IL-2 Sturmovik rescue - part 2

 

Here is the finished Sturmovik in all its lumpy ghastliness.  It’s definitely a 6-footer, from which distance it looks OK. In poor light. Anyway, it’s an almost-free Il-2 which can’t really be a bad thing.  Can it?

It looks very smart in its winter colour scheme.

That looks good to me. I do like a nice winter scheme.

Cheers,

Nice repaint! The Germans are reputed to have called them "Zementers" (concreters) or "Betonvogel" (concrete birds, so 2lumpy ghastliness2 is underselling it IMHO, Tim. :-)

Regards, Chris

It felt a bit silly painting it while temperatures were in the mid-20s….

Just goes to show how (unexpectedly) accurate my models are!
