Title: La-7 windscreen Post by: warhawk on July 27, 2007, 06:04:55 PM Is it just me or the windscreen of Eduard's 1/72 La-7 is really too wide?
Title: Re: La-7 windscreen Post by: Massimo Tessitori on July 27, 2007, 10:26:42 PM I've heard this too. However I've 2 of those models and 1 vacuformed canopy, so I think that I'll ignore it.
An old friend of mine suggested that the shape of KP is more accurate. I have both kit, but I never made a comparison till now.

(http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x31/warhawk_photo/razno/La-5FNnose.jpg?t=1185615725) Did the La-7 have the same windscreen? One more question - which is the early type La-7 - the 3 cannon or the 2 cannon version? Title: Re: La-7 windscreen Post by: Massimo Tessitori on July 28, 2007, 04:02:46 PM Hi, :)
I think it's similar, apart some frames. But I would look for photos of La-7 windshield, they are not rare. Massimo |
