excellent model, great figures and intelligent diorama, and I bet your class mates were impressed too
