Ok, just to show I am in this GB I opened this tread. I will be building the HB 1/72 MiG (another MiG-3?)
In the tradition of cooking shows, "here is one I prepared earlier."
I am not exactly sure which scheme I will be building. I have got the HB decals but also a set from HAD for early MiG-3, Italeri decals in the spares box and an Alpha/RPM MiG-3 (but those decals look like crap)

I have finally started.
The typical Easymodel cockpit. No sidewalls or depth.
I drilled out the cockpit and added some details on the side:

WOW - that's a rather in depth build isn't it. That's dedication that is.

I agree Stuart, that is certainly a great display of dedication.
Not up to that standard but good enough for a closed canopy build:
All the white plastic is Evergreen, copper wire for the handle and Tamiya tape seatbelts with some PE buckles.
