guaguachong Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 Yak 1 is a very important fighter in WWII and she is beautiful. AM's kit is great in detail but has some difficulty for assembling. i did all these modifies: 1. drill out all exhaustions. 2. add gun barrel 3. add seatbelts. spend long time for weathering until i felt ok. according to the environment in eastern front, the plane looks kina dirty. :) these are pictures, enjoy.
ghodges Posted January 19, 2011 Report Posted January 19, 2011 Looks great Ying! I think you nailed the weathering on the bottom. Russian stuff was heavily used on grass fields, and your Yak looks the part! Congrats! GIL

ClareWentzel Posted January 19, 2011 Report Posted January 19, 2011 Greeat job Ying. I love the various aces schemes with the Russian aircraft. How did you do the star on the spinner? Was it a decal or hand painted? It looks perfect. Clare

Clare decal, i thought it is pretty cool for that mark :) if you have time, you may use tamiya tape to cover and paint it. it would be better than decal i think. but decal is already good. coming from AM's original decal.
