What was the previous quota?
Well the commisar visited and since i'd provided resources to the motherland this time, i'm expected to be exceding that target when he visited again :lol: It's the only way that the Soviet Union will meet the objectives of the 5 year plan and be more powerful than those capitalist pigs in the west!

Will hopefully be able to get involved with this one, without a kit currently in the stash eligible for this one, I am looking at the Academy 1/48 MiG 29A which is around £14.00.

If I pick this kit up will definitely get involved :thumb:

Well after browsing the local model shop (and the Airfix catalogue - What !! no IL28..) I think I'll be getting the Revell 1/72 P39, looks simple enough...
Come on guys give me a break, I haven't built an aircraft kit since at least 1982!

May well have a crack at this one since it is one of my favourite subjects.

Have been through my stash and dragged out a couple of Yak 28's.

Havnt built a kit in years, so could be interesting

Sorry mate, 1:48 isn't my scale. :blush:

You could try making masks for the stars if no one has any spare decals.
Same here, all my Soviet stuff is in 1/72 I`m afraid.

Have you looked at aftermarket decals on Ebay or Hannants?

Found these on ebay peejay. They are for a MiG 21 admittedly, but it`s a good collection and you may be able to adapt them?

I actually get my stash back today so i'll finally be able to decide what i'm going to build. The Hobbyboss 1/72 SU-47 Berkut is in there tempting me... :lol:

Hopefully Airfix will get their finger out and send me the Club Kit soon so i can build it for this GB! Failing that it may be a no show as my allowance is already spent for this month!!!
