Looks good. I have always liked the look of the hind A. I wish someone would come out with a conversion kit for Trumpeter's 1/35 D to backdate it to an A.

Given how wonky the basic shape of Trumpeter's kit is, there would be significant compromises in investing in making a substantial conversion set for it. Zvezda is currently the only manufacturer to depict correctly the twist in the fuselage which means that the vertical axis of cockpit and rear section are not in the same plane. The Zvezda E is very nice so I'd expect similar for a D from there.
