I suppose white and light blue with red numbers.
Scarcey coherent with the background... perhaps the white paint wasn't too easy to wash off.
Thank you for sharing it.

Hi! Welcome to the forum! Your web site is *excellent*, and it was what caused me to start this thread. Thank you very much! Are any similar photos available on the Russian version of Ebay?

By saving the photo and adjusting the brightness a little, it becomes visible that the undersides are painted a slightly darker colour, so it seems that Massimo is correct (as usual!? Wink )

Something I keep forgetting to mention:
(1) There are other VVS images on ebay.de - I only link the ones which I think are useful because of their quality. The other photos may be interesting to other people, so I suggest that anyone else might want to look there too. I just insert the words "foto" and "flugzeug" in the ebay.de search bar (without quotation marks), then hit enter.
(2) There are LOTS of non-VVS photos there - those who are interested in Luftwaffe and Spanish Civil War (Nationalist) aircraft will find plenty to look at. Last night, for example, I found a series of 4 very clear photos of what I believe is an Italian Breda fighter in SCW markings.

Hi, Smiley
truly beautiful photos. The one of Il-2 is under the rain.
what plane is this? I suppose some Il-4 or similar type.

Nice pic!
It is Pe-8. You can tell from the canopy frame, and a small clue is "The navigator-captain A.M.Lebedev" - it means there is also a pilot on this plane, as well Smiley
Here are some nice pics of a great kit by Alex Ruchkovsky:

Cheers!

PS - I've just found the pic of pilot:

GREAT PAGES!!!

Thank you Renato, it was not easy! Smiley

The model of AR is a marvel.  Shocked
Just, think how one can feel when a new kit of the subject is released...

Hi Gents,

some 2500 photos for you to browse through:

http://news.webshots.com/album/550833578RUsEmU?start=0

It's especially interesting for armor fans, but the album has some VVS airplanes too. I just made it through the first 500 pictures, so if someone else discovers a real oddity, feel free to reply here   Roll Eyes

 Shocked ChristianK, another great collection!
I could not resist not to take a look despite I'm overwhelmed with work. I managed up to page 80. As collection mainly depicts scenes from a life (and death) of infantry, here is what I was able to find on subject of Soviet aircraft:
(I beleive that most of the tail section that could be seen on some of the pics belong to IL-4)

Hi Renato, Smiley
thank you for marking the exact links.
The Yaks are a yak-1 (the downed one) and a Yak-1b.

The Yak-1b photo also appears (and is discussed) in the following AWF thread, with some additional photos and a discussion of the inscription on the opposite side of the fuselage:

Hi John, Smiley
that's true. Pity that the slogan is not fully readable. Some characters of the first word are readable on the photo below in that topic. Perhaps some further attempt can  still be done.

Three very clear (but familiar-looking?) LaGG-3 images - "Red 27", winter camouflage:

Hi John, Smiley
the plane looks familiar to me too, but the photos are new. The Storch close to it could be a great idea for a diorama.
