That one is in my sights, as long as it does not cost the earth

I'd love to have that also, but I suspect it will be out of my rather limited price range. Still, nice to see an La-7 in 1/32nd scale.
Regards,
Jason

Hi, I wrote them regarding Kozhedub's plane. They will not include board number "27" decal with blue outline as alternative, only red outline. However, they offered to send me the Corel file to print just blue outline on clear decal myself and apply it to painted white "27". Regards, 66misos

Hi Misos, but if the blue is trasparent as usual for inkjet printers, it gives a too dark shade when overposed to the original red one. I wonder if any producer is making decals for Lavochkins with blue outline. Regards Massimo

Hi Massimo, It could work if you spray/paint solid white digits without outline on the kit and after that you apply transparent decal with blue outline. Or to print blue outline on the white decal and then very carefully cut digits 27. Regards, 66misos

Good free T-shirt over it cool! But the model is not like the La-7. Model is similar to La-5 M-71, I-185, and even the Japanese Raiden, but not at the La-7.

Hi Walker, I think/hope it is matter of "fish eye" effect, not wrong proportions. Btw, do you have some info whether Zvezda will make La-7 in 1/48? Thank you. 66misos

Hi 66misos! Unfortunately this is not the effect of "fish-eye". HPH on the site, there are other photos of the model and it can be seen that the model contains many errors geometry. About plans for "Zvezda" on the La-7 I do not know anything.

Yes I also would like to know what the issues are with this kit as I am on the verge of ordering one.
Cheers

The main mistake is that this model is made for the wrong drawings. Rate the fuselage cross-section and excessive thickness of the cockpit. Canopy greatly oversized. Aft fuselage in the upper part is puzzling. Wings ... Pairing wing and fuselage.

That looks rather nice, whatever inaccuracies it may have. I can't really afford it anyway.

Despite any inaccuracies this will probably be the only chance of getting a kit in 1/32 scale so I couldn't resist it any longer, saw one built up at SMW (Telford) today and it looked great: Cheers Dennis
