Hi Massimo,
I am not sure. There was clear subject and deadline, so I was "pushed". I started some MiG-3s but I got frozen there. Originally I wanted to do also some Lavochkins to have all main VVS fighters in "my style" - a lot of plans, but almost zero internal motivation now. So we will see in the future.
Regards,

Hi Misos,
I hope that you will find enthusiasm again for this.
Eventually, we'll speak of this some day, after I'll have (slowly) completed my work on Lavochkins.
Regards
Massimo

Hi all,
I've made a revamping of the Yak-9 page. Many excellent profiles of Misos have been included.

The Yak-9 versions page http://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/pages/yak9/versions/versions.htm is very welcome, and provides a simple way of educating people regarding the differences between VK-105- and VK-107-powered Yak-9s. Several times my suggestions regarding the desirability of a new Yak-9 kit in 1/72 scale have been answered with, "Amodel already makes Yak-9s". True, but they don't represent the main GPW VK-105 versions of the Yak-9, they are the later VK-107-powered Yak-9U and the postwar Yak-9P. Thank you, Michal and Massimo!

Hi John,
the only fairly good Yak-9 kit in 1/72 was of Dakoplast. I built one a lot of years ago, and then the firm disappeared. The ICM has serious problems. Do you know further kits? Let's forget the Airfix one, of course.

Dakoplast Yak-9's were re-issued in boxes with "MODELIST" on it and was also re-popped
with the name "Eastern Express" name on them.

trust me ! I have them in all three boxes. :thumbsup:

Hi Misos,
beautiful profile indeed.
If you look at the stabilizer fillet and the mast from the photo, I think that all the ensemble of markings should be a bit reduced in size. Besides a small angle of the bolt should be overposed to the outline of the red star.

Hi,
Thank you for comments.
@Massimo - seems you are right, I will check it.
@Jason - how is your expected book about WWII VVS fighters?

Great job, but the spinner should be spiralled (likely red color)

Hi,
my impression of the spinner background is black.
Besides the outline of the tail star looks black too.

Hi,
I saw that picture at the link I posted together with the profile. I agree with the very last post there https://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/board/index.php?topic=2283.15.

One alternative is partially red spinner with white ring:


You suggest the second alternative - red (or black?) spinner with white spiral (btw, it looks like late Bf-109):

However, is it really spinner from Yak-9M? If yes, then gun is probably removed, compare it with other Yak-9M https://www.armedconflicts.com/Yakovlev-Yak-9M-t33562:




Another alternative is the most conservative - standard grey spinner. I chose this alternative until photo showing the whole Golovachev's appears.
