IL-2 Shturmovik

- I was pretty much blown away by Tamiya build quality. It's the best kit I've ever built. Though.. I've only built Revell kits before 😛

- The 3-color camouflage felt too daunting to me, so I opted for a two-color version.

- I had a plan to attach both bombs and rockets, but didn't notice the instructions for drilling holes under the wings for attachment of the latter. Only realized it later when the wings were already assembled and markings for these hole-locations no more visible. So opted to leave the rockets out.

- Unfortunately there was no option to have the cockpit open. I considered using a saw to manually cut it open, but later opted against it.
