Very interesting photo. Anyway I think that the plane could be camouflaged as the second one, but the surface was ruined after the cleaning of a winter white layer.

Interesting photo popped-up on scalemodels.ru forum.
Single-color late-type LaGGs?

Most Quickboost 'corrections' do not actually correct anything, but are just one-to-one copies of the kit part with some panel lines better defined or minor detail added
Further to this point: as many of us will have the 72d Eduard MiG-15 in the stash; I just got a QB "corrected" intake ring for that kit. The only difference from the kit part is the gun camera port is drilled out in the QB part vice the deep hole/port in the Eduard kit. QB saves you about a minute of drilling time, should you want that port completely open. I love the vast majority of QB bits that I have but have learned to look before buying for the above-stated reason.

Interesting Il-10, the image looks consistent with a grey-grey camouflage.

They have lots of interesting pieces and even many complete kits.

Looks interesting, I would know more. An adequate kit was just needed. Is this their first kit released?
Massimo

I believe this is their first 1/72 aircraft kit. Hannants' web site shows 515 products, both kits and accessories, mostly in 1/144 but in other scales as well, including 1/72 accessories.

Also a lot of armour.

I am just sad by all the people whining (in FB comments below) what they should've issued instead...
That tends to kill small kit maker enthusiasm fast.

Yes, I was disappointed to read those comments too, but it's always the same on almost every forum - there are always complainers who want something different, usually a different scale, or else some ridiculous aircraft that no one else ever heard of. Like a Yak-9...  Oops - that was me! Grin

Speaking of complaints, I'm suspicious that the windscreen shape is wrong, although it isn't very well visible in any of the FB images. Instead of the curved shape of the MiG-3's windscreen, the images (especially the first one and the last one) seem to show a framed assembly made of three flat panels, like a Yak-9, for example. I posted a comment on Armory's FB page asking if they could show an image of the canopy; let's see if they do it.
