here is my finished "rata" Mongolia, 1939.
Built OOB except for aluminum tubing for the wing machine guns. Scratch build pitot tube.
Overall, this was a very enjoyable build. Only issue was the landing gear is extremely fiddly. Took forever to get the gear doors aligned correctly.
I tried pre-shading for the first time. Please let me know what you all think.
Thanks for looking!
