Title: Peska in 1/72nd
Post by: warhawk on April 30, 2011, 10:33:48 AM
I hear the UM kit is reasonably accurate, but terrible in detail and fit aspects.
On the other hand, Zlinek offering is exceptionally detailed, but from what I have heard, it is
undersized (closer to 1/75 scale)?

Can someone confirm this?

Hi,
I've heard the same thing on the Zlinek. I have a kit here, maybe I can take some measures.
I'll keep you informed

Hi!

Yes, Zlinek (ex VES?) is underscale.

I'd rank shape-wise Zvezda/Italeri over the UM. Not as detailed, but looks better for me. There have been also resin cowlings for it. Unfortunately, I don?t know their current availability.

Greetings,

AaCee

Thanks for the info. Guess, I'll wait for a while to build a decent Petlyakov...
